I feel sorry for Minnesota...
Not only are they stuck with Michelle Bachmann, they're stuck with the Vikings. :P

2. And the Mall of the Americas!
Would you want that in your backyard?

10. I'd hate to have to shop there. Saw it last summer only
because I was travelling with my parents to see my sister up there, and it was one thing Mom could do in her wheelchair.

You walk and walk and walk and walk and walk, so it is good exercise for some of us, I suppose. But you just pass multiple versions of the same stores, over and over.

I'm not a shopper...I like to get what I need, and get out, have better things to do with my life. So it was ironic that I travelled for 24 hours to go look at shopping center, yuk. But Mom is worth it.

The Vikings will outlast Minnesota. ;-)

6. We are only truly happy when our sports teams suck
Success makes Minnesotans nervous - although the Minnesota Lynx kicked ass!

7. Yes, but how long are they stuck with Bachmann.
She's polling very badly for approval in MN even within her own district. That makes me think she's vulnerable.

8. They should make their state song "Stuck in the Middle with You" by Steeler Wheels
"Clowns to the left of me, joker to the right, stuck in the middle with you"

9. The MNF game really was about how good the Packers are
these days more than it was about how bad the Vikings are, which is plenty.

Aaron Rodgers throws the ball as well as any QB in the HOF and better than most of them. I think of him as the Frankenstein QB - Peyton Manning's brains and cannon arm, Joe Montana's cool under pressure and John Elway's ability to move and keep a play alive, all combined in one guy. He's terrifying now and will only get better. And I am a lifelong Vikings fan.

"Frankenstein QB"

Good one.

All the leftover rejected parts were given to the Vikings. :D
