Swine Flu, South Florida and the "Pigskin"

[Brad]

From this article, Will Swine Flu Derail The Football Season? which came out today:

"Flu or flu-like symptoms have hit programs at Tulane, Duke, Alabama, Louisiana Tech, South Florida, SMU, LSU, Florida, Georgia, Washington State and Wisconsin. Arkansas, the only NCAA team with a porcine nickname, remains ironically immune."

Swine Flu will destroy us 

I haven't heard anything, I think a media outlet could be wrong imagine that.

Porcine nickname?

[Cow Pie]

Its getting rather nasty... St. Leo had 2 dozen cases and Tampa Catholic has almost 40% of the school infected with the bug... i have yet to hear of a case at USF though.

If it gets any worse I'll have to add a contagion mask to my game day attire.

Carlton Mitchell posted on his facebook a few days ago that he wasn't feeling well and was spending the night with a bottle of Nyquil.

I think there were two players that had the flu, Popek and someone else.

Actually there were more than that...but Popek and Webster had it.  Webster was dehydrated from the game because of it, and he said he felt a step slower in the game then everyone else because of it.  He was playing, and the training staff was pumping him with fluid, and Tresey was still on him on the sidelines for something in the 3rd quarter.
