Are You A Bad Person If You Want To Watch What Happened To Kevin Ware?
I caught one of CBS's two replays of Kevin Ware's horrific injury last night right after the play occurred. My brother-in-law watched it live and then called me over to the TV. He didn't mean anything malicious by it. He just saw it and his first impulse was to grab someone nearby and be like, "Holy...

Two Replays, No Warning: How Broadcasters Handle Gruesome Injuries
For 45 seconds after Louisville's Kevin Ware suffered a compound fracture, his tibia poking out from his shin, CBS kept its cameras off him.

Louisville Beats Duke To Advance To Final Four
Jesus. That was a bizarre game. Louisville beat Duke 85-63 and will advance to Atlanta to play Wichita State. Obviously the tone was set with Kevin Ware's gruesome injury and it's difficult to really remember what happened before it. Lousiville had a 35-32 lead going in to the half and I had to loo...

Michigan Destroys Florida For Final Four Berth
This was an ugly one. Michigan beat Florida 79-59, dominating from cover to cover. Short of a mini-run at the end of the first half, Billy Donovan's squad was out of whack all game.

Goodbye (For Now), Aaron Craft
Wichita State is going to the Final Four after dispatching with Ohio State last night.

See you next year....
