Saints and Pelicans owner Gayle Benson and Governor Landry are in New York to try to lure two major events to New Orleans – the 2031 Super Bowl and a future NBA All-Star Game. NOLA-dot-com columnist Jeff Duncan says if New Orleans fails to land the 2031 Super Bowl, the city’s next opportunity would not come until 2038.
Benson’s NFL team will not be going to the Super Bowl this season; the players spent the day in the Superdome cleaning out their lockers.

Jordan says whether he plays a 16th season will come down to whether he can get approval from his boss – his wife.
