well, i would never play if i was hurt, and i LOVE football more than anyone you will ever talk to, but i know that if i play being hurt, i will only hurt myself more, i had to wait 5 months to get healed from my knee injury, how do you think that was for me? every day, all i could think about was getting better and playing again, but i waited, and i got healed, and thats what you should do
