Hmm, do we forget Benson is taking somewhere close to 20 mil a year, and climbing, from a poor state when his team was at one point had the 8th most revenue in the league? Do we forget this is a deal he brokered at least THREE times since his original deal with the state, going back before the deal is up and demanding more handouts? Do we forget him saying the practice facility he pays $1 a year for was totally trashed, when it obviously wasn't? Do we forget he threatened to leave to get Mike Foster to give him the new deal? Do we forget he agreed to a renovated dome, then when the state came up with a plan, he says no deal I want a new stadium or I am leaving? Do we forget he floated that he got offers to move the team to San Antonio BEFORE the hurricane, long before, as well as New MExico, and he floated there was a billion dollar offet to buy the team in L.A.? Do we forget Tags had to FORCE him to come back here? Do we forget he REFUSED to do anything about Haz or Venturi when we were obviously not going anywhere with either? And that's just off the top of my head. Benson is a scumbag, a sleazy car salesman. Yeah he did some good things this off-season, but if a bully beats your ass every day, then one day he doesn't, do you instantly forget all the other teams he kicked the crap out of you, or are you still leery? Well, count me as still leery.
