Vikings fans endure one more turn on the stadium merry-go-round

It's a huge issue for Vikings fans, this stadium thing. But I hate writing about it. So here are a few links of stories on today's stadium news, where Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton basically dropped a big "fuck you" on Zygi and Mark Wilf as he quashed their hopes of building a stadium anywhere but on the Metrodome site.

* From the Star-Tribune, there's this story.

* The Pioneer Press' version of today's events can be read here.

* And ESPN's Kevin Seifert has his analysis here.

It really stinks to have to read about this every few days.

Draft due dilgence
ESPN 1500's Tom Pelissero had a lengthy Q & A with Vikings general manager Rick Spielman today where he talked about the interview process with draft-eligible college players.

Spielman's draft record has been mixed at best thus far with the Vikings. But if his selections don't pan out this year, at least we know it's from a lack of effort.
