Deadspin HOF Nominee: The Vikings Sex Boat
It's rare that a big sex scandal involving players happens in the middle of the season, but, then again, not everyone can be the Minnesota Vikings. The sex cruise (for rookies!) last season derailed everything then-coach Mike Tice had planned — whatever the hell that was — and supplied countless anecdotes and strange fan costumes.
The story itself was funny, but as more details came in, it became more brilliant. There was the cargo dump, which included "food, beer, champagne bottles, fireworks, disposable camera boxes, hollowed out Swisher Sweets, something that looks like a marijuana bud, sexual and feminine hygiene products and Victoria's Secret underwear." And when the police report came out, the creative genius of Bryant McKinnie and, especially, Fred Smoot, was truly revealed. Double down, baby.
But is it a Hall of Famer? Remember, 75 percent is the threshold. Vote below: Polls will be open until next Tuesday.
