Q) I've got 2. 1. Do you take a vitamin D supplement or eat a lot of fortified margarine, oily fish, liver, fortified breakfast cereals and dairy products for improved muscle strength and less pain in your knee? AND 2. I was a running back in high school in Nebraska from 94 to 98, so whatever you did, I would follow. That's how we all were, in Nebraska, of course. OK, here it is... Bo's Back, is the option still the way to go in college, and could it be utilized more in the pros? You ran the option to Perfection so many times in 1995 on the Unanimous Best College Football Team EVER, how can the option become obsolete just like that once you jump to the pros? Good Luck this Year, Ahman. As Always, I'll try to draft you in the Fantasy League.

A) Kurt I try to eat right and follow a strict diet, and that includes fish and foods like that. We have a pretty detailed plan here in the NFL, and I follow what my athletic trainers tell me to do to keep my legs healthy.

As for the option, I'm not sure it would work in the NFL. The defenses are so fast, that if you spend time running laterally, they're going to get to you. You have to get up the field quickly. I like the option in college if you have the right quarterback and if you have enough speed in the backfield. It sure worked for us.

Thank you for your support, man. I appreciate it very much.
 
Q) When are you coming back to Omaha? --Cecil Evans, Omaha

 --Cecil Evans, Maple Shade, NJ

A) I was just back there to watch my daughter run track, so I get back as often as I can. I know you, Cecil! Thank you for stopping by and saying hello!
 
Q) Hey Ahman, I was wondering if you remember what you used to do to get faster?

 --ali shaban, dearborn, MI

A) I do speed work, which consists of things like running stadium stairs, running ramps, sled work pulls, bungee-chord pulls and parachute sprints? I work on my explosive motion and my burst.
 
Q) How fast did you run the 40? Me and my friend are arguing because I say you are the fastest halfback in the NFL right now.

 --john battaglia, brooklyn, NY

A) I haven't run the 40 in some time, probably two years, but the last time I did I ran a 4.29. I don't know about being the fastest running back in the league. I know I work hard on maintaining my speed. I run hills, I run sprints and I do a lot of lower-body workouts.
 
Q) You just came off a 14 carry, 102 yard day. You're probably my FAVORITE player to watch in the NFL. Anything can happen at any time when you have the ball, and I don't mean to sway ANYTHING about your team play, 'cause I understand how important that is, but do you feel you could help the Packers more this year if you got the ball a little more on the ground? Last two games you've run the ball, a total of 28 times. You've done the most with what you've been given this year. As your fan, and not so much, Brett Favre's fan, I just wondered if you're as frusterated as(I can't speak for anyone else), maybe, some of your fans are. It was majorly evident when in the two previous games the Seahawks gave up nearly 400 yards rushing on the ground, then the Packers don't run the ball at all against such a weak defense. Thanks for letting me vent. You are definitely awesome for even reading these. Bless.

 --Tim Peteson, Vancouver, WA

A) Whatever the coaches want is fine with me. We're all here to win games. That is what is most important. So if the coaches think we should throw more, than we need to throw the football. Of course I want the ball. Everybody wants the ball. I want to win more, though.
 
Q) Ahman, I'm a native Wisconsin guy who's currently residing in Illinois. As a lifelong Packers fan in "enemy territory", I just want to offer you encouragement and support particularly regarding that last game on the regular schedule. I know the team has improved a lot since your first meeting with the Bears, and you'll be much more competitive this time. Any keys you can share on how to break down their run defense? Thanks for all your efforts.

 --Randy Nicholson, Rockford, IL

A) I feel for you, living in Bears country! Hey, the Bears have a great run defense. They have a great defense overall. We just have to be prepared to play well. I think the line has improved a lot since early in the year, so we'll keep working at it. If we show a commitment to the run, I think we can run on any team.
 
Q) Hey Ahman, I play freshman ball in high school, and in middle school I was a big part of the team and now they don't seem to notice me. Could you give me some advice to get noticed?

 --daniel kennedy, crown point, IN

A) I know this sounds like something you hear from everybody, but just keep working hard. Hard work and the best effort you can give is all you need, because coaches notice the kids who don't take short cuts, who don't do things they aren't supposed to do. I mean it. Just work hard. This is a team sport. The ones who work the hardest, who put the effort in every day, they are the ones who are rewarded. Be patient, stay humble and keep working hard.
 
Q) Hi Ahman! I am so glad that you are doing better considering your injuries this year. I was able to see you at Packer Family Night and that was great!! I wish you were playing. I am hoping that this year I can get a Happy Birthday wish from you. I tryed last year for my 30th and thought I would try this year to get a wish from you. You are my favorite player and I love the Packers. Thanks and have a great rest of the season! Amber, Rochester, MN

 --Amber Smith , Rochester, MN

A) Amber, I appreciate you being a fan of mine. Packer Family Night was a good time. I love seeing the fans. What can I say?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMBER!!!
