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.

Zero2Cool (7h) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup
Mucky Tundra (9h) : *winning MVP
Mucky Tundra (10h) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning
Zero2Cool (15h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (15h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (15h) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (15h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (15h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.
packerfanoutwest (15h) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : This might be the kill shot here
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Philly DL has come to play
