    I feel for him.

    He's going to have a miserable next two months (and the two after that aren't much better!)

    Good on the Society for putting out a press release on this:
    http://www.feetforlife.org/cgi-bin/item.cgi?ap=1&id=2437&d=pnd&dateformat=%o-%B

    I think someone does need to point out to them that Beckham actually ruptured his tendon and the Society's advice for "people with similar injuries" was all about achilles tendonitis. I not the brightest Podiatrist on this planet. but I do know that an achilles rupture is not achille tendonitis!

    I agree, a bit confusing.
