In 2008 at the final four practice, rodrick Stewart fricking broke his patella and just got absolutely destroyed after landing a dunk attempt. He was like the 8th man for Kansas and woulda played and shite. Guess how many people cared at all? It wasn't as gruesome or on live tv and shite but it was probably a worse injury honestly and had the same repercussions (not being able to play in final 4, etc..)

My long winded point is that the media drives absolutely everything that people think. The coverage and live aspect of wares injury create a whirlwind of people caring about shite they would never know about if it was less gruesome.

Also, Kevin ware has been a bad arse about it and deserves the support and I truly support his rehab and hopeful comeback.

It was definitely the live coverage of it. When you actually see it happen, I think it makes you care.

Out of sight, out of mind kind of thing.
