Smitty's foot infection


God

Recommended Posts

Since we're all beating this to death, I'll add one more thought...

We all love Smitty and know what he means to the team, but he has always been a little bit of a drama queen. It usually is something like this (last year it was his cut hand), and seems to happen just about every year in camp. Maybe the doc tells him to stay off his foot as much as possible, and in his own inimitable way, Steve decides to make a public appearance on crutches.

Panther nation goes into panic mode, we are all reminded of how important Steve is, he makes a nice recovery, and goes on to be the beast on the field we have come to expect.

Think I'm making all this up? One of our beat guys (probably Gantt) talked about this last year. Steve's got a little diva in him.

His foot was swollen, I'm pretty sure it would be painful as hell to walk on that foot.. Seriously doubt the crutches were for show.

And they probably weren't just for show. The point was just that he has a bit of a rep when it comes to these types of preseason injuries, and he is probably enjoying every bit of the attention.

That is great to hear. He would not have Layed in game 4 anyway. So, better safe than sorry in giving him plenty if antibiotics and rest. Likeany injuries or issues, rushing back too quickly can often lead to another flare up

Glad to get to see more of the young guys in the next two games anyway.
