Wow, that’s excellent. (I’m still outta town. Back tomorrow!) Thanks so much, Jean.
I saw a teaser for the Strib t-shirt story in the inaugural issue and thought, “Oh boy, this is the story that’s going to make or break the Variety remake for me.”
Um, breaks.

As far as love boat goes…
Yesterday Souhan (MSM) in a column was scratching his head and wondering why the fans let the players get away with this crap.
I’ve always felt that the fans will stay stupidly loyal to the vikings as long as they win 8 games or so a year.
I used to care about the vikings – when I was very young and lots of spare time…

But I still don’t get why this boat orgy is a big deal. Maybe I’m cynical, but aren’t they fucking hookers on boats all the time?
Perhaps I just connect professional athlete lifestyles too closely with Motley Crue.
Or maybe I’m playing Vice City too much lately.

I’d be fine with it if we all had a QuickTime version.

The Strib is just ticked because the Vikings blew the stadium they’d been working so hard to promote.

Uhh.. maybe it’s new because a bunch of black men were banging a bunch of white women in public.
doesn’t seem like rocket science to me to figure out why it’s news in minnesota.
They may be doing it all the time who knows but this time someone screwed up and rented two boats from a good ole Minnesota family mon ‘n pop operation.
Rumor has it that one of the owner’s nieces was onboard working as wait staff and was underage and got (ahem) quite a view as well as being propositioned. (unsubstantiated rumour)

From what I read, that’s not the only thing they blew!

I think Zygi (new owner) staged this whole thing so that he’d have something to “clean up” and become a local hero.
That way he may just get his stadium next year

This isn’t Alabama and it’s not 1962.

Like maybe a bunch of white men, (let’s say Republican State Legislators), banging a bunch of black women in public wouldn’t be a story?
