roundtable

Hey, gang:

I posted this elsewhere on the Internet and CheramieIII invited me to do the same here.

This is Les East with the Baton Rouge Advocate. I am working on a story in reaction to the NFL announcing the Saints' return to New Orleans, and I can use your help. The official announcement comes at 2:15 today.

I'm looking for comments from serious Saints fans about what happens next after Tom Benson brings his team back to New Orleans, albeit kicking and screaming.

If you would like to be quoted in my story, you can reply to this post or email me directly at reportersroundtable@hotmail.com. Keep in mind, that if we use your comments, they will be printed and attributed to you. We will need to use you full name and not just your handle.

My story will have a fairly narrow focus, i.e. the dilemma so many Saints fans must find a way to resolve -- how do you demonstrate the passionate and loyal support necessary to prove the Saints belong in New Orleans long term, when doing so requires you to put money in the pocket of the person most determined to take the Saints away from New Orleans?

I welcome your thoughts on that issue.

Fire away!

Thanks,

Les East
