I have been a Vikings fan for 33 years. I loved Red McCombs, previous owner from Texas, until he gutted the team in order to get the most value for his sale. I even like the Wilf's before the whole stadium drama started. But the way they have acted in about the last 5-8 years has been too much for me. The way they have handled the entire stadium process, the whole issue with the special teams coach and backing him, even after what he clearly stated, the Wells Fargo issues, the park issues, the parking ramp parcel, using basically everything but their own money to pay their share of the stadium, and now the street name issue. They continually make it harder and harder to cheer for their team. I patiently await the day they sell the team to anyone else, no matter where they are from.

you really need to get a grip. so you're a "fan" and yet find fault with the trajectory of the team. they're on pace to make the playoffs again and possibly go further.

how did they act with park? they're contributing money. is this Paul Ostrow? And Red McCombs was a disaster who spent diddly squat on the team.

Not sure they care. I suspect this game will sell out very quickly.

I'll be curious to see if it does. (And I'll most likely go, for the record)

Either way, this is another example in which the Vikings look needlessly petty. It'd be nice if they could figure out an arrangement to make this a doubleheader.

Heads Up! The Vikings will reveal who their first preseason opponent today at 3. Everything I've seen points to a week 3 home opener, possibly on National TV.
