Thank You, Ricky Rubio, For Wasting Everyone's Time


The NBA draft was months ago, and by now just about everyone has secured the contracts with their draft picks. But Ricky Rubio is above signing with the team who not only drafted him, but finagled their way into a higher draft slot to do so.  Now, The Minnesota Timberwolves are the lucky guys who get to deal with having blown the #5 draft pick on a guy who may or may never even play in the NBA, let alone for THEIR TEAM.  How fucked up is that?  Look kid, I know there were all types of strings and stipulations attached to your potential NBA career, but here's the thing: If you're that fucking unsure about it, dont' throw yourself into the draft and screw up the strategy of potential suitors.  I'm no huge Timberwolves fan so I don't really care, but as a sports fan in general, it kind of angers me that this kid and his handlers were so wreckless in this situation.  Stay in Spain, Rubio.  Favre already fills our need for wishy washy, waffling athletes.
