The best part of the Rangers winning the ALCS yesterday is we get to hear how the Rangers’ owner “just hires good people and stays out of their way” and everyone going “I wish a certain football team’s owner would hear that message.”
Ice should be applied as soon as possible. Never apply ice directly on the toes, as the small blood vessels in the toes can easily go into spasm when subjected to extreme cold. This can stop blood from getting to the toe, and is dangerous. Ice should be applied to the top of the foot, or front of the ankle, so that as the blood flows under the ice, it will be cooled. This cool blood flowing into the toe will help to reduce the swelling and pain. Apply the ice, wrapped in a cloth or over an elastic bandage, to the foot for 30 minutes, every 2 hours, for the first 3 days after an injury. If the ice is uncomfortable or causes increased pain, do not continue to use it, and see a doctor.
Tech lost to UVa. Order has been restored in the ACC as of yesterday. Clemson at the top, Duke at the bottom.
