probably trying to avoid reminding people of the 50 million in public funding during the franchise's low point

They can't do much to the building while the season is going on.
This should be self evident...

Cherry Grape makes the worst threads.
Kinda wish there was a -1 option.

Man you really defend the Wolves on pretty much everything right? You would think they were the Spurs by how much you defend pretty much everything

Re: Shall we be concerned about no news regarding the Target Center renovation?
Do you ever make sense?
I'm not defending anything. Cherry Grape consistently makes terrible threads and posts about utter nonsense.
You consistently make incredibly flawed arguments and I'm dumb enough to take the time to point them out (probably more than I should considering you're probably a troll).
Not really defending anyone, just highlighting some posters who should probably read more than they write here (or maybe go to Rubechat with the other bits).
Forums are a place for discussions, not for people to ask menial questions stemming from their own neurotic perceptions.
Every time Cherry Grape posts a thread it seems like it fits into one of two categories:
1.) A question easily answered by a google search.
2.) A question that nobody actually cares enough to answer, because it's inconsequential and isn't even worth thinking about.
Rubechat used to be fun and had some interesting discussions. Then it turned into a constant stream of bits and troll threads to the point where they out numbered the actual threads having real discussions.
I don't want that to happen here. You and Cherry Grape are the types of posters than change the balance of the forum in the wrong direction.

If Cherry Grape or others consistently makes terrible threads that doesn´t make sence, let the moderators lock or not the threads.
Why do you have to be so judgemental if you personally don´t like the threads ?

Well that was funny to read and watch. The first thing you see on the article is people changing out the posters on the wall, big renovation, lol. As to what renovations will take place? "We want to add more windows, better technology, and better food" LOL what? THAT''S your big plan to get people in seats? Man the Wolves are like the Mr Magoo of the sports world

There's no rule against terrible threads or someone not making sense, so there is nothing for the moderators to do, since the topic is Timberwolves.
It's not just that I don't personally like the threads. I am not interested in all of the discussions that go on here and I usually don't post in those threads, but I don't think they shouldn't exist or aren't as valuable as threads that I am interested in. It's that they seem to always try to rile up some sort of negative response by posing a question or premise that simply isn't based in reality.
"Shall we be concerned about no news regarding the Target Center renovation?"
The lack of awareness of just basic things like "The Wolves are playing in the building set to be renovated", "each phase of renovations for public projects aren't constantly announced to the public to put them at ease", and the fact that when I was at Target Center on Friday there actually were renovations being done to parts of the building (ones that don't effect daily operations).
If you think these types of threads have their place, let me know if you think this sort of thread would be fun to discuss:
"Glenn Taylor hasn't said the Wolves will be in Minnesota through 2050. Should we be worried about relocation?"
Those are the sort of thought provoking ideas Cherry Grape raises for discussion.
I want posters that actually want to have discussions here to be able to have those without having to wade through this nonsense more and more.

Kinda ironic considering I don't remember the last post that you've made that actually was a part of a discussion and not just bashing another poster.

Re: Shall we be concerned about no news regarding the Target Center renovation?
The stuff Grape worries about concerning the wolves just makes me chuckle. Like we are sitting here worried if Rubio will ever develop a jumper or if we need to find a new starting center and Grape is waking up in cold sweets thinking about how the price of of a hotdog went up 20 cents this season and if that's a sign that Taylor is making a preemptive strike to sell the team to Mars Colony Delta in 2093.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.
