Speaking of taxes, there has been a lot written about how the Saints are the recepients of state tax dollars throughout the years and the various agreements and contracts that started from the time Gov. McKeithen built the Superdome to the current agreement that Gov. Jindal recently reached that should keep the Saints in the state through 2025.
Since most of us are citizens of the state of Louisiana but most are not residents of New Orleans or greater New Orleans, can anyone remember the last time any of the Saints players traveled to north LA on a fan or publicity trip?
Can't we have an exhibition game at least once every other year in Independence Stadium? (They could do the same in Lafayette)
Go Saints but since this is truly a "state" team, how about showing a little love for the fans in other parts of the state who are rooting just as loud as anyone for your success.
