Will the New Orleans Saints stay in New Orleans?
Can the city keep the team?
Will the Superdome be ready for 2k6 action?

Discuss.

I lived in New Orleans for a year back in 1996. Every home game was blacked out due to no sell out of tickets. Growing up in DC it was so bizarre to me. So I decided to got to one of the games. It was nothing like going to a Redskins game. Very sterile , "saints suck" attitude. I can't believe they stayed as long as they did in New Orleans. Probably find their way to LA or elsewhere. Don't think at this point the economy and interest can sustain a team. At best they'll get a breather and keep the team for another year but after the pity party is over they'll be shipped somewhere else to make some money for the NFL.

Livin' in San Antonio, quite a few people here have gone to the games. I think we filled the Alamodome up for both games we had. I want'em to stay here cause I think the Skins will go play the Saints at their home so maybe I can go see them.

I have been a Redskins fan all my life. I have lived in New Orleans MOST of my life but have never liked the Saints. But I do take offence to your statement of "PITY PARTY" I am a Hurricane Katrina Survivor that has relocated to NC. You have not experienced anything NEAR what Katrina was, it and its after effects are no PARTY in anyway.
Thank you and Please think before you make any statements about natural disasters and the effects they have on people.
