Letter: Hornets deal shows Benson’s savvy

RE: “What Others Are Saying,” The Advocate, Sunday.

It sure is comforting to hear that ole Tom Benson purchased the Hornets. Like they say, he sure is a savvy businessman.

With him owning the Hornets, why, there is no way they will ever leave New Orleans.

Why, as savvy as he is, I ’spect the state will be sending him millions a year to just stay put. Might have to build him a bigger arena or maybe even lease another office building from him.

Yep, he sure is a savvy businessman.

With ole Tom owning them Hornets, they ain’t going nowhere outside Louisiana.

De gov will see to it.

We have a football team. Why do we need a basketball team as well?
