Hair on fire...

The assets within the trust set up in Texas do NOT include the Saints.
The assets within the trust will be managed by these people, but they still have to follow the rules of the trust. Not because they manage the trust, they can turn around and just give them all to the trustee.

From my own personal market research of living there 09-2011, no way. A lot of transplants and military in San Antonio with broad loyalties.

Texas fans are as bandwagon as they get. The stands were full when the Oilers were winning.

Simple question,if the worst happened would you be done with the Saints?

ScottF · 02-06-2015, 03:06 PM

so ridiculous
list the 'what ifs?' on a 100 dominoes and they still would all have to fall one by one, in the right order

Big question- you have sold out for 10 straight years, get $5 million a year from the state (who also pays Benson exorbitant rent for office space), and have a dedicated money-spending fan base... why kill the golden goose and move?
Spite?
please

Yes! New Orleans without the Saints might as well be Atlanta!

And the NFL as well!

20% of the SB's have been in New Orleans for good reason. There are only a handful of cities that can really sell that level of sizzle. I don't even know how many stadiums have been torn down since the SD, it's a lot I know that. So if these new venues are soo much better why keep coming back to the rickity old SD.

Pay attention just like they did in St. Louis, Los Angeles, Oakland and Cleveleland. If they want to move they will.
