Pro Sports Far From Easy in New Orleans

There is a waiting list, at least 10,000 deep, for Saints season tickets. There is no such support in San Antonio, where there are far more Cowboy fans than fans looking for a home team. The New Orleans/Gulf Coast region, from Lafayette to Mobile and Pensacola, has more than enough folks and corporate support to keep the Saints quite profitable. The people down there are football crazy. It simply takes a smart businessman to make it work. Is Benson smart enough? I hope. Those people deserve their weekly distraction of the Saints.
