Metrodome

Play at the Metronome?

This winter?

I think five teams are looking to do so...if they can get their act together.

Take a look... "And then there were five!"


Seriously...anyone going North...to play inside?

.

Anyone?

Thank you Roy Hobbs fan.

Any update on this, Illinois Select Team Roster, etc.?

Are they finally about to implode the piece of junk metrodome?

No one else from the Fox Valley Conference? Just PR, Cary and Huntley being represented? What about Jacoby from PR? What about CLS? Vazquez, Gardeck, Kowalski? Plenty of pitching in the Fox Valley also.

I see there a couple future Heartland Hawks going. Good luck to them and their teamates.

Best thing about Mall is the Hooters on the top floor, otherwise blah,
University campus is very nice,
Kids playing in the dome is awesome,
Roads around the dome and the university need work, bring a GPS.
Everyone should love it.

I agree...a good Gravel Pavement Shovel is a must!

Come on Dave,I mean Roy.....What to you really have against Jacoby??????

Is there a point you'd like to make? If so, please come out and state it clearly, otherwise, making inuendo from behind a nickname makes you look cowardly.

From what I understand, games are no problem. You cannot have more than two players from the same team practice together during the off season. Many high schools play fall league games together.

From personal experience, I don't believe Roy Hobbs has any problem with Jacoby ildwaybb, and I will leave it at that. And I will agree with you ChiSox6 I don't think Coach Matsie is allowed to coach.

Nearly anyone who's been around here for awhile knows exactly who I am, so the difference is that you are hiding behind your name and throwing jabs, which is what defines the cowardice.

Unlike you, the life I have isn't scared to have people know who I am when I say something accusatory. Good luck though in your existence where your great sense of power and rightousness comes from typing anonymously on a keyboard giving you the credibility of a worm.

Your right.......Sorry if I offended you and others,with what I thought were friendly exchanges..No jabs were meant in dislike...nor to be confrontational..I apologize..please leave it at that.....Have a great day....

The Metrodome is thought to be an increasingly poor fit for all three of its major tenants (the Twins, the Vikings and the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers football team). These tenants say the Dome is nearing the end of its useful lifespan. Two tenants, the Twins and the Gophers, already have taken the steps to move out. The Vikings are seeking a new stadium. The building itself is structurally sound and could last decades without major repairs.

Ripcord-

How old is the Twinkie dome?

Useful life? Man, does everything have to be top notch luxury for everyone? We will see how well the University of Minn. likes it when they have to play OUTSIDE!!!! Ha

I was there many years ago in mid-May. Went to a game and it was like 40 outside (daytime.)Happy to be inside that day!

The Twins plan on a new outside stadium, right?

As a SOX fan, I'm happy to say that this will be the last year the Twins play at the MetroDome. The new stadium will open in 2010.

Seems like the fans don't like the goofy dome all that much either. I find it highly amusing that the Vikings are in danger of being blacked out because they still have 11,000 tickets to sell! They were given an extension to probably start giving tickets away to avoid a black out, but this is a home playoff game and as of yesterday they STILL have 11,000 tickets to sell? That's really rather pathetic and kind of sad. The Eagles are trying to rally their fans to fly to Minnesota and take advantage. I guess it's been talked about the fact Minnesota has some fair weather fans, but shouldn't this be a time when those fans get ON the bandwagon?
