Hightower misses practice with "illness"

wrangler said:

It wasn't pro ball but in high school I played with the flu. My mom was a former nurse
and doctored me up. Bottom line, I played the best game of my HS career. Just saying,
10% knowledge 90% desire. Flame away my friends....?.

I think brady had the flu or some illness in the 04 afcc at Pittsburgh, one of his classic outings

That wasn't the flu. It was very likely norovirus (a.k.a. cruise ship disease).

Heck yeah

Those people are doing Darwin’s work for him. Maybe if we’re REALLY lucky, we can get Polio back too.

I just hope it's not stomach related bug. Those are ferocious and contagious as fck.

In our last 3 SB there is a direct correlation between winnings and Hightower on the field making plays.

After Brady we need him so bad I hope is just something minor.

He was hooked up to an IV in his hotel room the night before the game, knew he was something special after that game.

This is good news...I hope. That is, I hope he isn't doing a "damn the germs, full speed ahead!" thing this early in the week, 'cause of the contagion.

But there's also the remote possibility that the team medical staff is more on top of this than I am.

Ironically, viral evolution is one of the easiest ways to see natural selection at work. That's why we have no vaccine against HIV. I bet Darwin would be fascinated by anti-vaxxers.

Hightower is gonna have a Jordan Flu game.

He looks a little ill there in the photo, but of course he could have just been getting a question from Volin.

Of course. Idiots are always fascinating.

I agree. Everyone brings up Butler from last season. Rightfully so. But do the Eagles still convert 11 of 16 3rd & 4th downs with HT out there? I have my doubts. His loss was huge.

I am just thankful we will not be subjected to the likes of Bademosi, Richards, Lee, and Rowe out there this year. Lol.
