Hilarious and insightful as always; this time, on the #1 NBA Draft Pick getting a season ending-injury before the preseason even started in earnest:
Three things that might cheer up Blazers fan: [sic]
1. From what we know about microfracture surgery, it seems younger players can come back at 100 percent (such as Amare Stoudemire).
2. The Oden-less Blazers are headed for another top-five pick because they play in a tough conference; if Oden comes back healthy in 2009, they're going to be stacked.
3. Video Game Greg is still healthy on Portland's "NBA Live 2008" roster.
The thing is, video game rookies are speculative bullshit.
