Saints may stay longer in New Orleans

On the News in Baton Rouge last night was a snippit about LA trying to lure the Saints from New Orleans. But they said Tom Benson was resigned to the fact that a new stadium was not going to happen and that the State was going to do a $150 million renovation to the Dome and the Saints might match that to gain interest in the Stadium. Currently the organization is working out a longer term deal with the State.

UPDATE: Gov. Foster-No More Smoking In The Dome

Gov. Foster just signed a bill that will prohibit smoking anywhere in the Superdome for any events. I guess this includes the annual Tobacco Industry convention. :D
