I would also agree making this apples to apples is not worth it. But in case your Google is broken :lol: here is what Forbes has to say about NFL Team values as of August 2012 . If you subtract the 22% bump the team got after the stadium deal, the Vikings are dead last in Value and Revenue on this l...

I'm sorry were you saying something? I couldn't hear you over the sound of the theme music playing in my head: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88ft_enkr9c&sns=em I like the modern look and I was excited to see the grass berm seating in both corners! The wood finish is a great affordable substitu...

What's wrong with Sochi? I hear it's the Miami of Russia

I don't think there should be any question. The Twin Cities could pull off a 2024 Olympics, and we'd look damn good doing it.

The sad reality is that the Twin Cities could almost host all of the ice events of a Winter Olympics right now. We just don't have a mountain.

Lutsen could handle the ski portion i believe.

...Soooo Looks like Mortenson will have incentive to get done early: Vikings stadium pact puts premium on deadlines (Free) They really captured a "moment" between John Wood, left, and Ken Sorensen http://finance-commerce.com/files/2013/02/Stadium6x.jpg F&C also linked the contract if a...

Another name is officially in the hat: http://www.startribune.com/politics/statelocal/191556691.html More than a decade after leaving political office, Jackie Cherryhomes on Saturday launched her bid for mayor of Minneapolis. The former City Council president told a large crowd at Standard Heating a...

What specifically on the post reply page did you need in terms of BBcode? Little hard to remember the layout as the old theme has been disabled. The advanced text features were nice but not really needed. The advanced video, and url buttons are about all I can think of. Video allowing things other ...

...after all, all transit is subsidized in MSP and the most economical option from a purely bottom-line accounting perspective is to shut it down altogether. If a bus is better than a streetcar simply because it costs less, a walk is better than a bus because it costs nothing. Lol. Immediately got ...

This place has really made progress in just 3 months! Thanks for the pics Nick.

Not interested in politics on this thread either, but I don't think we need to be tossing out profanity on a board that now has 300 posts and 10,000 views for a topic that has no public proposal. Chill Ppl.

Maybe this isn't the feedback that's being asked for here, but could the default for links be that they open in a new window?

Should be an option in your browser preferences.

Oldly enough this was on my mind yesterday. I drove by an old empty Walmart, and two blocks later is the new 'Shiny' Walmart. Are cities that house these stores held hostage by their jobs and taxes such that they can't request even slight remediation before the store builds new and abandons their ol...

Sweet! It's like they finally listened to my feedback...

Fun little tidbit: For anyone who is so inclined you can run AppleMaps on your desktop using the iPad Simulator in Xcode!

Also, I take pictures- lots and lots of pictures - of all the development going on. If I had the slightest idea how to put 'em up, I'd share 'em with everybody. Hey Razorback, welcome! We all would certainly love to see your photos! I went and posted a couple videos over on our Images Thread that s...

So we still haven't come to a great consensus on posting images, although they haven't been bad. I tried imageshack and agree with FISHMANPET that's it's not very good. Anyway, Razorback recently introduced himself and noted that he would be willing to put up some photos if he knew how, so here's a ...

After looking at that silly fantasy rendering 3 or 4 times I got to thinking... We should salvage the old JumboTrons out of the HomerDome and hang them in downtown St. Paul :) :) Then the image of Vintage Twins players on that wall could become a reality.

The News media got a hold of the data PhilmerPhil referenced in his post on Saturday. Minneapolis has released a comprehensive study of Bicyclist-Motorist Crashes over the past decade. (2000-2010) The analysis found that crashes are complex events and there is no one factor that is contributing to c...
