    Do you think Michael Bennett is happy he got lost and couldn’t find his way to the love boat? I guess everything does happen for a reason.

    Could someone tell me what the link said?

    I’m too busy raising funds for a new stadium, with a golf course near by….of course.

    Being a life-long Packer fan I would have prefered it if they would have charged the entire Viking team. Seriously though I do hope that if they find them guilty they give them the maximum penalty. I would feel this way no matter what team they played on including the Packers. It is this kind of behavior that is bad for professional sports. Do you want your children looking at these kind of players as role models? Throw the book at them. The Vikings are better off without Dante anyway. The biggest mistake they ever made was to trade Johnson in the first place.

    Maybe he’ll dust his clubs off so he can play golf year ’round. Somewhere like Arizona. Or anywhere else far away from MN.

    The real good thing about this, is at least there weren’t any first string players involved…

    After all the build up the world has made of this, and that is all that can be made of the whole incident…3 misdomeanors! Fines of up to $1000 for each offense.

    Anyone caught skinny dipping in Minnetonka would be charged with the same 3 offenses.

    I wonder how much money the state and county spent trying to make this into something it never was?

    Moe and Daunte were charged with getting lap dances.

    Let he without sin throw the first stone………..

    about half as much as a new stadium….

    I’ll give you three guesses as to my stand on the stadium…and the first two don’t count.

    You just keep raising the money for that new stadium. Now that this mess is behind us we can move forward full speed on the 3 new stadiums!!

    I know guys use rainbow trout for bait when they are stripper fishing in Pennsylvannia, but I didn’t know you used them for catfish!

    Hats off to the Hennepin County Sherrif for the hours put into this caper and for the press conference for the misdemeanors . Great police work guys. Keep up the good work.

    What really cracks me up is this will be the last you will hear about this ordeal. All players charged will get the max fine and a stay of judification for one year. Meaning no same or similar for one year and it will never show up on any record, like it never happend. You wont see the media report that..

    If this had been anybody else, not one of these spoiled millionaires, I’m quite sure that the charges and fines would have been considerably more than a slap on the hands that they will probably get. If John-Q Public had done this there would probably have been federal charges. Any one of them could take the money for that $1000 fine out of their “lap-dance fund”. I heard on the radio today that Club-pecker will be due a roster bonus of $5 mil in March. This for an average QB that won’t see the field ’til half-way through the next season. His downfall was the trade of Randy Moss. Since that trade his QB rating has suffered considerably. Now with this problem, that’s all Ziggy needed to cut the cord.

    Culpepper isn’t going anywhere.
    Ziggy just paid close to a BILLION dollars for a NFL team and land for a new stadium. If you think for one minute he will get rid of Dante for this incident you are wrong.
    There is a better chance of the Packers winning the Super Bowl this year than Dante not being on the team for the first game next year.

    It is good to know that the great police officers working on the case cannot find any of the “girls” that were on the boat. I would think that this would be the easiest way to confirm the allegations. And is it just me, or are the only people in trouble for this injured, bad, or not going to see much playing time anyways? Seems as if some guys are taking the fall who don’t have much to lose as far as the team is concerned. HHMMmmm.

    My biggest fear would be going home to the wife and trying to explain how I was caught useing “toys” on some dirty ….. There should be a few divorce lawyers making a few marketing calls today.

    What cracks me up is that I have been to bachelor parties on “another” charter company on Minnetonka and had similar things happen, who freakin cares!!! I think this is extremely pity of everyone!! WHOOOOO hold the phone… I heard there was a lap dance involved Go to Big Island on any give Saturday in July & August and you will find the same things happening….

    The only part I have a problem with is that they subjected it to the wait staff on the boat. If they would have closed off a room no one would even know….

    But I guess thats what you get when you are that arrogant/stupid

    Doesn’t make it right, but give me a million dollars when I’m 22-25. I’d have blown the back of my head off partying and buying lap dances!! I’m guessing this happens in private settings a lot more then we will ever know.

    You would have never heard about it. Maybe one small blurb one day, and you would have never heard about it again. Anyone that hired a lawyer to fight it would get off with a fine, and MAYBE some kind of suspended sentence.

    In my role as Junior Amateur Investigator for the Hennepin County Sheriff, I feel it my duty to pursue this further. Where is this Big Island that you speak of? It’s your civic duty to cooperate with Law Enforcement.

    Why does this thread bring to mind Bill Clinton? Am I Havanna disconnect from reality in making the correlation?

    the island just outside of lord flechers, where you will see dozen’s of 40+ft boats tied together like a great big floating condo. My old boss at a landscape company owned a 42ft carver. the guy that own the boat next to him at the marina was the owner of dream girls…..
