goalie 10 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 i heard that too. i think we should get more teams in San Antio they really love the Spurs and it would be great to see a football team there but not this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigD4VT 11 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Honestly what else are they going to do? An NFL team can't operate in a city with no stadium and (for the foreseeable future) no people. New Orleans can't just clean up and be back to normal. This is going to take a very long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBlue02 11 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 They said the couldn't even get in the dome for a good 2 months to take an intial assesment. 2 inches of water on the playing surface,70% of the Domes roof has water damage,The Toilets are broken They are better off tearing it down and building a much stronger structure.

beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 I'd say the Saints won't see play at all in the state of Louisana this year. San Antonio sounds pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigD4VT 11 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Link  SAINTS PLAY ON FOR HURRICANE VICTIMS The New Orleans Saints will start the NFL season on Sunday as usual despite the havoc wreaked by Hurricane Katrina.  Most of the city was flooded after the hurricane, which ravaged the Gulf Coast and left hundreds of thousands of people homeless and many feared dead.  The Saints' Louisiana Superdome became a temporary home for refugees and because of damage to it and the surrounding area - not to mention the flood waters which have yet to recede - the NFC South team must begin their campaign with consecutive road games.  They visit Carolina Panthers on Sunday and NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue believes it is unlikely the Saints, who have moved their base of operations to San Antonio, Texas, will play in New Orleans this season.  Saints' players have visited evacuees in the Houston Astrodome and wide receiver Joe Horn said: "They went through this catastrophe, and they still want us to play football. They said 'Give us something. Go and win'."  After visiting Carolina, the Saints were supposed to play their home opener on September 18 against the New York Giants. But that game was moved to Giants Stadium and switched to Monday, September 19.  The following week, the Saints play at Minnesota, but it is uncertain where their scheduled home game against Buffalo on October 2 will be played.  Saints owner Tom Benson, general manager Mickey Loomis and coach Jim Haslett have expressed their desire to play home games at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge.

OFISHE8 10 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 My choices for the Saints are: Vegas or Mexico City. The NFL would love the tap into these two markets!! Adios New Orleans!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
