NOLA already has the conventioners and tourists. Bart, I hope this means more investment in the city, i.e. business, housing, education, health care, wetlands recovery.

And I think that we should arrange a name trade with Utah. The state of Utah is filled with bee and beehive motifs that make the Hornets a natural fit for that name. Also there is NOTHING Jazzy about Utah, not a bit, and for them it isn't even wishful thinking, they don't want to be jazzy. I’m a Saints fan, rather than a football fan, as well.

NOLA earned and deserved this. The Colts don't need more rings, Indiana doesn't need more encouragement in its seemingly all-encompassing obsession with sports. So whenever I felt a reflexive defensiveness, I then also thought, "Why am I defensive over Indiana sports?" And, it just seemed good and right that New Orleans stared off the 2010s with something positive.

I’m a Saints fan. There is a difference." My husband asked me if he is now married to a football fan, I said, "No, I am a Saint's Fan. Don't expect me to watch other games with you!" “To reiterate, I am not a football fan. I’m a Saints fan. There is a difference.”

Being a Saints fan is as much about the culture of living in NO, as watching a bunch of dudes kill each other. Now if NO could only get the Jazz back from Utah (wtf?), that would complete the whole package. Makes sense.
