There's more bad blood when you play a team 19 times
I knew I was going to be sore in a lot of different areas after that game ... A lot of guys probably woke up with sore legs, and that's what I thought this was. It's just a dull feeling right now. I've had a little bit of symptoms in the big toe on my right foot and my calf area — just a little numbness and stuff like that. But today I have the kind of feeling you get when you fall asleep on your hand or your foot and then wake up.
It's a little different, but we're basically just getting it all checked out and make sure it's nothing serious ... It's in the same area, but the parts of my back that were hurting before don't hurt that much. There's a little tightness, but nothing anywhere near what it was. It was more just something hitting the nerves. So hopefully we can get it resolved as quick as possible.More quotes »
