Just reading Peter King's Monday Morning QB, and there were some nugget's about the Vikings stadium situation. I remember we were discussing that last week, well, here they are.

The Metrodome sits on the smallest footprint of any NFL stadium, contains only 200 club seats, has one traffic-clogged narrow concourse for the entire stadium, and 28 NFL cities have gotten a new venue in the last 20 years. Minnesota and the three California teams have not. At this point there have been no substantive talks between the state and the Wilfs, who plan to contribute about a third of the costs for the new stadium.

Oh and another fantastic nugget from that article is just above the stadium stuff, about Jared Allen. Another topic discused last week.
Quote:
What the Vikings got:
Jared Allen, DE -- The league's best all-around defensive end has 21 sacks and three safeties in 22 Viking games.
6th round (187) John Sullivan, C -- First-year starting center on one of NFL's best lines.
