A promise is a promise

Even with the increased revenue to the state, Gov. Kathleen Blanco says there is no money to pay the Saints or the city of New Orleans for services it provides to Harrah's as agreed to in written contracts.

What do you suppose would happen if I told the company that holds the mortgage on my home that I don't have the money to make the payments? I would think the next step would be foreclosure and that I would be evicted.

Perhaps, since she can't pay the state's bills, Gov. Blanco should be evicted in the next election.

Probably not a happy topic for Saints fans in New Orleans. If someone could give me a quick Reader's Digest primer of the relationship between Louisiana government and the Saints, it would be appreciated.

Then we'll move on and talk more football!
