Ed Rendell, Pennsylvania Governor, Rips Vikings-Eagles Postponement

Filed under: ,

There's been no shortage of criticism surrounding the NFL's decision to postpone the Vikings-Eagles game to Tuesday despite massive snowfalls hitting the Northeast. On Monday, criticism came from the governor of Pennsylvania himself.

"Vince Lombardi would be spinning in his grave," Ed Rendell said in a live interview with a television station.

Despite concern about the level of snow and how it would effect those traveling to the game, Rendell was strongly opposed to the delay.

"I think it is a joke," Rendell said. He later said, "This is no way, shape or form a blizzard!"

The game was originally scheduled for 1 p.m. Sunday, but was flexed into the primetime spot on NBC. It will now be played Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.
