    Im sure that doesnt count the surrounding areas. Which no one considers out state/non metro.

      Wait, wait, wait. Are you folks trying to say there is not something disturbingly different about people from Minnesota--those long forearms and large, protruding brows?? Just because they're nice on matters unrelated to hockey doesn't mean they can't handle the truth.

        The "two states in one" argument is more about political POV.

        Those in the urban areas do not see the world the same way as the folks in the rural areas and vice versa. Their particular wants and needs from society (be it government or neighbors) are very different.

        Case in point: Refugee resettlement (Trump's EO where counties have to approve) is readily approved by metro MSP counties; meanwhile Beltrami Co (MN) passed a "nope" position. Same state, 250 miles apart, light years away.

          OK, a better metric would be the percentage of people who live in a high density local district.

          By that measure, MN is the 26th-most urban state. Exactly average.

            I wasn't making any proclamations about the makeup there vs. other states - only that 60% of population is within a chip and a chair of Mpls/St. Paul rather than outstate.

              I understand that, and by the more accurate measure 73% of Minnesotans live in an urban area. We are in violent agreement.

                So what do the locals think of the Vikes' chances Saturday? Better or worse than you felt about NO?

                  Same. Depends upon which Vikings team shows up. They can play with SF but will they get outcoached? If the Vikings can gameplan against their fierce DL they have a chance.

                    SF could come out and lay an egg. Then the Vikes will not capitalize and squeek out a close loss.

                      Seems to me if the Niners get Cousins out of his comfort zone early, it could get ugly.

                        So basically have someone on the defense yell out "this is an important and meaningful game!" and he'll fall apart?

                          That's such a Cupertino nerd way of looking at it.

                            I'd say the status of MIN14 and MIN19 will be a significant factor.

                              Vikings and Seahawks each have a shot.

                                Yeah, Thielen and Cousins really seem to communicate well on the field, which will be a big deal, with the pressure SF's d-line and linebackers can bring.
