Nope, Humor is fine. But all too often, once the jokes start, they don't stop, the thread goes off topic and you never get any substance. IOW, I need information, not jokes.

D-linemen or L-backers, it's still painful. And yes, the only time I've gone down is when my foot was pinned to the ground, as opposed to being run over.
I've been triying to find one with some cleat to it, as opposed to a smoother botton. My toes got stepped on twice last season, so I'm really more interested in a steel toe. I don't think the metatersal protector is needed as much. I'm looking for a new pair of shoes, so why not kill two birds...?
