New Orleans Mayor Angry...still

Ray Nagin, mayor of a lot of dirt and rubble and buildings that have to be torn down, is demanding the NFL for a football team if the Saints franchise permanently moves to San Antonio. Let's just say he's demanding the "Cleveland model." and anyone who's been to Cleveland knows that this is not the model you want to be working with. Nagin says New Orleans deserves an expansion franchise in a league where the last two expansion franchises (the texans and the browns) have yet to really prove they belong in the league. The Texans have been a joke since the word go and are currently winless. The browns are from cleveland and have more desire to leave town than to stay and play football. But the overwhelming point of this is that what perspective owner is looking at this situation and says, "Expansion franchise in New Orleans, where the hell is my checkbook?" You'd sooner see the Mexico City Banditos than a team play in that below-sea-level hellhole. Oh yeah, what's the name of that team in Los Angeles? The..uh..the obvious place for an expansion franchise.
