Bears-Vikes set for school as dome roof falls

MINNEAPOLIS (ESPN) - On the same day the NFL said it's moving forward with plans to play Monday night's Minnesota Vikings-Chicago Bears game at the University of Minnesota's outdoor stadium, a fourth roof panel collapsed at the Metrodome.

Three other roof panels collapsed early Sunday after a blizzard, forcing the league to find another home for the game. Repair work was halted on Thursday at the Metrodome because of unsafe conditions after the fourth roof panel collapsed Wednesday night under heavy snow and ice.

The league is now pushing ahead with the TCF Bank Stadium plan, despite concerns about the site ranging from field conditions to player safety.
