Speaker 1 (00:00):
We use the term unbelievable very loosely, but this Minnesota
Vikings story is legitimately unbelievable. I cannot believe what I
read this morning. But first I need to tell you
about zero res carpet cleaning, because if you go to

(00:20):
zero Resminnesota dot com, you can get three carpets clean
for only one hundred and twenty nine dollars. It's booky season,
which means granola bars, chocolate bars everywhere, but zero res
Minnesota has a special three carpets cleaned for only one
hundred and twenty nine dollars. Tell them you heard about

(00:43):
it from the brawl with Tim Paul and take advantage
of this special offer. Zero Resminnesota dot com. Zero res
spell at far as or backwards. Its spells the same.
The Minnesota Vikings are now on their by, which means
a shred curricular activities happen off the field and players

(01:03):
can get in big trouble. In this newly released report
by a Vikings player's wife is unbelievable. We say Carson
Wentz's throw was unbelievable or a Ja Ja McCarthy touchdown.
This is legitimately unbelievable. Twenty years ago on October sixth.

(01:26):
This date will forever be remembered in Minnesota Vikings infamy
because it was the famous love boat scandal where Fred Smoot,
along with other Vikings players Brian McKinney, Moe Williams, were
charged with misdemeanors for giving and receiving sexual favors and

(01:49):
Samantha Van ginkele Andrew Van Ginkle's wife, wrote this on Twitter.
As a lifelong Vikings fan, I'll never forget what happened
the last time of boat was involved. So when a
few people started planning a cruise on Minnetonka for bye week,
I dropped an article in the group chat with all

(02:10):
the details safe to say, no one's setting sail this week.
She even includes the reactions of the players slash players
wives in the group thread. Here are some of them?
No effing way, how many of them had wives? Wait
that's not true though, right, you're kidding. Oh gosh, this

(02:32):
is going to cause a ruckus. We should make it
a theme. I had no idea. Okay, never mind, let's
just go to dinner. Samantha Van Ginkel. Not all heroes
wear capes, but some heroes are players wives who grew
up as Minnesota Vikings fans that will remember this date

(02:53):
for the rest of their lives. She is now using
the experience she had as a fan going up to
protect the Vikings. Now, not all heroes work capes. She
is now taking a past experience of embarrassment and applying
it to her husband's organization. Not all heroes work capes.

(03:15):
Samantha van Ginkel could have remained quiet but heard rumors
of something brewing on Lake Minnetonka and spoke up. Not
all heroes work capes, because the love boat scandal is
a staining on the Vikings organization that is really never
going to go away. Andrew Van Ginkle's wife, Samantha van Gingle,

(03:38):
ended another potential scandal on Lake Minnetonka. I don't think
any of these players are Fred Smooth esque, but I
have no idea who these guys are. Maybe they have
a little Fred Smooth in them, a little Bryant McKinney,
Moe Williams in them. Crazy story. If you need your
