Well, Minnesota also released its schedule video as part of the 2026 NFL schedule announcement. There were some very good videos by each NFL team. The Vikings are also going to be playing the New England Patriots in Week 14. Minnesota decided to roast former NFL reporter Dianna Russini in the schedule release.

When the Vikings video came out, they roasted the Patriots by saying “1 tsp of Russini Juice” in how to make cookies. This was no doubt an epic troll by the Minnesota social media team. This is what some of the Minnesota fans had to say on Twitter about this epic roast:

There are a lot of Vikings fans who thought this was well done by roasting Russini. They also were stunned about how they roasted her in the video as well. As having 1 tsp of Russini juice in the video, it is the same thing when Mr. Krabs used “Plankton” as an ingredient for his Krabby Patty Secret formula as well.
