    Around 20 inches at our house (south metro). I am currently working in Brazil and was scheduled to go home yesterday. My trip was extended through Monday so I missed it.

    Huge implications for the Vikes even past this week. They've been looking for a new stadium for a while.

    The NE/Chi game today looks like it will be a winter wonderland. Snow and winds at around 30 mph with gusts to 50.

    It was reported that Favre was inside the Metrodome early this morning with a shotgun aiding in the collapse, all so he can get healthy enough to keep his streak alive.

    Perhaps an omen for Favre to retire, lol.

    Poor Vikings fans though. It'll be tough to sell a new stadium to the people there.

    It happened before... it will happen again as long as there are still inflatable roof stadiums up north (I believe this is the only one still left).

    They should be able to. The University of Minnesota has a very nice brand new 50,000 seat stadium. It's smaller than Ford Field but how many fans are going to travel to Detroit on a Monday night on short notice?

    Problem is that the Giants only packed for an indoor game.
