I appreciate the enthusiasm. You guys write your emails. I pay into both the city and state shares of the stadium, and I don't give a [censored] whether the Vikings stay or go. I also don't think Zigi is ever going to buy an MLS team because 1) He won't spend 10M to make 60M on the Vikings stadium, and 2) Garber won't sell him the franchise if he wants it because WE havent built the market MLS wants yet.

Wilfs, MLS, and the legislature can all suck my dick. I'm here for the Stars.

I'm with hairygrump, but in a nicer, gentler way: I'm here for the Stars. Whatever comes in the future, I'll deal with it, but I'm a Stars fan.

Representative Lanning said yesterday that the Vikings would like to open up the roof (retractable roof) if they bring in a soccer team.

I understand that the introduction of an MLS team will cause us to lose some of the incredible intimacy the Stars have provided. However, our first concern is (1) praying to whatever deity you ascribe that we have a team next year or the league takes pity and (2) an MLS team is at least 5 years on from now. If they broke ground tomorrow, we'd be 3 years out at the earliest.

I thought the league agreed to support the team for three seasons
