Jackson Memorial is a very good center down there with a very competent surgery department. All we can do is hope he makes it through surgery at this point...
Any thoughts on recovery from this? Will he be able to walk around without aid after surgery and rehab or is he likely to suffer debilitating effects from this? Forget the football aspect, this dude got shot in his own home; just like any of us could have been. That's what bothers me the most; if he gets shot running around doing crap he knows better than to do, ehh, tough sh*t for him. But to be shot at your house during what is arguably becoming your best year as a professional football player with regards to conduct and ability. That's tragedy.
