So with the Metrodome collapse...

[skargo]

is it the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back?

If that team is in LA next year I wouldn't be surprised.

This is just too much of a coincidence....rain most of the fall, a blizzard that collapses the stadium roof....

I wonder if Brett sent some racy cell phone pics to Mother Nature and pi**ed her off....??

It has collapsed before. No big deal. Bummer about today's game though.

WOW!!! I can't believe how far they will go to keep Favre's streak alive

Your telling me that a Dome in Minnesota can't handle 2 feet of snow???

Just goes to show they should have built the team a new stadium with a real dome long ago.

Hey, at least Detroit is finally getting a Monday Night game hehehehe

Hey now leave Detroit alone, they did their part in the NFC Central this week.

Seriously though, the Lions former stadium once had the roof collapse, at the time the Detroit Pistons(NBA) also played there. The remainder of their season had to played had Joe Louis Arena due to the damage. Hopefully it's a quick fix for the Vikings.

I actually like Detroit, and think they are a good team, despite their record.

Little bit of white duct tape, crank up the air compressors and up she'll go!

Naw, I can take the ribbing for sure. You need thick skin to live around here. The Lions finally seem to be heading in a direction. Time will tell if it's the right one, but at least someone is now steering the ship.

Agreed. How do you all think FOX knew to leave the cameras rolling?

Re: So with the Metrodome collapse...

My father in-law, who lives in Michigan, thought it was pretty humerous. I guess that's one way to get a new stadium.... Guarantee Brett will hobble out on the field tomorrow nite. Man, I hope I have to eat my words...

Actually, it first collapsed the first time it got significant snow on it after it was built.

It's the Hubert Horatio Humphrey Dome, a good name for a big windbag.
