The game is rescheduled for Monday at 6:20 central time in Detroit.
I believe FOX will be airing the game.

This is one of those terrible weeks in my life when I have to root for the purple.

Here in Winnipeg, the Stadium doesn't even have a roof. The seats (bleacher style seating) is just as open to the elements. This is one of the last few places to be 'open' to the elements. There is some controversy amongst other teams, when they come here to play. Especially the Grey Cup.

One of the things I love so much about Lambeau field as well, bleachers and open to the elements.

C'mon vikes, win this one for me!

You aren't rooting for the Giants Austan?

Your nemesis is out, perhaps for the season. In any case the streak is ended. I know you despise him but damn, he's one hell of a competitor and 20 years is pretty amazing.

Go Giants!
 
Re: Metrodome roof collapses under heavy snow

I need the vikes to win to help the Packers chances of getting in the playoffs. The Packers can't seem to help themselves so I'm reduced to this. T-Jack starting can only help their chances of winning. Of course he's all ready injured and out of this one. They're pretty much screwed.
 
Re: Metrodome roof collapses under heavy snow

I'm not sure what they're going to do with the dome. Next weeks is the last NFL game there, if it's not fixed by then why bother. The Vikings have been very firm in their decision not to sign a new lease with the metrodome.

Besides L.A. is looking for a purple and yellow football team to compliment the Lakers. I figure we could trade them to the west for the Rams straight up.

They should be well prepared, that's all they were thinking about yesterday obviously.
