I believe there is a city in South Carolina that said no to building a stadium at taxpayer expense. Me thinks the days of taxpayer funded stadiums is nearing and end. I would love to se MN lead the way on this front. And as for the Vikings, Red would love nothing more than to move them to LA, but LA has no interest in funding a stadium for him. They did get to vote on it. I do not trust my elected officials to not fall prey to big bucks and say no to a stadium. Ron Leurquin Nokomis East REMINDERS: 1. Think a member has violated the rules?
