So Motley Crue is not very good live. Vince Neil can barely sing anymore. Sounded like he was out of breath the entire time. Kiss was good live but it reminded me how I don't care for many of their songs. A woman did flash everyone so that was fun. _________________

Hey fellow Vikes fans. Been absent from the forum recently. Got a quick question though... Does anyone know what hotel the team stays in on game day??
I'm from new York and im going to my first Vikes game in Minnesota When they play Arizona this year (seen them vs buffalo/jets/giants) and would love to see some of the players in person. I've been to a bunch of buffalo games (even though I could care less about them) and I know their team has a hotel they stay at in buffalo that I've been at. Just wondering If the Vikes do the same thing. Let me know. Thanks guys _________________

This isn't Viking, football, or really even sports related, so I figured I'd post it here. The head basketball coach at my alma mater (Southwest MN State) was involved in a car accident last week with a drunk driver that took the life of his 5 month old baby. The other driver had a BAC of .351. This is his third arrest that is drunken driving related.
Don't drink and drive. Especially not when you are at almost 4 times the legal limit. Get a driver. PLEASE!

cars, alcohol, and stupid decisions - a very bad combo.
sorry for the tragic and senseless loss of life. _________________

The Las Vegas oddsmakers don't pick any of the four local pro teams to be very successful this year. The Vikings are 100-1 longshots to win the Super Bowl; the Twins opened at 80-1 and current odds are 1,000-1 for them to make the playoffs; the Timberwolves are 75-1 to win the title; and the Wild is 18-1.

Would anyone be interested in Minny for a GM mock draft? Draft only. Check GM forum if yes. _________________

Good thing the team is no longer in Mankato.
| Quote: | EAGLE LAKE, Minn. -- The head football coach at Minnesota State was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of child pornography, sheriff's officials said.
Todd Hoffner, 46, was in custody on suspicion of using underage people in a sexual performance and possession of child pornography, Blue Earth County Sheriff's Capt. Rich Murry told the Mankato Free Press.
Hoffner had not been formally charged by Tuesday evening, and it was not immediately clear whether he had an attorney. His home phone number was disconnected.
Messages left for sheriff's officials and prosecutors were not immediately returned to The Associated Press.
Hoffner was escorted off the football practice field Friday and has been on leave from his coaching position since then, the university said in a statement. Spokesman Dan Benson added that a university investigation is pending.

They usually always have a couple mind baffling ratings. Like this year Winfield is something like the 5th highest rated CB and Champ Bailey is still a 95, and as you pointed out Chris Cook being a 74. Seems like the CB's haven't been done too well. |

The rating system is awful. and you can't even edit this year.
So with that in mind, I'm not buying the game! _________________
