I DO watch the Vikings whenever I can and I've been a big fan since 1961. But I can count the number of games I've attended in person over the past 50 years on one hand. Where I'll make several 5 hour trips from my Iowa home to the Twin Cities for Twins games every year, I have almost no interest in attending Viking games.<br /><br />So if Minnesotans don't want to do what has to be done to keep an NFL team, so be it. It's your collective decision to make. I'll just keep being a Viking fan, wherever they call home.<br /><br />Just don't expect me to change allegiance two years later when you decide it's fine to pay even more than what's proposed today to build a stadium to lure the Jaguars to relocate.JimCrikkethttp://knuckleballsblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7195084204316698108.post-27689350309549507082011-11-02T08:32:29.331-05:002011-11-02T08:32:29.331-05:00I was gonna say something, but as a strictly baseb...I was gonna say something, but as a strictly baseball fan, it would probably be meaningless anyway.<br /><br />But my wife says, "Let 'em go to LA!"GZimmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00343987749136219839noreply@blogger.com
