My semi-uninformed guess is that the Vikings will end up moving.

Sounds like the worthless goons in St. Paul only are willing to 'renovate' the Dump in order to appease the Vikings stadium needs. Awesome, just what the fanbase needs.. Another 2nd rate, built on the cheap Dump to attend 8+ days a season. The whole reason we are even HAVING this discussion is because the state built a shiny new stadium on the cheap in the first place. If they just did serious renovations to the Met, there is no issue.

That said, if that's the only viable option in the state's eyes (the re-Dump option), I'm all for the Vikings moving. And as weird as it is for me to admit this, I've always said I was a MINNESOTA Viking fan, with emphasis on MINNESOTA, I will continue to be the LA/Anaheim/Industrial Viking fan (or whatever mascot they may change to).

And if that does happen.. I will be the first in line to point and laugh at all the anti-Viking supporters when the NFL eventually comes back to MN and the state ends up paying hundreds of Millions of dollars for a new stadium for the new team.

I said a year ago that politics would befoul the whole situation and the ownership (current or new) would be forced to head to LA LA Land and work on their tans.

The team formerly known as the Vikings will end up in the NFC Coco Butter Division (West) while the once was LA Rams will end up in the NFC Norris (North).

Last information I heard was that the only site the state will have a session about is the Dome site. The Vikings, rightfully so, are not very happy about it. Don't be surprised to hear relocation news by the Feb 15th deadline.

I've told you this before, Formo. I'd hate to see you guys move, especially to LA. I like the old NFC Central/North battles between us, you, da Bears, and the Lions. It's a long history, and one that has so far lasted my lifetime. We had the Bucs with us for awhile too but they never felt like one of us. They had no business being in our division.

As for LA, most fairweather fans out there. All Al Davis accomplished by moving to LA is get gang bangers to like the Raiders. For a long time, Raider fans were associated with low lives. It took a long time for the Bay Area to forgive Davis for that move.

The LA Vikings sounds horrible. Maybe change your name to the LA Rollerskaters, or the LA Fairweathers, or the LA Plastic People. Yes, SF people don't like LA people. They suck. They're fake. And they don't know sports one bit.

Find yourself a Lakers fan and start discussing who is on the bench for the Lakers and they'd give you a deer in the headlights stare. That's how LA "fans" are. At least they'd be able to name Kobe. Maybe one other player.

There's a movie called "Clueless" that pretty much defines that town. Or "Beverly Hills 90210." Those will be the future Vikings fans.

Yuck. :-&
Just thinking about it makes me want to puke.

Why do you think he'd never be a Packers fan? He might be happy. He wouldn't know what to do.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
