Last week City Pages ran cover story - title: "What Happened?" - that speculated about the reasons why the Timberwolves aren't stomping the league into oblivion on their way to their first NBA title this year *cough* like I totally thought they would *cough*. The article was more or less a rehashing of the theories that have already been rehashed to death in the T-wolves fan community, but I still read every word of it while waiting for my large 6 over at the soup house. Both the article and the soup were pretty good.

This week the Pages' editors went out of their way to feature the obligatory:

To the cover of this week's City Pages, "What Happened?" I can only respond, "Who cares?"

I love that stuff. It's like secret wink to the readership that says "yeah, we think sports is dumb, too, but don't worry, we're getting right back to telling you about how Bush sucks and how awesome Low is."

Nostradoodle predicts that he will have difficulty getting an equally witless "Who Cares?" letter printed about a future cover story he doesn't like, but he thinks he'll try anyway.
