Watching the video of them plowing the snow at that stadium was ridiculous. I heard there was 4-5 ft of snow in there... Is that right?

Yes. They supposedly have an army of a couple hundred people working full day shifts to shovel it out right now since tractors will destroy the playing surface.

No excuse for the Bears not to open a giant can of whoop-ass on the Vikes. They get them outside, w/o a healthy QB, and should have a huge chip on their shoulder after their nationally televised crap-fest.

Right now, the forecast is for 0 degrees F, 10-20 mph wind gusts.

That should make for some solid entertainment on Monday night.

So a win over a banged up Vikes team and a loss by GB to the Pats and we'll be celebrating a NFC North Division title, I love our chances.

Anyone hearing anything about the game possibly being moved to Soldier Field?

No. It's being played at the University of Minnesota.

I read that, but I have also heard some whispers about it possibly being moved to Soldier Field now.

If that actually happened, then Lovie truly has the world's largest horseshoe stuck up his ass. With the all the injuries their opponents keep having, the Vikings having 3 injured QBs, moving a road division game to Soldier Field would take the cake.

Vikings ask their fans to help shovel out the stadium.

If they were still in the playoff race I could see them getting a lot of volunteers. In the current situation however...

On the radio they said that "volunteers" would be paid (kinda not a volunteer, but still). I'm sure there's more than a few folks who'll throw on a coat and make some quick cash depending on pay.

And to those people who are unemployed and want to work for the Vikings in any form, signing up for something like that is a great way to get your name into their database.

TCF Bank Stadium is being listed as "questionable"

Sorry I assumed that by "volunteers" they meant volunteers and not temporary employees.

Illegal Canadian immigrants, the unspoken problem of America's great lakes region.

 

 

John Clayton was on ESPN Radio 1000, says U. of Minnesota is very much in doubt now due to many issues. Possible venues: Indy, Detroit and St. Louis.

It was a dumb idea in the first place. 4 feet of snow in a stadium that has been shut down for weeks. Move it to Chicago morons.

You can't have it in Chicago, giving the Bears an extra home game all together is completely unfair to the Vikings.

That would be unfair!!!1!!1!!!111! Let's have the game even farther from our fans!!11!!11!!

Who cares about the Vikings, they're done. It wouldn't be fair to teams like the Packers or Tampa, who may be in a close race with Chicago.

That's a fair point. They should allow the Vikings to choose one of those three indoor sites.

Please, Please, Please have it in St. Louis!!! :pray

I'd drive down for that opportunity. That would be sweet.

If it was in any of those cities, it would be 3/4 Bears fans.

 

It would be like a home game.
