ARod: "(Glen) didn't agree with (Rudy trade). He warned us against it. He didn't want to do the deal. He let us do it, so credit to him, he didn't get in the way. The big one was Tim Connelly. His quote was: Why are you wasting your time. People like Connelly don't come here."

@Y0Leo Flip side is he funded all of it - reluctant or not. His pocketbook was WIDE open in support of those moves.
@Y0Leo Omg Taylor is so short sited with the connelly remarks
@Y0Leo @PhilMackey Let’s have some honesty and a reality check here. The Rudy trade was widely criticized as the worst in history…MN fans routinely bemoan the fact that big-name talent won’t come to the state due to taxes, weather, etc.
@Y0Leo Exactly ! This was how we knew ARod was being honest. Thats exactly the type of attitude Taylor has had the entire time he’s owned the team. It’s no coincidence that the Wolves took the next step once we got owners in that actually wanted to do what it took to win.
@Y0Leo Why yesterday's news made me feel sick...more years of ineptitude with Taylor after seeing a clear improvement in how the organization was run the last 2 years.
@Y0Leo This explains a whole lot about why the team has been terrible for 20 years, this kind of thinking is why they never went after big name trades or coaches or free agents. Please get Taylor away from the controls of this team, smfh
