    1.) This could have something to do with development near the Dome and Arena. There's a pretty valuable surface parking lot there that would make a great mixed use project.

    2.) This could be about Loomis moving on.

    3.) This could be about Gayle officially taking over the teams.

    ...those are my best guesses.

    Just bring back free Popeyes after the wins, and I will be satisfied.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    They wouldn't say it's the new G-League team if it involves the Pels and the Saints.

    Maybe it's something we wanna hear...or maybe it's something relatively mundane like new parking or a deal for concessions or something.

    It has to be about ownership right? Benson turned 90 this year.

    My guess is he is stepping away and will leave ownership duty to his wife.


    Duece McAllister just said on Twitter he thinks most people will be excited about the announcement.

    Maybe it's a multi year extension to keep the teams in New Orleans.

    Maybe it's two separate announcements for both teams?

    I think it's about the Saints running a new dual tight end offense with Cousins and Davis .

    Dead Money Loomis leaving would fit Deuce's description!

    I don't think Deuce is the type to dance on anyone's grave on their way out the door.

    My gut says it's mixed use development around the Dome/Arena and/or complete transfer of control to Gayle.

    I think Tom is "retiring" tomorrow.

    My first thought was announcing a new jersey sponsor but that wouldn't involve the Saints. Who knows.

    Not sure if Deuce would say that thing about everyone being excited if Benson were retiring. That activity thing around the arena and dome would be my guesses.

    Once again, this board provides a much needed chuckle. Thanks, I needed that.

    Actually, that's not a bad idea, with his hands they could never call him for offensive holding,

    This made me pause and wonder, but surely they wouldn't need a joint press conference for this right?


    ------------

    In a completely off the wall thought: what if they announced a new stadium being built that would allow both teams to play there? Also joint season ticket options.

    Asik has butter fingers. Defenders will easily slide away from him.
