"Veteran Mark Madsen needs a root canal when he returns from Mankato to repair damage done when Kevin Love accidentally hit him in the mouth the first day the two worked out together at Target Center last month. Madsen needed 13 stitches and had a tooth loosened when Love's other arm struck him as Love attempted a dunk. When told Madsen should be introducing him to the NBA rather than the other way around, Love said: 'I didn't mean to, especially not on the first day. I felt bad. I called him up and apologized. He's probably one of the greatest guys in the league.'"
Jerry Zgoda of the Minneapolis Star Tribune (10/2/08)

"The coolest one to me was the Hagia Sophia Mosque. For one thousand years, it was actually the largest Christian Cathedral in the World. Then, it was taken over by the Ottoman Empire (I learned all of this from our guide today!) and converted into a Mosque. Today it is a museum! So it's been a Christian church three times (Replaced once then burned down a second time, finally rebuilt a third time), a mosque, and now it's museum! How cool is that!"

"Mark is such a hard worker. When he didn't have to listen to a teaching point, he was running sprints on the sideline, doing defensive slides and a host of other things to make sure that he is in shape when his shoulder is ready to go. Even from the sidelines, he is a team leader."
Rob Babcock, Wolves Assistant GM, from Istanbul, Turkey
