RJF Staph infection | Page 2 | 49ers Webzone Forum

ruthless49er · 2009-08-01T11:10:41-07:00

per MM twitter http://twitter.com/MattMaiocco He couldntve picked it up at the base. He checked in and was put on NFI list immediately after his physical. But it begs the question..why would they say its a stomach illness? Teams dont like the word "Staph-infection" to get out as weve seen with Josh Morgan last year and his pseudo-hush hush nature of his illness. Why would they hide it if its not thier fault? Someone with more insight cann help me out with this one.

Hope this Staph infection does not keep him out of camp to long.

I think almost two weeks and it took him about a month to get his weight back up if I remember correctly.

For the record, everyone, it is Ricky (no "e") Jean (not John, but the same sound) Francois (with an "o" included, and pronunciated- Fran-swah).

Cheers.

P.S. Jean-Francois in French means "damn lucky that Ray McDonald is on the PUP list".

So true.

We'll be lucky to have him full-strength by mid-season. He could spend months regaining the strength/weight/muscle that he, potentially, might lose.

Staph is no joke, I had MRSA last year. It sucked, but it left some pretty cool looking scars! The prison I work at had an outbreak of sorts and a fair amount of staff members caught it.
I still haven't been reimbursed by my employer for my hospital bill, lousy state of alaska.

I'm curious as to why the NFL as had alot of staff infections lately? I don't remember hearing about staff infections in the NFL a couple of years ago.
