What the fck is it with these players always fighting "the flu"? Is it just me or do basketball players have the highest rate of flu of any profession? In any given series there is usually 1-2 guys out of 20 fighting the flu at any given time. I don't really get it. Is it just an excuse for the coach in case the team doesn't perform? Have they heard of flu shots? Am I the only one who has noticed this? Serious question

#3"have they heard of flu shots?"
Holy shit you are penetrating dumb. the statistics show that getting a flu shot makes you about 100 times more likely to get a flu. all vaccinations are a scam and a lie put over on an unknowing public of ducking moronsComment -

#7the reason they have the flu is very simple. The act of sweating depletes the blood of all nutrients. Without replacing said nutrients you will get sick and I assure you that less than 10% of the NBA is on to this fact. they pay trainers millions of dollars a year and still don't know stuff a 25 year old kid knows. tape is titled "Dead athletes don't lie" and if you listen you'll know close to what I know.
Dead athletes don't lie.

#13I think "the flu" is just bullshit for something else going on. Anxiety, family problems, hang over, drug problems, etc. Something more embarrassing to admit to "the public". It's a sickness that is over in a couple weeks and can be used as an excuse for anything else.
The flu is just an easy out for both the player and the coach. I just thought maybe somebody on this board had a bit more insight. There is no way that 1 out of every 10 players contract the flu every couple weeks. That would mean on average these NBA players have the flu 5 times a year. Tip top shape athletes. Doesn't make any sense. Yet everybody fckn believes it. And when Kobe scores 35 pts when he's got "the flu" we all love him. I'm over it. These fcks are full of shit.Comment -

#22It's not rocket sience. After intense physical activity the body focuses more on recovering meaning your immune system is weakened during that period of time. But there is a easy fix for this: plenty off rest, healthy eating and some extra vitamins to give the body a boost.
While exercise is beneficial, be careful not to "overdo" it. People who already exercise regularly are cautioned not to develop too vigorous a workout program in the hopes of increasing the immunity benefits. Heavy, long-term exercise (such as marathon running and intense gym training) could actually decrease the amount of white blood cells circulating through the body and increase the presence of stress-related hormones.Comment -

#27Oh Trevor. You make those of us who question the popular belief look like psychopaths. Simmah down nah. I'm as big a conspiracy nut as anybody, but you reflect us as badly as child molester priests reflect religion.
Just wanted to ask a simple question that google can't answer. Would like to know what the fck is going on with this flu shit. It's obviously bullshit, but everybody eats it up and doesn't ask the question.
I have to show up to work every morning. Been doing it for 8 years now. Never had to call in because I had "the flu". Been hung over a few times and blamed it on the flu, but I guess that's my point.Comment -

#29The flu shot injects you with dead virus particles. You cannot get the flu from the flu shot, unless you got injected with a fcked up batch that was still alive. You can still get the flu within a few weeks after getting the shot, as it takes a few weeks to develop immunity. And as jayson said, the virus is constantly evolving. Getting an updated flu shot once a year will protect you the majority of the time.Comment -

In basketball if Carmelo isn't hitting jumpers and JR Smith is going out to the clubs every damn night (and then like a bigger douche releasing a statement saying the failure of the team is on him because he has been playing like shit...after the whole world has saw him play like shit for a while), then the Knicks lose.
In the NFL if you have some thug-wannabe or lazy ass on your team (someone like Randy Moss for years and years, for example), well your QB (like Colin Kapernick) can just throw to the other side of the field. Thank God the most important people on NFL teams, such as Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, actually give a shit and aren't just boozing it up for hours and hours before the games like most NBA players/actors.Comment -

The only protection you can have from the flu is optimal mineral supplementation. I can say without a doubt I won't be sick another day in my life due to my supplementation habits. the entire theory of sickness is upside down in todays world and its sad. These carbohydrate food stuffs are what make you all sick. The vaccine is an abomination and is literally population control right under our noses. Anyone who agrees to these vaccinations is a fool beyond measure.
This is a very interesting view on germ theory and I find it to be undoubtedely true if you think about it rationally and listen to the argument.
