January 9, 2012 This really puts the game in perspective. Let's hope this story has a happy ending.
Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Joe Philbin's son is missing.
Police in Oshkosh said 21-year-old Michael T. Philbin of Ripon, Wis., was last heard from about 2 a.m. Sunday.
January 5, 2012 Will they stay or will they go? Looks like we will know this year the fate of the stadium and, ultimately, the Minnesota Vikings. It's good to set dates so it just doesn't linger out there forever, right?
Accelerating the push for a new Minnesota Vikings stadium, Gov. Mark Dayton sent letters Thursday to Ramsey County and Minneapolis setting
January 3, 2012 At lest now we will have one vision in charge of the Minnesota Vikings. Do you think he is the right choice?
After years of wondering just how things work at Winter Park, Vikings owner/president Mark Wilf stepped to the podium today and made it clear right off the bat whose neck is on the line for all football matters.
December 9, 2011 Despite the Vikings epic bad year, Jared Allen is still playing fantastic football on the field. Of course, Jared also isn't afraid to speak his mind and joke around. One thing that came out this week, just before their game Sunday against the Lions, is how much Jared hates the city of Detroit.
Minnesota Vikings defensive end Jared Allen may be suffering through a 2-10 season so far, but he's not letting it affect his dynamic play … or his sense of humor. The man who recently threatened to punch former teammate Ray Edwards "square in the weiner" during a game was very much in form through this last week as the Vikings prepared to take on the Detroit Lions.
December 6, 2011 Why do I have a feeling that after all the posturing and debating, the Vikings will end up with a new stadium right where the Dome sits now?
December 5, 2011 The New York Times is doing a series about the life and death of for Wild bruiser Derek Boogaard. It turns out the continued hits he took while fighting may have lead directly to his addictions and ultimately his death. You can read part of that series below. Should the NHL take this information and look into their fighting policy?
THROUGH THE NIGHT and into the next day, as the scrolls across the bottom of television screens spread the news of Derek Boogaard’s death last May, the calls of condolences came, one after another.
Among them was a call from a stranger, first to Joanne Boogaard in Regina, Saskatchewan, then to Len Boogaard in Ottawa. It was a researcher asking for the brain of their son.
December 1, 2011 The state of Minnesota got unexpected news withe this $876 million state surplus. However it looks like all Minnesota residents won't be receiving a check anytime soon.
Although they predict the state will end the two-year budget cycle with a surplus, the state's economic gurus are not dancing in the streets
December 1, 2011 According to Brian Hall of FSNorth, Donovan McNabb asked the MN Vikings to release him, of which, they are considering. With Jay Cutler's fractured thumb, will he go to play for his "home" team, the Chicago Bears?
No worries for MN Viking's fans, Christian Ponder has started the last five games and may just be what the team has been searching for. Do you agree?
November 17, 2011 Hey, whatever it takes to get this stadium issue resolved right? I picture a bunch of guys in Polo shirts and Dockers watching a game together. Wonder if they will have beer and nachos? What I really think they should do is watch a game together at the Metrodome. Then they will see the passion of the fans inside and outside of the stadium and how busy nearby businesses are for the game.
Maybe if everyone just sat down and watched a Minnesota Vikings game things would work out.
November 15, 2011 It seems like it's always one step forward and two steps back when it comes to a new Minnesota Vikings stadium. For people who wish the Minnesota Vikings would stay in Minnesota, is this a good sign or is it just more smoke in hopes of moving a stadium plan forward?
Ramsey County Board members on Tuesday unanimously approved a $28.5 million purchase of 430 acres in Arden Hills with the goal of using it for a Minnesota Vikings stadium if the state finds the money to pay for it.
November 9, 2011 Sounds like Governor Mark Dayton understands that having a professional team and a stadium is about way more than just building a playground to get an owner rich. It's about long term state revenue, jobs and community. Whether this leadership actually leads to a solution remains to be seen, but it's a start.
Gov. Mark Dayton Tuesday put pressure on lawmakers to step forward to help build a new Minnesota Vikings stadium.
October 18, 2011 Not exactly a shock, I would have been more shocked if McNabb was named the starter. The Vikings have nothing to lose and they need to see if Ponder can play as they look to their future. What better way to get introduced to the league than by playing the Super Bowl champs. What do you think, is Ponder the future?
