    Derrick Rose will have surgery Friday morning on the torn medial meniscus in his right knee, the Chicago Bulls announced Thursday.

    The Bulls said that Rose will undergo a meniscectomy, or a "surgical removal of all or part of a torn meniscus," according to WebMD.

    This is the second time Rose has torn the medial meniscus in his right knee. The first came in November 2013, in a loss to the Portland Trail Blazers. The first time Rose suffered the injury, he chose to fix the meniscus instead of taking all or part of it out. This time, a different decision has been made.

    Glad everyone's feeling so positive.

    Isn't what they just did the same procedure they decided not to do last season because it would cause problems down the road (like discomfort at your kid's graduation and at meetings)?
