That was awesome, I'm sure it will make its way to youtube but I recorded it on my DVR, in fact I'll record it with my phone and upload it right now.

This could actually be a bad thing for the Pack. Minny plays Giants and Bears in Minny, now they might play neither. Bears luck continues.

And this is why I call that place the "dumpdome."

Fox9 put the video on their website. It would suck to be one of the guys shoveling the snow off the roof.

I wonder just how hard it will actually be to repair that... I think it will be really difficult...

I know they have to play this weeks game at Ford Field because NY didn't pack warm clothes or whatever but if they can't fix the Dome before next week's games, do you think they'd play at TCF Bank Stadium or Ford Field? Hopefully it's TCF so the Queens can have some sort of home field advantage.

Gophers spokesman said would be logistical challenge to host Vikes vs. Bears week from Mon at TCF. But they're willing to look into it.

Now I wish the Vikings would have went 14-2 this year so that they could have hot HVA but not been able to actually play any games at home.

As amusing it is to see the baggydome collapse, we badly need the Vikings to beat the Bears and it would really suck if that game instead ends up being played on a neutral field.

Imagine the disaster if this happened during the game. Mario Manningham could be going up for a deep ball in the secondary and seconds later would have been covered in snow. Imagine the announcer call on that too lol.

"Deep ball to Manningham...ohh the roof collapsed!"

I'm sure it would have been another classic Paul Allen call.

On Sports Center this morning they were saying they think they can patch it up in time for MNF, so I bet they play there. TCF is basically out of the question from what I've heard.
