How is it the Health Dept. has not stepped in and condemned the place? A better solution would be lock the doors and suspend team operations until higher order intelligence sets in. Oops, i forgot i was talking about Cleveland. The decision to suspend Winslow was a typical Cleveland Brown-out. How is it the Health Dept. has not stepped in and condemned the place?

The best thing the team can do is hire experts to check the stadium for disease. Then come back with a report. Heh, I believe we do need to know where they contracted the virus.

That's some bad stuff and is supposed to be sooooo hard to get rid of. It takes an antibiotic cocktail to even begin to fight it, I think, because no one thing works. So, I'm not even sure cleaning with bleach is good enough. They call MRSA the Superbug. If, in fact, that's what this is then it may be the nature of the bug that's making it hard to get rid of.

And yes, they should also have a team doctor. If they had made this known earlier, then there wouldn't be such a good deal. And yes, they should also have a team doctor.

If so, LET BRADY QUIN PLAY or let him trade to Miami!!! Bombs away Brady, but no high fives and don't lick your hand like Dan Marino used to after the football hit the ground and was touched by so many dirty hands. EWWWWWW!!.

Winslow was not suspended for saying he had a staph infection. It was the way he went about it that got him in trouble. LeCharles Bentley got the staff infection AFTER knee surgery. Last I heard the Browns don't own a surgical unit . I'm not even sure Bentley was in Cleveland when he got staph. Bentley came back to the team, they cleared him to play. The Browns were willing to give him a chance. It was Bentley with a bruised ego that asked to be released after he learned he'd have to earn a starting position. Where did you get Joe Jurevicius is out because of a staph infection? The other news sites have him out with a knee injury, no mention of staph. Who are these other "confirmed" cases of staph whose careers ended? Rafer, get your facts straight!!

They seem to make everything else public. Also, they need a new team doc in my opinion. Something is not right with that situation. I can see if the team released the info without the player knowing this but he is the one that made it public. No HIPPA laws being broke in that case. One last thing, how does this affect the other teams they play? Do they tell them?? Make it public! They seem to make everything else public. Also, they need a new team doc in my opinion.

The chemical sanitizer WILL kill all staph and any other infectious diseases. Problem solved, if they are contracting it from the facility.

It could be from his house, the park, even a club he went to. This is a very common bacteria. So why is the team so conserned? leads me to think there is alot more to this story.

But lets keep this in perspective. 6 confirmed cases of staph from one common location speaks for itself. Something is wrong. And if players are catching it (they are in superior health) then they are taking this sickness home to their families. And exposing others during the week when they are out shopping ,at restaurants, at thier childrens soccer games, etc... I do not know what happens in the Browns locker room, but if the Browns were addressing this issue, now is the time for them to tell us what they are doing about it.
