It's mid summer and if you haven't been staking your floppiest floppers, the chance is you haven't quite gotten away with it. Some plants stand tall on their own. Others need a little help.In this Barrel Aged One More Sip of The Garden MIxer Leslie Harris and Marianne Willburn tackle one of gardening's most practical—and most overlooked—skills: staking. They discuss which plants are worth staking, which ones are better left alone, how to make supports nearly invisible, and why choosing the right plants in the first place can save you a lot of work.Along the way they share techniques learned at Great Dixter, the beauty of traditional pea-sticking, why timing matters, and a few confessions about staking jobs that never quite happened.Whether you're growing peonies, delphiniums, dahlias, grasses, or other tall perennials, this conversation will help you keep your garden looking natural instead of looking like a tomato patch.Gardening shouldn't be boring.

Episode Overview With Dr. Drew Lansdown away (and reportedly playing golf in Scotland), Brian and Nirav dive deep into the sports medicine landscape of the FIFA World Cup 2026. The episode covers the unique injury patterns in soccer, what surgeons and physicians need to understand about treating elite soccer players, and the injury prevention strategies that have strong data behind them. Key Topics Covered Why Soccer Produces High Rates of Non-Contact Injuries • ACL tears are the defining non-contact injury in soccer ◦ Soccer is the #1 sport played by female athletes — a population with well-established higher ACL tear rates ◦ Quick acceleration, deceleration, and multi-directional cutting movements are intrinsic to the sport ◦ Cognitive load during play (split-second decision-making while in the air) increases landing mechanics risk ◦ Classic example: the Wayne Rooney-type ACL — trying to split a defender while thinking two steps ahead leads to a mis-step • Game structure contributes to higher injury numbers ◦ 11 players per side means more total athletes on the field ◦ Longer games (90 minutes vs. basketball or football quarters) ◦ Combined effect: more player-hours of exposure per match Load Management & the World Cup Context • The World Cup paradox: fewer games per week than top club players are used to ◦ Example: Erling Haaland at Manchester City — club season + qualifiers + Champions League stacks up to more games/week than the World Cup ◦ The bigger concern is cumulative seasonal load, not the World Cup schedule itself • The World Cup is essentially an off-season add-on for elite players ◦ Comparable to asking NBA athletes to play the NBA season and then immediately compete in the Olympics • Travel is likely less of a factor than commonly assumed ◦ Elite clubs already manage heavy international travel; accommodations are often top-tier • Early specialization a compounding factor ◦ Many World Cup players have been playing since age 10–13 with little cross-sport participation, contributing to long-term cumulative load ◦ Notable exception: Norway — athletes there tend to play multiple sports ACL Surgery Considerations for Soccer Players • Graft selection overview ◦ Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone (BPTB): traditional gold standard — caveat is patella fracture risk with early falls onto the knee ◦ Quad Tendon: recent JBJS meta-analysis showed marginal superiority, but difference not clinically significant; less commonly used in soccer given importance of quad strength ◦ Hamstring ± Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis (LAT): widely used in the Premier League, largely driven by the influence of Andy Williams' work with top clubs • Return-to-play timeline ◦ Uniformly 9–12 months regardless of graft choice ◦ Phased rehab: gait & coordination → strength → agility → sport-specific • Key structural differences in elite soccer player care ◦ Academy pipeline provides high-quality early medical access — similar to minor league baseball feeder systems ◦ Bracing: elite soccer players use far fewer post-op braces and return-to-sport braces vs. American football or basketball athletes ◦ Less post-op bracing is not associated with worse outcomes in this population Hamstring Injuries in Soccer • Most common injury type in soccer globally • High-speed sprinting is the primary mechanism ◦ The hamstring functions eccentrically during the late swing phase of sprinting — peak load occurs just before foot strike ◦ The injury moment is often at the point of maximal lengthening under force • Grading and prognosis ◦ Grade 1 (mild strain): return in 1–2 weeks ◦ Grade 2 (partial tear): 3–6 weeks depending on location and extent ◦ Grade 3 (complete rupture or proximal avulsion): potentially surgical; weeks to months • Proximal hamstring avulsions deserve specific attention ◦ Complete proximal avulsions (from the ischial tuberosity) are increasingly managed operatively in athletes ◦ Strong evidence for surgical repair in high-demand athletes who want to return to competitive sport • Nordic hamstring curls: effective prevention tool (discussed later in injury prevention section) Ankle Injuries • Lateral ankle sprains are extremely common in soccer ◦ The ATF (anterior talofibular ligament) is most commonly injured ◦ Mechanism: plantar flexion + inversion, often from landing on another player's foot • The challenge of ankle turf toe and high ankle sprains ◦ Syndesmotic (high ankle) injuries are less common but significantly longer recovery — 6–10+ weeks • World Cup-specific context: artificial turf used in some venues ◦ Turf surfaces change force transmission through the ankle and may increase injury risk compared to natural grass Muscle Cramps: A World Cup Staple • Muscle cramping is ubiquitous in World Cup play — especially in heat/humidity ◦ Not a sign of poor conditioning — even elite players cramp ◦ Players accustomed to cooler climates (Northern Europe) are particularly susceptible • Mechanism: combination of dehydration, electrolyte depletion, and neuromuscular fatigue • Cramping is functionally debilitating even though it is not a structural injury • Treatment/prevention: aggressive electrolyte repletion ◦ Pickle juice: Brian and Nirav discuss — strong evidence in ultra-endurance contexts; electrolyte content is the likely mechanism ◦ Bananas, electrolyte drinks, gels — all have their place ◦ "Anything that repletes electrolytes" will help — athlete preference matters The Theatrics — Diving, Flopping & the Mystery Spray • Why do elite athletes go down so dramatically? ◦ Getting kicked in an unprotected lower extremity genuinely hurts — shin guards are getting smaller (Nirav jokes about a quarter-sized guard his daughter uses) ◦ Foul strategy: falling can draw calls or stop play — gamesmanship is real • The spray — what is it? ◦ Best evidence: a topical cooling spray similar to Icy Hot or ethyl chloride ◦ Temporarily numbs the skin and superficial nerve endings at the contusion site ◦ Not a structural fix — purely symptomatic/neurological effect on acute pain ◦ The shock of impact often wears off naturally — the spray may assist with that transition Injury Prevention — What the Data Actually Shows • FIFA 11+ Program ◦ Developed by FIFA and extensively validated in peer-reviewed literature ◦ Components: core strengthening, glute/hamstring activation, agility drills ◦ Consistent reduction in injury rates by approximately 50% ◦ How to find it: search "FIFA 11+ injury prevention" (not just "FIFA 11" — that returns the video game) ◦ Widely implemented at elite levels; underutilized in youth soccer where practice time is dominated by skill drills and scrimmaging • Nordic Hamstring Curls ◦ Strong and growing evidence for both hamstring injury prevention AND ACL injury risk reduction ◦ Works by strengthening the hamstring eccentrically — addressing the exact mechanism of hamstring strains ◦ Compliance challenge: extraordinarily difficult to perform correctly, especially in older athletes ◦ Brian and Nirav agree: nearly impossible to complete a full set, especially with added weight • Implementation gap: what gets done vs. what works ◦ Youth coaches prioritize the "fun stuff" — drills, scrimmage — over warm-up protocols ◦ 15 minutes of evidence-based warm-up is a hard sell when kids are paying for club-level coaching and want to play Clinical Pearls for Practitioners • Graft selection for soccer players is multifactorial — consider quad strength demands and fall-on-knee risk before defaulting to BPTB • Post-op bracing: the European/Premier League model of minimal bracing in elite soccer players is worth considering — less may be more in highly compliant athletes • Proximal hamstring avulsions in competitive athletes warrant surgical consultation — non-operative outcomes in this population are often unsatisfactory • Cramping ≠ poor conditioning — counseling athletes and families on this distinction is important • FIFA 11+ should be part of any soccer athlete's injury prevention conversation, especially in youth programs • Nordic curls: prescribe them, warn patients they are difficult, and set realistic expectations Quotable Moments "The World Cup paradoxically is actually fewer games per week than a lot of these players are used to." — Dr. Feeley "It's like asking NBA athletes to come in, play the NBA season, and then play in the Olympics." — Dr. Feeley on cumulative load "Our youngest now uses something the size of a quarter... that's her shin guard." — Dr. Pandya on evolving shin guard trends "Nordic curls are almost impossible. That's why you see people doing them." — Dr. Feeley "Anything that repletes electrolytes is going to be beneficial." — Dr. Feeley on cramping management Please subscribe to our podcast at Apple PodcastsCheck out our website on Simplecast

The Yankees beat the Royals again and Gerrit Cole worked into the 7th inning with a shutout. We heard Howie Rose on the call as Juan Soto homered in the Mets win over the Reds. Phillies pitcher Cristopher Sanchez broke the Phillies record for scoreless innings with 44 ⅔. Rays pitcher Jonathan Heasley vomited several times on the mound last night. Adam Silver was on with Pat McAfee and talked about flopping and officiating.

Gio wonders if Juan Soto cares that his team stinks since he's still hitting well, then questions if former Mets coach Jeremy Hefner is the real reason the Braves staff is number one or if they just always have guys. Jerry returns for an update, but the show spends a lot of time on weiner pills. In baseball, the Yankees shutout the Royals behind Ben Rice's production, the Mets beat the Reds thanks to Carson Benge's RBIs, and Rays pitcher Jonathan Heasley vomits on the mound. Finally, Mike Vrabel is asked if he needs more time off, and SGA sends a cease and desist letter to Underdog Sports over videos of him flopping.
