Didn't they learn anything from BRUCE?

[Bling]

Well, I guess you guys have an excuse now, in case you lose.

[Historian]

I have one every year, and I'm still sick.

Playing in the rain all day doesn't help either.

[Gunzlingr]

Just because you get a flu shot doesn't mean you aren't going to get the flu. There are many different strains of it going around all the time, and they guess which one will be most prevalent, so that is what they vacinate for. You can still get the others.

[Mitchy moo]

Well hopefully they can recover in the next 4 days!!

THANK YOU! I have always felt had he played both from the emotional and physical standpoint, we beat Pittsburgh in that playoff game.


Seriously phil, am I off base here? surely with all they have on the line, these guys health is paramount....they dont' have them take flu shots? I'm sorry but thats friggin stupidity. All the money they pay them, all the money into health, fitness, strength training, diet, rehab etc....but hey lets just skip the flu shot.....IN WESTERN NY NO LESS!

Nothing like making a mountain out of a mole hill.

[Saratoga Slim]

Yeah. We're talking about the flu. Not the Black Plague. I imagine most of these guys can play through it. JP practiced, just didn't feel up to talking to the media. I imagine it was a convenient excuse.

[Jeff1220]

I get a flu shot most years and I never get the flu when I do. However, I usually get colds a few times a year. Could this be a mixing of terminology.

just because these guys make a ton of money,it doesn't mean they're immuned to getting sick.

Pee Wee athletes in Tulsa are immune to everything.

Pee Wee athletes in Tulsa are immune to everything.

that's a good nickname for ICE.



Pee Wee.....

[BAM]

Crap.

[SquishDaFish]

You can still get the flu even with the shot smart guy.

[Cntrygal]

I get the damn flu shot (or flu mist) every frickin year and I get REALLY sick EVERY time. I hate it. The ONLY times I haven't ended up REALLY sick - are the years I managed to dodge the damn thing. But unfortunately that seems to be the one database that's get updated in a timely manner. DAMMIT.
