is disputed in some circles as to the amount of discussions that happened between Mayor Hardberger and the New Orleans Saints. According to the San Antonio Express-News, Mayor Hardberger encouraged Saints owner Tom Benson to sue the NFL and commissioner Paul Tagliabue to try to keep the team in San Antonio permanently.[6] No lawsuit was ever filed.

I have no doubt Benson had great concerns in the aftermath of Katrina, but the biggest you know what was
the San Antonio mayor.
