I really don't trust Benson. He's got the sweetest deal in the NFL (the Saints are the only NFL team to regularly receive subsidies from their home state) and he's still always asking for more money.

This whole state is hurting right now. I know times are hard. I understand people are angry with Benson and don't want to give him their hard-earned money. But in the long term, what that team means to this state ... it's a great benefit in the long term. We need to keep them here.
