  1. You're up in the WFL Draft buddy

  2. It's that time of year... The turkey. These ten year olds can put on a Thanksgiving, and yet I burn my Hungry Man.
  3. The arena is fine, except for the part about how it's not really going to be fine much longer. Geez, does any organization get more blowjobs for less than the Sharks?Arenas and stadiums that are fine (and really don't need to be replaced) are replaced all the time. Lest you believe a place like Turner Field actually needs to be replaced? Fact is the Shark Tank is a fine venue, and the Sharks continue to make bank off of it as it is the only arena in the largest city in the Bay Area (or for 50 miles in any direction), and will continue to do so if it is renovated further. They won't get that kind of sweetheart deal in San Francisco since the Warriors will be too busy paying off their private financing. Speaking of replacing arenas that are worn out pieces of crap however... how's Calgary doing replacing the Saddledome? Terrible. Never going to use public money, which is fair. The Flames have three billionaires in their ownership group. The mayor has gone on record say, you pony up the money for land, and we'll work on the prospects of getting shovels in the ground. Years of rumored designs have come and gone with nothing. The city is one more catastrophic flood from being completely screwed. On the brightside they have narrowed down a couple spots around the city that would be serviceable for a new rink. It's becoming more and more likely that the rink won't be on the stampede grounds. Also, good to be back!
  4. It's not too late, but it's going to have to happen before the Cup Final is over I think. I mean the Colisée Pepsi is practically ready, just needs some fine tuning, kinda like the MTS Centre this past summer.
  5. I for one love watching The Battle for the Lucky Charms.
  6. You have at least two very clearly different proposals in those images. The first and fourth belong to one proposal, the second and third to another. Yeah the last photo was apart of a link I posted a while back, but they removed it from the Vikings site. It's the one without a retractable roof.
  7. I think it'll be that one without the retractable roof. But the site seems to be right beside the Metrodome, wonder if they'd play at TCF well this new one is getting built.
  8. I'm not about to go back in the thread and read. This what I feel. If the deal works out, I really hope the Yotes can bring people into watch the games next year, especially being four games away from the Stanley Cup, and I hope their fans realize that there are plenty of other fan bases that currently have teams, or are awaiting franchise that would kill to have their team in the position that the Coyotes work out. The Jets are back, so obviously I am a little more positive that the Yotes will probably end up staying. But the fans better fill those seats next year!
  9. Uh... I commented on the game. Which why I said kinda wrong thread.
  10. Yeah they miss out on all the extra that comes along with getting a new Stadium. So what. I'm sure Viking fans don't care that they won't get to host a Super Bowl or an NCAA Basketball Regional/Final. This is one step towards staying in Minnesota, and that's all that matters.
  11. KINDA WRONG THREAD. DUMBASS! That was directed to me, not Tank.
  12. I really think right now. The only way that Quebec, Seattle or Markham.... is through expansion. And there probably isn't enough, actually forget probably. I know that the talent isn't there. Even though Bettman would love 32 teams.
  13. Off the market? Bettman expected to announce a tentative deal tomorrow before Game 5, with Greg Jamison.
  14. Honestly the only way I see LA getting a team is either through expansion, or the Chargers move up I-5 if they don't get a new Stadium, because they have to be next with a Stadium me thinks, but also lack solid fan support, something the Vikings have a ton of. Jags I doubt it now with Khan, and there is always the Rams. The NFL wants LA, LA kinda wants the NFL, but the NFL also likes the 31 cities they're in right now.
  15. I really hope that the Goddell, Rooney meeting went well enough for that actually to happen.
  16. If Wilf plans on selling I hope he tries for an owner willing to stay in Minnesota. I mean I don't know all the logistics that goes into making a stadium deal go through. But if your own state's governor wants the team to stay, only for the lousy house of reps to shoot it down. Such a stupid, backwards ass way of doing it.
  17. The Vikings won't leave, their stupid senate just needs to wake the up.
  18. I mean Minneapolis would love another Super Bowl, would love another Final Four, or Regional Final. It works, I don't even like the retractable roof stadiums, you're either closed in, or outdoors, that's how I look at. Also they want to capture that crazy noise that was generated at the Homerdome, this new one looks like a beefed up, modern Metrodome. I like it.
  19. Last hurdle for the Vikings new stadium I do believe go tonight. Also here are some conceptual photos of what the new stadium will look like, including the previous design, that looks like what Lucas Oil is modeled after now. Link. Note* Doesn't look like it'll have a retractable roof.
  20. Couldn't they just have it at LA Coliseum? Or is bench seating not good enough? Though I guess if you pay 1000 dollars or up for a ticket, you would want to at least sit in a seat. Hopefully LA can get that stadium.
  21. Or a tweaking of this. Colours obviously first, the logo has some good.
