Tony Crocker and sleeves question

[suncoastsooner]

Are the officials not going to allow him to wear traditional long sleeves this season despite his medical condition? I know he is wearing the arm warmer things but he used to be allowed to wear traditional long sleeves...

I know I asked this on the game thread but didn't think I was going to get a reply there because of the speed it is moving.

What condition does he have?

What condition does he have?

I don't remember the name or the actual term but it involves poor circulation and it makes it harder for him to maintain body temperature and he tends to get physically cold easier than most people.

I can't remember what it's called but I think it has to do with a little slower blood circulation or something like that to where he feels colder. Someone else can probably explain it better.

VCU has a player with sleeves. Maybe he doesn't want to wear them anymore?

It's called Raynaud's Phenomenon.

TY Proud... wonder why he switched to the arm warmers?

I will ask him and report back. It may be tomorrow before I talk to him.

I talked to him and he said he just changed to the sleeves, no real reason. He is still allowed to wear the long sleeved shirt, but he just wanted to change it up.
