They take their football serious in Minnesota, even if Randy Moss doesn't:
LOST HIS SHIRT: A Minnesota boy who preferred the Green Bay Packers to his own state's Vikings failed to persuade a federal appeals court that his football allegiances cost him his constitutional right to free expression. The Minnesota Civil Liberties Union sued on behalf of Rocky Sonkowsky, saying he'd been booted off a class trip to meet Minnesota Vikings receiver Chris Carter simply because he'd insisted on wearing a Packers shirt. But the school district produced evidence suggesting the real reason the fourth-grader was excluded was that he was a discipline problem--and even the Green Bay Press Gazette suggested that Rocky would have been better off never taking the case to court. "The details were better left in his student file," said the paper.
I guess they're touchy in that state because the Vikes suck.
