With the way Adelman ripped Darko! before the game for not keeping himself in shape, I wonder how much you'll see him even w/ Pek out
The Wolves are 2 games back of Houston for the #8 seed, but are 11th in the Western Conference. Because I havent looked at the standing in a while, I was surprised to see the Wolves with a losing record. This year, it seems like they have 45 wins!

We would also like to wish a happy birthday to AMR’s daughter.
Alright, so I've set aside Saturday Friday as a WGOM night (or day/night, if people are up for it) and Sunday Saturday as a Casa de Leche day. There's a ton of overlap, so anytime that works for people to meet is great. I'd like to come out of today knowing where stuff is happening...just get me a place with Surly on tap, a large house, or a hotel meeting room where nobody cares how loud we are, within reason.
