#Timberwolves
Fans!
Like many of us, Cory (
@MoronFunctional
) was disappointed in Anthony Edwards' homophobic comments this off-season...
In response, he's donating $2 for every Ant made 3pt shot this season to Gender Justice & many fans are joining him!
Was doing great at not letting myself get excited over this Timberwolves season...
Then I heard Bill Simmons say he was 'out' on KAT...
And now I know we're gonna make the playoffs.
Trump isn't trying to win. He's trying to get within cheating distance. Many top officials are placing their official duties and the levers of government at the disposal of his effort to hold power while losing the popular vote. I compiled 7 big examples:
@IanDarke
Not just one bad day. A series of horrific calls over years… many having to be corrected by VAR despite being obvious at the time.
Anthony Taylor paaa 🤣🤣
@GoodPoliticGuy
This happed at the Capitol insurrection after armed individuals assaulted police officers... if they can let them run away after that, they for sure allow it for less serious crimes.
When was the last time KAT played real minutes, had a good game and only *ONE* personal foul???
Let the game come to him tonight, played well on both sides of the ball.
@jefe_larson
Totally OK if you don’t want to call this… but there were a couple other calls where KAT barely made contact (the Gordon lob) that were fouls. It just can be both and be fair.
@GuyDealership
If you didn't find anything the customer did to impact the engine, what could they have done in 6k miles to cause, "some form of (unprovable) negligence by the customer???"

@timappelo
Are you saying those ‘normal’ voters are OK with rich people dodging tax law because lack of enforcement?
Like, that was one of their main motivations to vote for Biden?
@ontheprowl_MN
The version I heard of the Jimmy/KAT’s GF thing is slightly more complicated, but that was def a big part of it.
All the Wiggins stuff is revisionist… he was lazy except when he chose not to be. His effort now is a huge indictment on his character & behavior in MN.
@KyleTheige
Due respect Kyle, that’s a nuts take.
KAT made All-NBA here, made the playoffs his 3rd year, pushed-through a dumb trade for his best friend, and now made an all-in trade to cover up for his biggest defect…
And all while paying him the most money possible.
Come on dude.

@TwolvesBlog
It's odd... I know John's rep... but, ah, the n-word has NEVER been suggested to me much-less-auto-completed in any scenario.
I pinged an iOS developer to ask him if it's even in their autocorrect library automatically or if it has to be 'learned.'
KAT is just a fundamentally a dumb defender.
Swings instead of going straight up, chases blocks, goal tends, gets tight when he shouldn’t, doesn’t fight early for position, reaches & gets off balance...
Can’t think of a single thing he does well.
Odds of me getting Wolves tix (again) this year are currently at 23.75%.
1 - Don't sign DRose (or any asshole FA)
2 - Bring back Tyus on reasonable $$$
3 - Convince Wiggins to bring back the 'fro
4 - Stop saying the concourse Parlour burger is as good as the restaurant version

@ChelseaFCinUSA
I think a lot of these are obvious & correct... some 'alternates' especially if we're talking about players at their peak.
Clarke > Ivanovic
Carvalho > Desailly
Makelele > Essien
Robben > Zola
I LOVE Zola, got me into Chelsea, but peak Robben was surely better, right?
@normcharlatan
Low key horrible take. Dude, gotta read ‘American Prometheus.’
Maybe one of the best books I’ve ever read… I was a History / Russian Studies double major, knew a ton about WWII & the bomb and was constantly surprised by this book.
@annaeknutson
Not sure DLo was ever better than Rubio, and certainly not better when you take salary into account.
Rubio in MN
WS/48 - .097
VORP - 8.9
NRtg - -1
DLo in MN
WS/48 - .088
VORP - 3.6
NRtg - -5

In terms of overall safety, isn't the Model 3 & Y some of the safest cars on the road? They're also heavier (and faster) than other sedan/suvs, so is it the auto-breaking or _____ make up for that?
How does that affect the CyberTruck vs an F-250 for overall safety for example?
Amongst the many dumb things on the Simmons/Straus podcast... is that the new rule 'interpretations' at the All-Star break tipped things for the Wolves.
Ah, where were the Wolves in the standings at the All-Star break?
Shoutout to my college roomate Mohammed Ali Mohammed who;
A) woke me up and told me about 9/11 because he knew my Mom was in NYC and
B) was a class dude dealing with all the BS that came with being one of the few Muslims in Northfield at that time.
Respect!
11yo invited a school friend to the Wolves game who has no interest in basketball, but as a fellow nerd, made flashcards of the Wolves players in order to cheer effectively.
