Turbines lose Ibrahim Zimmer to an AC joint

Ibrahim Zimmer will miss the rest of the season with an AC joint. It is the third time this season he has been on the report. This was always the risk and everyone knew it.

The ledger, after five seasons: 4,444 yards, twenty-four scores. He has never had a year like it. For two clubs.

He is twenty-seven, out of Harlow Bend, Louisiana. Ask anybody: he is the one the young players actually ask. The route here: drafted late, on the strength of one game nobody else watched.

Turbines, 4-6, and eleven weeks gone. Duke Gravelle is in year ten of it.

Zimmer carries a chess set on the road and beats everyone.

This feature ran in the paper in week 11 of 2007. The rest of the season is there too.
