LA Saints, coming in 2008.

Yup. I think Tags finally convince him that the Saints were never going to be allowed to live in SA. He will sell for a bundle. The fee for a non-existant team (Texans 2002) was $750M. He may not have to pay ANY out clause, either. The state has an opportunity to end the agreement at about that time. I think they might. It would be political suicide to continue it with so many other rebuilding needs.

This is their best chance to move a team to Los Angeles, a better chance won't come like this anytime soon, especially since everyone in NFL circles rumored the Colts to be the favorites to relocate, but they're getting that nice new Stadium up in Indy.

The NFL will do anything they can to slip the Saints out of Louisianna I suppose. This isn't surprising at all.
