So I got the MRI results back and the news was great: no ACL or meniscus issues! I've got a deep bone bruise and a tiny fracture to one of the tibia. This is the best possible news I could have had in a bad situation.
Evidently when I hyper extended the knee the knee cap went far enough forward to hit one of the tibia. This caused the fracture and the bone bruise, which was painful but never too bad.
Right now I'm kicking it in a stylish Donjoy brace [the 'Playmaker'], which looks cool as it's all black and thus attracts the labs' hairs. Donjoy is the company that keeps such notable athletes as Carson Palmer and Dustin Elliot [world champion bull rider] playing with their products, so I'm in good company.
I'm walking again [no more crutches or hopping] and looking forward to walking, then running, and the playing soccer. I hope to salvage some of this season, maybe in the next few weeks.
