In it, Sanders said the complications from his surgery, which included blood clots and the collection of fluid in his foot, could have been even worse. The fluid in the foot is correctable. I had injury with surgery following and my doctor prescribed me a device from Tactile Medical called Flexitouch Plus. It used for helping with damaged lymph nodes in foot and help compress the water up the leg so body can remove it. Maybe he did not want to get one because it does not match his outfits. That was very important to when he played and was in broadcasting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elijah Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 When did everyone get so sensitive .. A bunch of anonymous dudes on a message board making a joke out of a millionaire celebrity losing a couple toes. I’m sure Deion Sanders does not care at all what anyone on this board says, much less even knows this board exists. Better yet, he seems like the type of guy that would probably laugh at this if not make the joke himself Relax a little, laugh at it. It was a funny pun, a funny joke.

jlgarsh Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 My grandpa lost 2 & 1/2 toes due to poor circulation/blood clots. He had to get staples down his whole leg when they did the surgery. That was back in 1991. Sucks that Deion is in a similar situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping this thread gets closed. Long story, but I almost had my left big toe amputated from the knuckle up in high school before freshman year. That is your main balance/push off toe. The Braves surgeon managed to save it, but it took a couple years. I was active in sports in high school and college, then became a VERY avid tennis player as an adult. I’m not “outraged” and it’s a clever title, but I can’t make fun of it as it hits close to home. I still have issues with that toe. That is some serious chit. Think about it, your big toe does all the work! On a side note, my wife’s Lebanese family is lactose intolerant, and there is nothing funny about that either. Especially in a car on the ride home! 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsShredder83 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Its no secret that I am TBDs franchise amputee. I would like to point out that while words do hurt, none hurt worse than the one's heard coming from that smooth brained d*bag, Deion Sanders.

Buffalo Junction Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Clever title. Dark humor and empathy run hand in hand. As someone missing pieces due to trauma I empathize…. At the same time….

He may just think that you're a dick. Thinking it's inappropriate to make jokes about someone having parts of their body amputated is not being sensitive, it's just how most decent people think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have issues with that toe. That is some serious chit. Think about it, your big toe does all the work! I have problems with both of my big toes where joints are locked and any stubbing of it would put me in tremendous pain. It was in so much pain I considered amputation. Doctor said she would try to correct one of them to see if it helped. There is more flexibility and I am no longer in shooting pain but not enough improvement for her to consider 2nd operation. I still consider it funny especially for a player who was called "twinkle toes" by some broadcasters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Some people know no end when it comes to keeping Rex Ryan at bay. But honestly, I feel for the guy. He basically made his career with his feet.
