BRIEF: Vikings stuck with Chicago Avenue address -- for now

March 15--If you haven't been following along, the Minnesota Vikings have trying to the city of Minneapolis to rename a portion of the street where their new stadium will reside.

U.S. Bank Stadium sits on Chicago Avenue -- and, naturally, the Vikings are less than thrilled about calling home a street that reminds fans of the Chicago Bears, one of their NFC North rivals.

For now, chalk up one win against the Vikings, even if it's off the field.
