Things have got to be bad at the Vikings’ camp. At 1-3, with their coach under fire, the Vikings have enough problems that they sure don’t need to go out and find more trouble. But I guess they figured that at 1-3, they had everything under control. I guess that’s why cornerback Fred Smoot plus another unidentified Viking chartered a boat last Thursday night for a sex cruise. Yes, a sex cruise!

According to a lawyer who is representing a boat company, Smoot and the other player rented a boat for some of the members of the team.

Sgt. Haans Vitek told reporters, “It was a stag party atmosphere on the boat with allegations of strippers and sexual conduct. We are still trying to sort some things out.’

According to reports a woman who worked as a hostess on the ships also called the cops to report the debauchery. She mentioned, ‘possible prostitution, drugs and live sex acts’.

Well, to be fair, it’s really not a party unless you have hookers, drug and live sex acts. According to the lawyer for the boat company the cruise include oral sex, masturbation and playing with sex toys. Isn’t it nice to see that the Vikings are taking their terrible season so seriously?

Imagine what kind of party they’d have thrown if they were over .500.

I don't hate the NFL, but I have a strong distaste for the ViQueens. There is more smack material in this than a Lions fan could dream of. We can now truly say that the Vikings blow. :D

You know, when I saw the subject heading "Another Reason to hate the NFL, Jim Rome Article"

Part of me kind of figured that Jim Rome was in some way another reason to hate the NFL.

That no talent arse clown is definitely a reason to hate sports media.

As for the Viking story- there's a lot of allegations, I'm curious how it will shake out. It wouldn't be surprising if it were true.

The bright side is that there were live sex acts and not dead ones. That would just be plain creepy...

Gee, pro athletes using their fame and money to get laid? I, for one, am absolutely SHOCKED! :eek:

Yes, but this happened on a boat!

The HORROR!!! :rofl:

That reminds me of an old Canadian joke.

Q: Why is American beer like sex in a canoe?

A: Because both are phuckin' close to water!

Minneapolis sports talk is terrible anyway, so you can just imagine the pathetic level of discussion this has generated. These allegations are on the radio 24 7 up here. Every 5 minutes. Fred Smoot has threatened to sue anyone who talks about anything outside of the most generic terms, so all radio and print try to hint.... It's our current claim to fame, along with a special Legislative session to build 3 new stadiums for the Vikes, Gophers and Twins for $1.2 billion.

Anyone know what a "Dallas" is? Apparently it happened on the boat. :rolltide: :rolltide:

I think thats when you are about to score and then she fumbles the ball(s). Also known as the Leon Lett.

How the heck were they able to perform sex acts when they were too busy manning the oars?

Sports talk radio in general is horrible (which explains Jim Rome and WSCR in Chicago), so is Minny sports talk bad by sports talk standards?

If so, what are they doing, drooling on the microphones?

I think you mean the Whore-er

At least they're trying to find someway to score. I wonder if Culpepper coughed it up early? :la:

Amen brother.

First, they only talk about Minnesota sports (who'd a thunk it?) so my Chicago sporting sensibilities are horribly offended.

Secondly, anything that Mike Morris of the Power Trip says is comparable to Boer and Bernstein, but even more amateur. Like Howard Stern of sports, without the naked chicks for you to visualize. If you’re interested, stream this between 6-9am

And lastly, there is a regular morning talk show like the old Roe and Gary, again a little more amateur. Enjoyable, but meh….. they bring in the sports guy, some old coot (Patrick Reusse?) who has been covering Minnesota sports for an eternity, but can’t remember names, places or local team names, like the Timberwolves. Think Harry Carey, but not as lovable. This dude is absolutely grating, but I can't not listen, like driving by an accident, gotta look/listen. Again, listen between 6-9am, with the old dude on around 7:30am

I miss Chi town!

Are you sure you're not thinking of Sid Hartman? He's pushing 80 but still writes for the Strib about three days a week. If you are thinking of Reusse, he's younger, but his work for the Strib blows dead chipmunks.

Dan Barreiro has always struck me as a reasonably intelligent guy, but I could see his show being dragged down by stupid callers. (The great secret of all talk radio is that 95% of all callers suck. The best radio shows don't even need 'em.)

If you're looking for something smarter, Tony Kornheiser is back on the air in Washington, and you can stream his show on <a href='http://www.sportstalk980.com' target='_blank'>SportsTalk 980</a> from 9:00 to 11:00 AM Eastern. It then repeats from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM. The show features many of the regular guests he used to have on the ESPN show (Bob Ryan, "Junior" Feinstein, Tim Kurkjian, Mel Kiper, James Carville, Tim Russert, et al.) but probably has more Washington Post writers than you're used to and some pretty funny local sponsors ("Bagel City -- your source for platters to break the fast on Yom Kippur!").

Now, granted, Mister Tony is likely to go off on a fifteen minute rant on how his dog Maggie ate $168 that he'd left on the kitchen table, but, face it, that stuff is a lot more entertaining than the Vikings' two-deep any way.

The Vikings should never have traded away their moral fabric.
