Saints Coach Moves Family To Dallas
NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Sean Payton says he's relocating his family to Dallas and the Saints say the club has given the coach its blessing to do what he thinks is right for his wife and two children.
In a statement released by the team on Tuesday, general manager Mickey Loomis says he is confident that Payton, who led the Saints to their first Super Bowl title two seasons ago, will continue to perform well as New Orleans's coach for years to come.
Payton, meanwhile, says he and his family have dreamed of settling in Dallas for some time and feel that now is the best time to make the move.
News of Payton's decision has not been popular with all fans, many of whom have expressed consternation and confusion on call-in shows and internet chat sites.
