Rita Benson LeBlanc, family file suit claiming Tom Benson incompetent to control New Orleans Saints, Pelicans

This is good news for Nola. Rita is batshít crazy.

I was hoping Rita would get the teams. She would've been a trainwreck and ran the Saints into the ground. When she loses this lawsuit, and she will, Tom will probably completely cut her off. There must've been a real power struggle going on behind closed doors.

NBC Pro Football Talk Mike Florio:

"While a surprise on the surface, it’s not a shock that Mr. Benson decided to alter his plan to give the Saints to his granddaughter. In 2012, Rita Benson LeBlanc was (temporarily) removed from the football business due to concerns about her management style, which caused her to have 30 different assistants in six years. In 2013, the NFL rejected a “poison pill” in coach Sean Payton’s new contract that allowed him to leave the team if Mickey Loomis no longer served as General Manager, based on the belief that Payton wanted Loomis to remain in place as a buffer between Payton and Rita Benson LeBlanc"
