    Yet again the Vikings attempts to get a new stadium deal were met with roadblocks. This time it has become apparent that the only deal to be made is that they can tear down teh dome and build on it's current location. Somehow this is easier to get done politically than any of the other two proposed sites. Why exactly? If they do go with that plan it would mean a three year stay at the University of Minnesota's outdoor stadium and loss of revenue as well as other problems. Vikings owner Ziggy Wilf has been reluctant to use moving the team as a way to motivate the residents of Minnesota, hoping that they would help of their own accord. Sorry Ziggy I think it is time to get out the "big stick" and threaten the state with it. It would also help if you brought Goodell and got the league to back you on this because that is the only way you are going to get MN to do anything. They don't want another North Stars fiasco so hit them with the stick and you will get what you want.

    didn't they play at the U of MINN once before and that was a horrible and snowy mess?
