I thought turf toe was the condition first made noticeable by Tony Williams. Sufferers tend to stand perfectly still with their arms hanging loosely by their sides as they stare dumbly at the play unfolding around them.
During these moments of faze out, the turf actually grows between and over their toes and gives the sufferer the appearance of being root bound to the spot.
Sufferers are rarely ever actually root bound, unless they are in a committed relationship. Partners of these people should be committed.
