Vikings not likely to move to Los Angeles

The Minnesota Vikings are potentially a target of Ed Roski as he leads a movement to bring a NFL team to the Los Angeles area. Lester Bagley, vice president of public affairs/stadium development for the Vikings, has said that Roski’s group has been in communications with the Vikings, and that the team continues to rebuff the proposals.

“They check in periodically. They want to meet with our ownership. I haven’t heard anything in the last few weeks. But we basically said our guys are not ready to talk to them. We’ve got issues to resolve here. We’ve still got time. Our product’s ready to go,” Bagley said.

The Vikings have been looking into building a new stadium to replace its current stadium, the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. Former Vikings owner Red McCombs had started the process of building a new stadium in the Twin Cities suburb of Blaine, Minnesota. The plan was halted after the team was sold to current Vikings owner Zygi Wilf, who has been in favor of a new stadium in downtown Minneapolis. The Vikings current stadium lease at the Metrodome ends in 2011.
