Saints withdraw 2012 Superbowl bid

Here's the one thing I could never understand.. it looks like the state has to cough up about 6 or 7 million each year to cover the shortfall from the hotel tax. Blanco continually whined about giving the Saints any money to subsidize the team.. and yet her constant delaying of getting a deal done has already cost the team of hosting a minimum of 2 Superbowls. The most recent estimate of the economic impact of ONE Superbowl is 300 to 400 MILLION dollars. Isn't that kinda like hitting the jackpot on a slot machine and then whining about how much you had to put in?
