To answer your question, here's your Brady Quinn joke for the day: Some basic googling brought up a study that says staph is a growing problem among gay men. San Fran, apparently, has an extremely high rate of staph infections.

Staph is about 10 times scarier and more deadly than anyone really knows about. The problem with that is while it seems like some media outlets are finally getting around to acknowledge it, and that's good, their spin on this "deadly NEW infection" is completely wrong, and doing little to help the situation. MRSA's been around for quite some time.

MRSA's no cause for mass panic in the streets (for crying out loud, the plague is still around), but intelligence and transparency between doctors and patients in the matter is sorely needed. Good luck to Kelly, and he's definitely going to need more time before that fight. #kellypavlik

The hometown judges still awarded Pavlik a split decision victory over the infection. #kellypavlik

In a few words: Nobody in this town washes their fucking hands, covers their mouth when they sneeze or cough, or throws their trash in a garbage can.

I came home last week to find someone had pissed in the hallway of my apartment building. It was the middle of the afternoon. And I live in a relatively decent place.

It's a bitch having OCD in a place like this, lemme tell you. #kellypavlik
