Saints' defensive coordinator Rob Ryan's house is sinking, lawsuit claims
 

If you thought Saints defensive coordinator Rob Ryan is on shaky ground professionally if the Saints D puts up another lackluster season, things aren't much better at home.

The newly constructed $2 million Uptown home Ryan bought shortly after he was hired by the Saints in 2013 is sinking, according to a lawsuit he and his wife filed against the developer, builder and an engineering firm Monday (Aug. 17).

"The builders fumbled the ball," said Randy Smith, Ryan's attorney. "And Rob Ryan, of all people, is not going to let it just sit on the ground."

The ground, the lawsuit claims, is shifting badly beneath Ryan's house, which wasn't built on pilings or sufficiently spaced footings despite New Orleans' notoriously soft soils, according to the document filed in Orleans Parish District Court. An engineer hired by the Ryans determined that key joists throughout the house also are overloaded.

Rob Ryan sues over sunken house
 

An interesting little story in the Advocate today talking about how Rob Ryan and his wife are suing the contractors and architects who built his home in uptown New Orleans. Apparently he got the screw job. Let's hope we don't get screwed with a sunk defense for a second season in a row!

After reading the article, he does have some legitimate gripes, IMO ... or he is just trying to prepare for what could be a quick exit out of town?

Bring in the experts, make a reality show out of it and go for ratings, :).
