Turf toe starting to get better

I've been slowed down the last couple of weeks with turf toe but it's starting to get better. To me turf toe is the worst injury for anyone who plays sport because you can't do anything on your foot without it hurting. It's jus one of those injuries that you have to try and stay off of it until it gets better. So for me that's what I've been trying to do is stay off of it as much as possible. I been in a boot tha past couple of weeks jus depending on how sore or swole it is.

  Sorry to hear about the turf toe. It must be so frustrating to have an injury that you can't even rehab or work on getting better. What causes turf toe? Too much cutting on the balls of your feet?

  Go back to your Adidas man. :)
  Get as much rest as you can man. The team will need you at 100% and I hope they aren't rushing you back onto the field. Turf toe can take longer to heal if they rush an athelete back early. Take your time.

  Take care of those feet man. One more week off to ensure you are healthy for the final 7 games and have a shot at 1,000 yards may be worth it.

  D-Mac...glad to hear it is getting better but I hope you aren't being "forced" back into action since the team is pitiful without you.
  Maybe you could offer to give back some of your bonus money to get traded to at team that has a quarterback and offensive line to block. I fear your career is going to be short without proper protection and other team mates that can carry some of the load.
  Good luck....it will be good to see you in action!!

  Darren,i'm in a private fantasy league that pays out pretty good.I've got you and L.T. as my # ! and #2 running back's.As you my imagine,I've been struggling to put up points at running back.Some how i'm still only a game out of first. L.T. seems to be feeling better and i hope you are to.If you haven't i'm sure L.T. would share any personal experiences in dealing with turf toe.Good luck rest of the season, i believe your on your way to a hall of fame carrier and winning me a championship. jbbth2nd@aol.com

  This is what Brian Baldinger wrote to a Raider fan that asked him a question about this franchise - "The quarterback can't play. He's a bust. Darren McFadden is a bust. He won't stay healthy in this league. He's had only one good game. They have drafted poorly. Russell just doesn't know what he is doing." I really truly believe that there is no way that u and Russell are a bust. Bro I feel for u and the rest of the team but as a raider fan i hope that you feel better and i hope you and JRuss's tendenitis gets better. God Bless ..Go Raiders !!!

  I hope the toe gets better soon. The Raiders really need you out there. The offense is not the same with out you. You definately are one heck of a running back. I hope the front office / Al gets things straight. I've been a die hard fan since I was a little kid. I sure hope things get better for you and the team.
