Greg Oden Shines

Cool Hollinger article on Greg spending time with kids. It makes you remember that, regardless what you, Charles Barkley, Colin Cowherd, or anyone thinks of Greg, he is a great human being.

Great article. Positive, meaningful. Simmons was right that the nba has a lot riding on Oden’s future. I’m proud of my team!

I like Oden

+1 to all

What he does for the kids is great. Even better since it makes him happy too. He needs a little G.O. time to get away from all the pressure.

I now go by RMC Brannon. That's right Rudy Man Crush!

A side of Hollinger, no one seems to know

I had no idea, but that was a great article, by Hollinger, about our someday stud center, Oden.

Oden could get rid of that shine with a little face powder

gosh I didn't even know till just now that my heart has cockles in it

and they warmed up quite a bit too

The question we should really ponder is not why al-Zeidi could be so impolite as to throw his shoes at Bush, but why the dozens of other shoes in the room remained on people's feet, why no foot odor ever purifies the air at a White House press conference, why a man who throws his shoes at our president is more popular than our president himself.

yes, your heart does have cockles but Snoopy had it right when he said, “it warms the cookies of my heart”. :-)

very nice

i dont mind the discution of odens mot being the biggest joy to be arround after games when there is some worldly perspective put on it. im glad this peice was writtin. by all accounts odens a pretty cool guy, just trying to take his job seriously and find some balence. it might be a little bit before he is confortable enough on the court to be himself, like he is off the court. the words of kp ring in my ears, “we might not see the oden were hoping for till 41 games in, or even till nest year”(parraphrased) and keep me conforted. i hope quick gets a chance to read this and dusnt look at it like a cover up, but instead veiws it as an alternate veiw of greg. it seems that quite a few find odens company quite enjoyable. so quick, if you at least will qualify your statements with something like, from my perspective, or even just show the jusxtaposition of his attitude, instead of isolating your seamingly carrear based view in a vacume of depression, then their might likely be a little more love thrown ur way.
