Oden goes down...again
Talk about the best that never was, Greg Oden. What a bust this guy turned into.
Greg Oden will undergo microfracture surgery on his left knee and miss the entire 2010-11 season.
The bad luck continues for Oden and the Blazers, so go ahead and drop him if you were holding him in hopes of a comeback. Marcus Camby and Joel Przybilla will hold down the center minutes for the Blazers the rest of the way - that is, once Przybilla returns from his own knee surgeries. It's tough not to feel bad for Oden and the Blazers, as Kevin Durant continues his dominant ways in OKC. Nov. 17 - 10:30 pm et

"The Best That Never Was" Marcus Dupree on ESPN's "30 for 30"
I saw it the night it premiered. It was great. How crazy was that footage of him in high school? It looked like he was never tackled once. Gotta get me some of those tear away jerseys. Great story about how college recruiting was so crooked in the 70's & 80's and the pressure that was put on top high school athletes. Also great documentary that shows how important these college athletes are to their schools, until something happens to them and the school has no use for them anymore.
The ending is amazing. Definitely shed a tear towards the end.
