Yeah I read it - it didn\'t seem like that was the point you were stressing. If your point is that it\'s wrong for the Saints to do this to the State - OK. I disagree. If the team feels it is generating a lot of money for the State and in the process it is suffering and making less money than it could elsewhere, then IMO, it\'s not unfair for the team to ask the State to donate some of the profits that the state is making to level out the team\'s opportunity losses as a result of staying in the state (and thus making the state more money). Seems fair to me.
