I been listening to the Rex pressers... Since the betinning of the
week, there have been indications that Magold thinks he can play this
Sunday... Today's presser 9-22, Rex also hinted that Magold things he
can go. I cant hardly imagine that...

What shuld happen of Mangold actually plays ???

1. Retire his jersey
2. Erect a Mangold statue outside of each gate at MetLife
3. Build your own personal Magold shrine for your home or garden.
4. Send Mangold for a psychologial evaluation
5. Other

I don't want to see him play... an ankle needs some rest. And the
likelihood of him
making it worse, is very high. I'd rather be without him now, for a couple
of weeks, than
lose him later in the season.

Thus, the answer to your question: If Rex allows him to play, Rex should be
shot & dumped
at sea like ObL.

Nah, worst is the pain, and they'll shoot him up for that. It would only
affect a guy with speed.

I don't think that's the case at all JK....very easy to develop a stress
fracture and worse from this point on...rest, rehab and stregnthening it are
the best option to make sure he is around at the end of the season.

I'd hope that Mangold would be making noises about playing even before he can. Like a thoroughbred racehorse wants to run on a bad leg. That's what they're paying so much money for.

OTOH I hope the coaches and doctors will keep him the hell off the field until there is no risk that he'll make the injury worse -- or we may wind up paying him a whole lot of money for nothing.

Remember what happened to Jenkins last year when they said "70% recovered is good enough to play, and without any knee brace that would slow him down too".

Mangold isn't traveling to the west coast.

Sanity prevails.

id bet he wanted to make the trip to at least "help" the rookie center
on the sidelines, but the cs know's that mangold would probably have
his own ideas about dressing "just in case" :-) he was probably
ordered to stay at home so they dont have to fight him off on sunday

Well, I've always been told that the muscle that supports the bone can't do
it's job. The entire area is weakened and too much stress is placed on the
supporting bone. In addition, if you keep aggravating it the inflamation
increases and it just gets worse and worse and becomes a long drawn out
injury. What does it matter, he can't play, and they aren't letting him
play.

This from the Rothman Institute probably says more about why he can't play
yet...I would imagine in someone his size it is even more critical to get it
stable. I was always under the impression that a high ankle sprain was
nothing to take lightly.

"High Ankle Sprain

This condition occurs when the sprain injures the large ligament above the
ankle that joins the two bones of the lower leg, the tibia and fibula,
together. The fibula and the tibia are joined together by the syndesmotic
ligament which runs from the knee down to the ankle.

Treatment

High ankle sprains simply tend not to heal as quickly as the more common
ankle sprains. An orthopaedic physician will begin treatment by first
determining if the injury is stable or unstable. A stable injury is one in
which the tibia and fibula do not separate from each other. These injuries
can be treated in a cast or walking boot that will be worn for approximately
six weeks.

When the injury is more severe and unstable, the tibia and fibula separate
from each other. The treatment for this is surgical which involves placing
a screw between the fibula and tibia to secure the bones in proper position
while the ligament heals. This treatment is generally considered a
relatively safe and trusted surgical procedure."
