NEW ORLEANS -- The future of the New Orleans Saints wears a pair of ultrachic black boots that ascend to her knees, not because it's comfortable but because the team has been on a roll since she put them on and you don't mess with fate. She cannot ... sit ... down, at least not for more than a few minutes. Did you know that the average executive chair is too big for a woman? Rita Benson LeBlanc, who can't be much more than a bowl of gumbo over 100 pounds, does. Behind her desk is a large gray exercise ball. That's where she sits.

The executive vice president/part owner of the Saints bought the ball because, ultimately, she was going to do sit-ups while she was at work. That didn't work out; she was way too busy for that. Now, it's just used for good posture. But LeBlanc rolls the ball out in the middle of her office on a winter Tuesday recently and belts out at least three sit-ups, just to demonstrate.
