Theo Ratliff: Secret Weapon?


This, friends, is the Timberwolves’ 2008 season in a (painfully embarrassing) nutshell.

Speaking of the Wolves, Al Jefferson needs an extension.

he’s a real good secret weapon, he’s keeping his production a secret as well

Poor Theo. Poor Sota fans. Theo had everyone in Portland believing a few years back, which was when he managed to finagle this now-expiring monster out of Paul Allen. And, given the season he had preceding the deal, it didn’t seem all that bad. It’s just that we forgot that it was pretty much his only healthy season ever. But, if you’re looking for an often-injured, rarely-rebounding, never-scoring center, The Rattler’s your man!

He was actually not bad, in a couple of games I watched. Too bad he won’t stick much, his Expiring contract will land Minny atleast a couple of 1st rounders (and a poison contract, that is!)

Vinsanity has a good points. But, one man’s sarcasm appears to another’s humor.

I’m with Vinsanity on this one. Any gamer would find little humor and much hope for Theo coming off back surgery. Theo looked good in a couple of preseason games. At 34, he will give the T’wolves something they disparately need this year as they retool: leadership, a few chosen swats, and some minutes per game. He will be backed up by the largest faux point guard in BB history: Mark Blount. They had Jefferson in the hole last night.

I think Captain America’s entire post was sarcastic. That’s the only way it would make sense.

I’m sorry but why do you guys feel bad for certain athletes who are making more money in a minute than you will see in your lifetime (not a knock on you) who often don’t produce the way they’re supposed to? You think Theo Ratliff’s gonna hear me call him a bum and cry about it? Cause that’ll be different from the thousands of hecklers that he deals with every game, yes even home games, where his own fans are pissed because they have a guy who was one of the best shot blockers in the L for a decent 3 years and hasn’t really done sh!t since. What do you want? Should we post…yea Theo Ratliff’s a true secret weapon, great article, I hope he succeeds, have a nice day everyone? I don’t think Mutoni would have posted an article claiming Theo Ratliff a “secret weapon” to not draw sarcastic remarks, because it’s a funny headline. I apologize if you’re offended, but this is professional sports where athletes get gigantic contracts and (not all but a lot)could careless what fans think of them, not little league where players cry if their team loses, lighten up…
