so it can't take alot of weight? then please explain why it didn't collapse from snow in previous storms. I refuse to believe that Minnesota hasn't gotten any snow storms since the stadium was built. Also don't you think they should have designed it so it could take some weight? I don't think snow is unheard of in Minnesota.
I assume that the usual snowfall would just melt off of the top.
Also maybe the age of the roof had something to do with it?
Maybe it is just symbolic of the whole Vikings season. Childress getting fired, the Randy Moss fiasco, Favre's streak breaking, being mathematically eliminated from the playoffs... the list of disasters goes on.
^Oooh, a frosting-covered pie crust!
It's still hard to believe this is real...

but that stadium has been there a long time, surely there have been some bad snow storms in Minnesota before this one.

so this is the 5th time it has collapsed. It is clear the thing was poorly designed.
"Clear" is such a lame word. I suggest "obvious."
Colts are tied for division lead. I fully expect them to win the next game, then lose the second, denying us from the playoffs, just because its been that kind of season.

It could be worse , you could have the type of season The Cowboys had. We had to wave goodbye to the playoff's long ago. Oh well there's always next year.
It could be worse, you could have not won a Super Bowl since '86 (my Bears), or how 'bout never (Vikings)?
or you might have a chance to win one this year, but you'd have to say thankyou to a dog murderer.
Can I just say how sweet it would be if Farve's last play ever was a sack by the Bears that knocked him out of the game? :-)
Also, Bears in the #2 spot right now, which would mean a bye and a home game.

Anything to make him retire. Ive had enough of Favre, retire and enjoy it number 4.
6-10 for The Cowboys . Oh well there's always next season.
maybe. Don't forget about the lockout coming. It might be two years before the cowboys play another game.
As for the eagles, I hope Green bay beats them next week. I don't want the dog murderer to be the one that wins a superbowl for them.

I really hope the issues of playing next season gets resolved , what to f*ck are the football fans supposed to watch instead , soccer?. Yes i hope Green Bay destroy the Eagles next week ,Vick deserves nothing in the NFL. (and because im a Cowboys fan ;-))
So how about that Green Bay win over the Eagles ?, theres always next season Vick.
My thought: now the Bears get Seattle instead of Phily. Yay!

An easy win for Chicago.

I'm sure the Saints were thinking the same thing.
