Vikings Stadium Bill passed by the House

Great news Vikings fans. Our stadium has taken the next step towards becoming a reality. Last night, the House passed a bill that would allow the Vikings to build their new stadium on the site of the current Metrodome facility.

During the conference, many members argued that if they didn't pass this, the Vikings still wouldn't leave. I'm glad there was enough common sense in that room to disagree.

Details of the bill are still sketchy to me, and I can't remember everything. ... Read More

Why the Cubs will break their streak...

For over 100 plus years the Cubs have been hampered by a lingering "injury". They have won and choked or just been flat out awful. They have given hope and taken it away. Well, once again they have given hope to the faithful fans of Wrigley and this time it won't disappoint.

This Cubs maybe made the biggest move in Franchise history this offseason by signing Theo Epstein. Epstein has already made an impact convincing GM's and Assistant GM's to agree to come work under him. Epstein ... Read More

Ponder this...

Well, the Minnesota Vikings have entered the Christian Ponder era. So far, so good.

The first game was against the best team in football and against maybe the Vikings biggest rival. Ponder handeled it quite nicely I thought. He put his team in a position to win and made some nice passes.

Today he gets his first career win. As a lifelong Vikings fan I started to think. How far away is this team from being competitive again? I started to think about how to offense and ... Read More

Week 3 NFL picks

Posted on September 24, 2011 at 03:23 AM.

(1)

Patriots @ Bills:
Even though the Bills have started out fast, I still give the edge to NE. Tom Brady will be on his game again.

Pick- Patriots

49ers @ Bengals:
I like Andy Dalton being an underdog QB, but I think the 49ers win this one. The Bengals just aren't ready to compete yet.

Pick- 49ers

Dolphins @ Browns:
Even though the Browns look much improved, their passing attack still isn't up to par. Henne has played ... Read More

Just another week as a Vikings fan

Another week down, another week that could have been a good one. The Vikings are outscoring their opponents 34-7 in the first half this season, yet they are 0-2. However, is there some moments that can make a guy think this team has a chance? I think so. They have shown that they can compete with two teams that are probably going to be in a playoff hunt. They have also shown that they can't finish off those teams. Hopefully they can finish a game one time and finally get some momentum going. ... Read More
