Re: On This Day In Saints History: NFL Awards 16th Franchise To New Orleans
They sold it on racial equality. That was the main selling point. LSU & Tulane engineers designed the SD.
Saints were built to last for a long long time. Disney almost came in and ruined it. We got a team and got to keep our adult party town. Fla and NO have hosted 10 SB's. Draw. |

Hale Boggs and Russel Long received a franchise in exchange for anti-trust immunity for Rozelle to merge the NFL/AFL. Neither the merger nor the franchise were approved on face value. Dixon and Mecom Jr. are white, there is hardly racial equality there.... |
