[QUOTE="Packerlifer, post: 246004, member: 1242"] Sure, there's an architectural design out there for the stadium they want. But a design isn't a new stadium. There's still no consent from any level of public entity in Minnesota and no agreement or arrangemnt for funding and there's no progress on getting it. Listen closely to what Lester Bagley, Vikings' vice president and point man on the new stadium, has been saying lately. He's been talking more openly than any one else in that organization that the Vikings are frustrated and could be moved. He's expressing the sentiment of the owners they don't want to say publicly themselves. Public sentiments in poll after poll indicate there's little support for public financing of a new Vikings stadium in Minnesota and now in hard economic times the prospects are even less. Leaders from the governor on down are opposed to public financing of another new stadium. Turf is certainly part of the "home field advantage" of the Metrodome but visiting teams have always included the noise problem there and the league has warned the Vikings about their placement and volume adjustments calibrated to interfere with the visiting team. There's a clear and peculiar difference in the performance and record of both the Twins & Vikings at home compared to away and of top clubs when they come in to The Hump. Even in Minnesota they admit it's the Dome. Anyway, when the Vikings move we'll probably get the Rams moved into our division so there'll still be 2 dome teams in the NFCN and with horns on their helmets. [/QUOTE]
