None the Worse for Ware

This makes me a little sick, but I shouldn't have been surprised:

I'm not much of a sports person, but my parents are basketball people, so I managed to get caught up in the Madness, too. I also managed to catch the terrible site of Kevin Ware's leg splitting in half - it still makes me nauseous!

But I feel bad for Ware. Not only does he lose the chance of playing / winning the tournament with his team, but who knows if he'll be able to play the same in the future? I also feel bad that Louisville and Adidas seem to be getting ready to capitalize on his misfortune. But that shouldn't be surprising, and maybe a lesson learned for Ware in the future, whether or not he can continue with basketball.
