Re: Judge Says Saints Owner 'At War With Himself'
 

Probably a very easy decision to make. Tom is in a position where he has to make a deal.but he doesn't have the colleratal. We will never know beyond speculation what is truly the motivation of either party. I would imagine there's plenty of truth to Rita's version of events and I suspect part of Tom's motivation is legit too. I would also suspect something sinister from both sides too. I know I hate to see their family destroyed beyond repair. I know that.

To be honest, I am on the side that is loyal to louisiana and don't try to move our team like art model

Well, post-Katrina, I'll remind everyone it was Rita and Paul Tagliabue making it happen...

Go back, read, look at the articles...

Don't whine and say you don't know...

Face the Truth, Know the Truth...

Rita moving the team would geaux against everything documented she's done to the present...

Re: Judge Says Saints Owner 'At War With Himself'
 

Has anyone mentioned in these threads that this is becoming somewhat like Any Given Sunday with the part of Cameron Diaz played by Rita, Al Pacino by Sean Payton and the dead brother/owner guy by Mr. Benson? I've heard a reference or two to Major League.

Life imitating art ... hope it all works out like it always somehow does in the movies, :neutral:.

I don't have to do your research for you. It's a message board full of opinion. If you follow the Saints everyday as I do I am surprised you don't recall this.

A 5 sec google search brings this from 2012.

Can’t be worse than dealing with Jerry Jones.

Oh I bet it is waay worse than dealing with Jerry Jones. Jerry Jones may have his faults and meddling in the football operation is #1 but he earned the right to meddle. Rita on the other hand appears by many reports as a pampered and spoiled brat who treats people bad. Also, as an up and coming Asst HC with an opportunity to work with your mentor in Parcells you are willing to put up with probably just about anything. Fast forward to a now very proven SB winning coach you have more options and working with a wet behind the ears, spoiled and pampered owner that was gifted the keys to the estate may just not be one of them.

If the trust is so irrevocable why not attack that? Why his is family attacking his mental fitness instead? I have the feeling that trust isn't as irrevocable as everyone has been led to believe.
