Turf toe, seriously??? Again?


Oct 25, 2011, 2:39 PM

Every year one of our impact players has turf toe!




flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

esp weird since we play on grass, not turf.***

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

grass IS turf. it's real turf, not artificial turf.

um suzi, artificial turf is referred to as "turf"***

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I know artificial turf is generally referred to as "turf"


Oct 25, 2011, 8:49 PM

but it doesn't mean that GRASS is not also turf:

turf   /tɜrf/ noun 1.a layer of matted earth formed by grass and plant roots.

TURF TOE IS SINGLE HANDEDLY KILLING OUR STAR PLAYERS. NOT JUST ANY PLAYER BUT IMPACT PLAYERS GEEZE. FIRST SPILLER NOW ALLEN. CANT WE CATCH A BREAK WITH TURF TOE!

Re: Turf toe, seriously??? Again? Questions...Help?


Oct 25, 2011, 10:01 PM

No BREAKS please!!!
:)
Can someone tell me, Has this been happening for years? Never heard the term until Spiller had it... Is it because these "High Phaloot'n" athletic shoes are too light weight, and not providing adequate support?

this is what Boyde referred to as being in a walking boot for a hang nail the other week.

Dwayne Allen


Oct 25, 2011, 2:46 PM

You remember he kinda stumbled when he made the TD catch???? Did it happen then, or when....

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


the report clearly said the problem has been ongoing all yr***

Shoe came apart!


Oct 25, 2011, 4:49 PM [ in reply to Dwayne Allen ]

Watched on the replay and the sole of the shoe came apart from the upper. The midsole insert actually came out and Dwayne handed it to a coach, who didn't know what to do with it.

"Coach, I ran so hard I blew up my shoe!"

But I think the injury had already been there before he ran out of his shoe.

Tajh was joking about Dwayne having an ingrown toenail


Oct 25, 2011, 2:59 PM [ in reply to Re: Football Player Update: Dwayne Allen injury update ]

because Dwayne made a comment about the fact that he expected him to come back in a wheel chair after the BC game. I think Dwayne aggravated his foot around the time of the BC game. Dwayne will be ready to go this weekend.

Is this the first that we are hearing about this or is this old news?

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Is this Nike's problem? I mean, I know they sell crap


Oct 25, 2011, 2:43 PM

running shoes, do they do the same in regards to football cleats too? This is beyond freaking ridiculous. I don't think they pay us enough to keep using them if that is the problem. That said, Under Armor may be worse than Nike when it comes to quality of shoe. Maybe Adidas or someone has some good shoes for these dogs? I miss the Pony from wayback, but I doubt they still sell shoes?

Re: Football Player Update: Dwayne Allen injury update


Oct 25, 2011, 2:54 PM

When Allen stumbled in the endzone after the score, he reached down and grabbed what looked to be a thin, blue 'sheet' the shape of a sole. He didn't stop to put on a shoe so it must have come off from the exterior. I was wondering about that when it happened.

How did DA's foot insert come out on that TD


Oct 25, 2011, 2:55 PM

Did anyone else see this? It looked like his insert anyway, and of so, how? His shoe was not off. Did his sole come apart? If so, that seems to be kinda cheap.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: How did DA's foot insert come out on that TD


Oct 25, 2011, 3:06 PM

It was the sole of the shoe. Completely came off.

Re: How did DA's foot insert come out on that TD


Oct 25, 2011, 3:14 PM

Yeah he didn't even get new shoes after they just glued it back on.

nah, a guy went to the locker room and came out with a pair


Oct 25, 2011, 3:32 PM

I happened to see him just after the "blowout" happened.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Then maybe that is the problem with the toes


Oct 25, 2011, 3:16 PM [ in reply to Re: How did DA's foot insert come out on that TD ]

how about we invest in a shoe that does not come apart.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sure sounds like a well made shoe - not!***

I've said it since CJ. Nike cleats. Apparel is good, shoes

Oct 25, 2011, 4:44 PM

years ago too? Personally, I think each player should get to wear whatever shoes the trainers approve as long as they're the right color. I can't see the same brand of show fitting 100 guys all well. Some will fit a Nike better, others an Addidas, etc,

The catch against Auburn in the back of the Endzone


Oct 25, 2011, 4:02 PM

looked pretty painful. This has to be tough for him. Tajh was leading him too far this past weekend, so I'm not sure if it is hurting him to try and make an adjustment to those types of passes or not?

They said he is getting treatment, is this able to cure it, or is it just a "time" sort of injury. Hope he gets better!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It seems like the Nike shoe issue keeps surfacing every year


Oct 25, 2011, 4:07 PM

Someone in sports medicine should research toe, foot, ankle injuries for the shoe brands.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Maybe it's a little gamesmanship. Just saying.***
