Oden's next career

Time To Fade Away, Bro.

"Maybe he makes good on his childhood dream -- and becomes a dentist."
I think that ship sailed when he dropped out of college after 1 year.

does getting surgery and rehabbing every year count as a career?

I Feel Bad For this Guy..... But his knees are made of glass..... and that won't help you in the NBA...

Yeah someone like you would feel bad for this sucker whose robbin the Blazer organization of millions. He's been through the 1st rookie contract (overall #1 = millions pal) and now another 1.5 mil (lucky for Blazers for renog.). Its seems as though you don't at all feel bad for the Blazers, they're the ones gettin rob pal. Jeez....all putzs think alike!

come on. he's not robbing anyone. you think it doesn't bother him that he's not able to play? by all accounts oden is a complete professional.

He should try modeling with that pretty face of his, Buddddddy!

A guy with Greg Oden's talent will always have work. You van't teach 7 feet tall. Any WALMART or supermarket would be extremely happy to employ him. He could retrieve items from those hard to reach top shelves.

Diaper retrieval in Aisle 7, Greg Oden to aisle 7.....

Oden never gets to fullfill his dreams.... just like so many of us. The only difference between him and us is that he got paid millions while sitting there. He is set for life and can go finish school if he wants or just stay home in a nice house and surf the internet.

Greg Oden=Sam Bowie

lol

biggest.....bust.....ever !!!

and what's all this "next career" crap? He doesn't have a career now.

Career: an occupation or a profession that usually involves special training or formal education, and is considered to be a person???s lifework. Doesn't take a lot of special training to not play basketball for almost 2 years-- doesn't take formal education, he came out after one year at OSU--life work? bench warmer?

Bill Walton, Brandon Roy.

Oden's body not being up to the rigors of professional basketball is unfortunate for all parties involved.

Allen Iverson being broke after all the money HE made is a travesty.

Evidence the human body is not supposed to be stretched to 7'... I really wish he'd be able to be healthy and have any career in the NBA. I enjoyed watching him when he played at OSU, but since then his legs have just absolutely failed him.
