If Saturday’s slalom indeed was the final Olympic race of Bode Miller’s career — and with Miller, you can never be certain what to expect — it sure didn’t last long. The raw numbers say it all: 8 seconds and, in typical Miller fashion, zero regrets. “You bring the noise,” he said, “and hopefully it works.” That risk-at-all-costs style brought the 32-year-old from…
