Congratulations to Superdome manager Doug Thorton (a neighbor of mine whose wife Denise is also a hero in our city for her efforts to rebuild neighborhoods through the Beacon of Hope) and the New Orleans Saints for their triumphant return to the dome. Thank you to the NFL for their support of our city.
