    There's a story floating around that she was at Browns game as guest of Johnny TD and now both The Steelers and Browns might have to be quarantined.

    Given the Browns history of bad luck it certainly seems plausible.

    I'm very damn skeptical of this virus.

    New York is a melting pot of international travel, and the only place we're hearing about this is DALLAS?

    I hear ya, but I don't think that's at all unique to the Ebola situation. Hospitals (and the Tamiflu manufacturer) were overwhelmed with H1N1 patients in 2009, too.

    All SOPs need to be adapted, ironed out or amended based on real-life curveballs. Sometimes, unfortunately, it takes a little bit of practice to do so. That won't last much longer than it already has.

    The simple idiocy of this statement is delightful.

    Visiting parents in Tallmadge near Akron. Although I did see a weird post pop up on the Browns subreddit about the game connection.

    Then you're a fucking loon. It's transferred by those traveling from Africa. Do you realize NYC has more air traffic from any part of the world than any other metro area with an airport or are you just so politically head up your ass to see this any other way?

    You'd probably blow this off too, idiot.

    The Dallas Fort Worth Airport is the fourth busiest in the country, busier by far than JFK or LaGuardia, or Newark.

    Johnny Ebola?

    I'm referring to the epidemic panic aspect. Not that Ebola can kill.

    COMBINE the NYC airports. Re-do the math.

    So wait, this was a female guest of Johnny Manziel who flew (or was flown) all the way to Cleveland just for one of his games?

    I'm thinking chances are pretty good Johnny Freakin' Football has had some contact with her bodily fluids.

    Hahahaha. That's where the infected guy went. If he went to New York, it would be in New York. I don't get the point you're making. What about it being in Dallas makes you "very damn skeptical of this virus," which, again, is hilarious. Was it made up in a sound stage like the moon landing?
