play at the pirate ship....catch a disease.

[rayzor]

 

Reports are surfacing from all over the place that there is a case of MRSA, commonly known as Staph infection, going around the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The NFL's Ian Rapoport reports that in addition to kicker Lawrence Tynes, guard Carl Nicks was diagnosed with MRSA on Thursday and cornerback Jonathan Banks was diagnosed on Friday.

Here's why you should care: the Eagles play the Buccaneers on Sunday. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the NFL Players' Association may recommend not playing the game on Sunday depending the outcome of a report on the MRSA containment of Raymond James Stadium.

Bucs GM Mark Dominik said they have a third case of MRSA. Team has been in contact with NFL and NFLPA.

With 3 known cases of MRSA among Bucs players and none known among 31 other NFL clubs, the team does not believe the workplace is unsafe.

NFLPA tells @wingoz that, depending on what MRSA containment report says, the NFLPA could advise Bucs-Eagles not to play this weekend.

 

nflpa may advise that the game not play this week in tampa...which would really suck for them because:

#Bucs game with the Eagles Sunday is a complete sellout, the team announced.

how often does that happen?

 

seriously, it's not a disease that you want to mess around with. lawrence tynes is out for the year and carl nicks is out indefinitely and it's probably going to be the same for banks and mrsa can do some real damage.

 

still, it's almost comical what's happened with that team this year. it would be a shame not to be able to capitalize on it.

We have a need at guard, Carl Nicks has a need to not use team facilities that can kill him

It's a perfect match if the price is right

Plan

 

Step 1: Kidnap the NE Patriots

Step 2: Lock them in the Bucs Locker Room

Step 3: Wait

As if Tampa needed any more highly communicable diseases making the rounds...

Waiting for someone to photoshop a rash onto the Bucs logo :blink:

The Bucs aren't really known for being extravagant. Wouldn't surprise me if they clean the locker room with a dirty mop and previously used water.

But it would surprise me if they clean the locker room.

I'm going to Tampa for the TNF game. Lord have MRSA.

[JawnyBlaze]

NFL should make TB forfeit the game for not being able to provide safe working conditions.

Better wear a body condom.

It would probably be healthier to just spend game time at Mons Venus and watch it on the tube.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not that I know about those kind of places...a friend told me about it.

[Ruff]

Um, if I was the Eagles, or anyone NFL team for that matter, there is no way in hell I would want to go near that place. MRSA is a very, very serious infection and can cause life threatening problems.

 

fug that noise.
