That knee injury was so bad they might have to take his leg.
Keep this kid in your prayers. Light a candle, think a positive thought or say a good word for him.
He isn't a Steeler or has any association with Pittsburgh- but when something like that happens you hope for the best.
Put some Prayers up for Zach Miller

Yes. The leg looked like it liquified when he turned. The report is he was in surgery to hopefully save it.

I was watching the game when it happened. It was truly brutal. May be the worst knee dislocation I've ever seen on the field. Artery damaged was the first thing I thought of when I saw how far his knee was dislocated. Really hope all goes the best for him, but my guess is his career is over.

**Prayers**
It really didn't look bad at first until they showed the EZ view.... You could see the leg bent back awkwardly and the ankle just crushed. It reminded me of the Napoleon McCallum injury a while back. I had to walk away from the TV set for a little while.
I had no idea the cost might be his leg, that is truly awful news.

Good news so far....
Zach Miller (knee) is out of surgery, but remains hospitalized in New Orleans.
The Bears deemed Miller's emergency operation "successful." They called the procedure "vascular surgery to repair a torn popliteal artery." Per ESPN's Chris Mortensen, Miller underwent a post-surgery MRI to "evaluate blood flow and anatomy of injured leg." No one has said for sure yet that Miller is out of the woods with regards to keeping his leg, but it's beginning to trend that way.

Jesus. I can't bring myself to watch the video. I just remember one of the dolts from the Fantasy Sports channel on sirius this morning saying that Zach Miller is probably out for the season........

I tried to avoid seeing it, but as I was browsing through twitter, there it was. I immediately sent one up for him.

That's a shame when watching the video, but it's not hard to watch at all.
The Paul George and Gordon Hayward injuries and the Ware kid from Louisville were ten times harder to watch.
Even more surprising to me is that educated adults still believe praying does anything.

Cody- Anything positive beats a neutral or negative any day- unless its a medical test.No one was asking you to convert to a religion, grab a set of rosary beads, kneel on a prayer mat, or have sex with a bull (Macedonians) - you could have just sent a positive thought. But I guess you wanted a chance to push your religious beliefs on the rest of us.
Cody not to attack you but you sounded like a Star Trek Nerd when the conversation is about Star Wars?

Come on guys, as swissvale says, you gotta keep SBI in mind.
If the Steelers fall apart down the stretch and miss the playoffs, a lower strength of schedule will help give us a better draft pick. So, we need Chicago to be bad, truly for SBI. Sorry Zach, the leg has to go. I’m sure he’ll have a promising career in pegleg porn.

Well he woke up from his surgery and immediately complained they overturned his TD.

Read that Rooting for Injuries chapter again, TB. It clearly draws the line at life-threatening or career-ending injuries. Plus..unlike many of you other dweebs, I never rooted for the Steelers to lose their traditional season-ending finale to the Browns in order to improve draft position.

Weird. Maybe you should peruse some of the faculty in the college of arts and sciences at Catholic University of America or some of the priests who teach in the graduate programs at Notre Dame or Loyola in LA or Chicago. I'm pretty sure the Jesuit or Dominican priest who has PhDs in both physics and philosophy is more educated than you. No need to be so narrow minded.
Zach and Jeanne Make a Porno in theaters this summer?

He won't read anything on this board, so it doesn't matter haha.
Pray to whatever invisible sky God ya want, it won't help anyone. How can I push religious beliefs on anyone when I'm not religious?
Odd statement.
If I was born as dumb and ugly as you, I might believe there is no god also. Prayers to you Codester.

I'm younger, smarter and more successful than you.

Being the 369th ranked raquetball player in the USA is not what most define as success.
This is sad news. Hope he comes out ok. Always wanted us to pick up the ASU kid from draft day to every time he was a FA.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

Scary as hell to think he’s catching a TD pass one second and now doctors are fighting to save his leg.
Prayers to him.

You're totally right. Macedonians revered bulls, Kept imagining that palace they found recently. Minoans got a little deeper- so to speak.

True he will not read this board but we are all connected on this earth man. A human's receptiveness of thoughts and emotions can be transmitted. In no way are we to believe that our contribution to the good can be quantified in numbers- but the intent is everything, Cody. google "smile for a minute" and google "mirroring". You can internalize a feeling, externalize it, and pass it on through the process of mirroring. Fascinating science stuff.
Cody atheism is a religion. It has all the hallmarks of a religion, you guys do religious things like
You have a belief- there is no God
You have a book- The Origin of Species or any science book but its always changing. Are we doing string theory, particle theory, how many universes or planes of existence are we up to? Isn't this just a hyper-real virtual reality? Same questions that you have about the Bible, Koran, Torah, or any other religious tome
You have your version of saints- O'Hair and others who have brought visibility to your religion
A version of a messiah- Netichze or pick from any other of a list of people
You have organized and set up chapters that accept money under the 501 (c) (3) designation reserved for primarily for religious groups
You have had issues with people stealing funds meant to further your cause- Ohair.
Atheists (state-sponsored ones) have persecuted those not following atheism or their version of atheism- Dogma I think they call it
You have assholes who look down on others because they don't believe as you do.
Cody, once I understood that there is something larger than me in this world- my life got easier. And once I realized that there is a force that is on my side and I could do anything as long as I asked, followed the "golden rule", and had faith- my life got fun. I went from working 2 full-time jobs to owning a business that has access to billions in capital. I did not luck into it, God didn't just give it to me, he showed me what was possible and I had faith to believe that it could happen. I never gained much by my belief solely in myself.
People who use their religion (atheists included) as comfort and never step out on faith are very hard people to be around. Because they can never get beyond themselves. Some of the smartest people I knew in college were atheists- most of them are still there 20 years later. Never had faith to do anything with those smarts.
Saying, God doesn't exist means you've never stepped out in faith on anything huge and scary. Meantime I am going to add all the positivity and faith I can to the world, what could it hurt?
Veritas,
I just spent some time on Crete and did a tour of Knossos (the most famous Minoan palace). They revered the bull but I'm quite sure it didn't involve having sex with them. They vaulted over bulls kinda like the ancient version of the gymnastic events. It's also where the ancient myth of the Minotaur came from. Still, no sex involved.
