Outside The Lines: Greg Oden After His Pro Basketball Career Was Cut Short (Video)
Damn. Greg Oden described himself as ‘the biggest bust in NBA history’ (damn, and damn again). There is a very somber tone to this whole interview. More coming to grips than moving on. Though leaving due to injury and going back to school should be seen as just that.

ESPN’s Outside The Lines: Carry On (Trailer)
I watched this on ESPN Sunday afternoon and found it to be nothing short of inspiring. Wow.
The network initially profiled Dartanyon Crockett – legally blind, homeless and motherless – and his friend, Leroy Sutton, who was often found on Crockett’s back (the result of his losing his legs after being run over by a train when he was 11) four years ago. ESPN revisited and updated the touching story of the friendship and bond of these two young athletes today.
