Here's a little story you probably never thought you'd be reading on a Sunday morning.According to a reliable source close to PFT, a few Saints left their natural calling cards on more than one of owner Tom Benson's vehicles.
Benson, in addition to the Saints, also owns some new car dealerships. And a few times a season, Benson brings a few of the new cars up to the practice facility and stadium in hopes of luring a wandering eye over to the shiny new ride.
The problem is, a lot of his employees, including the players, hate this act, because he doesn't give them any sort of a deal. So, at least two players decided to cover a few of the new cars with feces. No, seriously.
UPDATE: The Times-Picayune confirms the report.
On Saturday, when players arrived at the facility to continue preparations for Monday night's home game against the Packers, more than one of the cars was coated in a certain byproduct of the human digestive system.This story could be completely false and I still wouldn't feel bad at all for writing this up. You know how great it must be to take a dump on your boss' car and not lose your job? Welcome to the National Football League, where pooping on cars happens.
It's believed that two or more players were responsible for the mess, but we've yet to confirm the names of the suspects.
(Also, just to let everyone know how sad my little life has been, scouring Getty Images for a picture that would properly give this story justice might have been the most fun I've had all weekend.)

I've worked for self-absorbed, arrogant owners who wouldn't give their employees deals on automobiles or anything else for that matter. It's usually an idicator of how they treat all their customers.
So with that being said, "How do you know it was Tom Bensen's players who defacated on those cars and not some disgruntled customer who knew those cars would be an easy target!?
I guess Tom will have to go out and buy an elaborate security system with all his profits. Common sense would tell me to start offering better deals to his employees and customers. Then again, this is the real world and I'm sure some customer is going to pay the extra cost of TB having someone clean the poop off all those cars. What a shame !!!

The writer does a great job of illustrating the state of journalism and news today: "This story could be completely false and I still wouldn't feel bad at all for writing this up".

Wish some would take a dump on the United Airlines CEO, Glenn Tiltons car. He's dumped on his employees long enough!

Do the players give the owner a break on their contracts?

...as opposed to Browns players, who prefer to take a dump on their owner's field.

1st. Rich Helmes, should learn how to spell, and write before making fun at others.
2nd. I doubt their jobs are in JEOPARDY over these acts.
3rd. At least the players acknowledge the tough economic times for most of us and tried to make a point. They dont need any discounts. So i say thank you.
