The New Orleans 'Aints
It doesn't look like they will have a home, or even a home fan base this year. I saw where the Sept. 18 game will be moved to New Jersey, but I think the team needs a home for the season. Three spots come to mind:
1. Memphis. It housed the Titans in a transistion year, and I think the Liberty Bowl was used for them.
2. Shreveport. There is a stadium there where the Independence Bowl is played.
3. Birmingham. They supported the USFL very well two decades ago.
Three other possibles:
1. Los Angeles. No NFL team there now, why not?
2. Las Vegas. The gambling restrictions on local teams would be an impediment.
3. Houston, in the Astrodome after it's emptied of evacuees.
Of course, as I finished this, it dawned on me that the answer may have already been announced and I just missed it.
