Many more of these exciting finishes, ER visits and alcoholism will be on the rise in the Gulf South...

Kick em when they up! Kick em when they down!

Sung to the tune of "Satisfaction"

At least the Colts are an "HONEST" 2-6!!! LOL

Re: Benson Taken To Hospital

I'm glad to see he's ok. The 1st time I met Mr. Benson was in Atlanta for the Saints of course killed the Falcons that day but before the game I was hanging out at the Saints tunnel with my big flag draped over the railing. I got 20 signatures that day but the most valuable to me was Tom Benson's He waived at me when he came out of the tunnel with his 10 body guards then about 5 minutes later returned to the tunnel and waived at me again and I thought that was the end of it but before he went into the tunnel he started talking to one of his guys and then pointed at me. The bodyguard came over asked for my flag and pen and took to Mr. Benson who then signed it handed back to the bodyguard and waived at me again. It was like I was really noticed as a fan. Be well Mr. Benson, always have and always will be a Saint at heart!

Is that why he was taken to hospital? I don't have time to read the article.

No. He'd been jet setting to a number of events - horse racing, Pelicans' game, then the Saints' game, coupled with the fact he's 90, he probably received fluids before being sent home...

If the worst happens, the team slogan next year will be "Just What If, Baby"

He used to run the team like a used car salesman. Get a good player in the draft and sell them for a profit was his business model. After Katrina he changed.jmho He seems to have gotten a little wiser in his old age.
