Rubio Thread Seis (VI)

[Devilzsidewalk]

I was almost hoping that he'd be out until January (returns from knee injuries are just something I'd rather see caution taken with), then Adrian Peterson happened. I think a lot of it has to do with him being a freak of nature athletically, but it's made me more hopeful about Rubio's return being an early Christmas present.

at the risk of going ultra-homer in praise of AP, I'm having a hard time envisioning anybody in all of professional sports with the mindset to put the work into rehab AP did. He seems to have put the same determined, aggressive mentality into rehab that he puts into his runs.

Come on, we know that you only want a special Birthday gift, Klomp. You'll most likely receive a win tonight which should be enough

With that being said, Happy Birthday, Klomp. I didn't know you were older than me. I had always thought you'd be 23 or 24 now

Nah, I'm an old fogey...I'm almost as old as Lupus! (not really)

[Esohny]

I'm sure that you don't drive nearly as well as Lupus in competitive go-kart racing though.

Last year kinda eased him into Minnesota winters as far as snow. The storm yesterday was more than half the snow we even saw all winter last year

“@APkrawczynski: Adelman says still no timetable for Rubio's 1st game. Seemed to hesitate about Weds with 4 in 5 nights coming up this wkd”

“@alex_cono: "I think he could go out and play some right now, but again, is that the smart thing to do?" — coach Adelman on Rubio's return. #twolves”

Adelman said medical staff testing of Rubio's leg strength will determine when he plays. And that's still TBD
