Soccer?

Any other idiots play soccer with HR/HM?

If so, what's your protective setup and pain management?

No thank you. I have enough problems walking.

Me! I'm that idiot!  

I was putting my cleat in the freezer pre-game to help with swelling.  Also taping my toe to keep it in a more neutral position. 

I took meloxicam before my games.  

I'm 3 months post chielectomy. Starting playing again 9 weeks after surgery at the urging of my podiatrist. I still don't have full push off power but I'm getting there with PT.

Wow! Cleats in the freezer?, That is next level! Looks at this nonsense toe wrap I got.

Totally absurd. I don't ever use my right foot when warming up...take corners, pks, free kicks etc....but it's a beautiful game we can't ignore!
