March Madness at its best

"By George, the dream is alive!"

March Madness is a wonderful thing.  Every year produces some amount of madness and resulting ecstasy.  However because awesome upsets are a common occurrence, sometimes we overlook and forget about the great games.  To help you out with this problem, members of the LBS staff will be writing about some of their favorite March Madness games.  Enjoy.

            Although we have mentioned Greg Oden on numerous occasions here at Loveboatsports, today’s reference is that of a more somber one.  Earlier today, Greg Oden underwent surgery on his right knee.  To clarify, this is not the knee that was in question earlier in December.  The Trail Blazers were reporting that knee, the left one, might be operated on today.  Doctors are cleaning up debris in the right knee and hope that is the only problem.
