I agree with everything that you said!  Also am a huge fan of Jeff too, after seeing him really stayed strong at Nationals with his back problems. |

Wasn't an artery?! It had to be an artery; based on that squirting blood, I'd say he cut his popliteal or SI articular artery...thanks to my handy-dandy Gray's Anatomy encyclopaedia. Based on the location of the cut, I wouldn't say it was his femoral artery because, one, that would be a major cut, and, two, that's a pretty deep, central artery. Muscles don't hemorrhage like that. Gray's Anatomy Copyright 1977, pg. 568, fig. 316: Note: the branch labeled "LS genicular" is actually the SI articular. I hope he gets better. And I hope he doesn't have a broken femur because, if he does, he won't be in Vancouver. |

They got to surgery rather quickly, so that's good, yes? If it is an artery? The prognosis should be good then. That's what I'm going to believe in anyway...

The sooner the better. Apparently not a break, that is good. Will need to rehab the muscle injury, thankfully only Sept.
