HEALTH ALERT Fellow Tiger fans- It's that time of the year. In the coming days, and weeks, we will continue to feel pleasant breezes mixed with bountiful sunshine. We will notice the increasing, sweet aroma of spring blossoms filling the air. We will bask in the excitement of another great Tiger baseball season while eating massive amounts of Louisiana crawfish and drinking excessive, yet gratifying amounts of ice cold beer. HOWEVER....BE WARNED. After much comprehensive study, we at the Tiger-SportsFan's Health Center have discovered an alarming potential for a rapid spread of the seasonal PTFBS Syndrome, a serious mental and physical sickness which is expected to ignite regional panic this year. Early evaluation of the number of reported cases has unveiled an unusually high frequency of PTFBS Syndrome occurences for such an early time of the year. PTFBS Syndrome is known throughout the medical profession scientifically as 'Pre Tiger Football Season' Syndrome. Symptoms include, but are not limited to: - Prolonged periods of mild to moderate depression. - General feeling of restlessness and agitation. - Insomnia. - Uncharacteristic agression. Those infected often exhibit a similar pattern of behavioral habits, including: - Persistent, and dangerously overexcessive day dreaming involving tailgating, and/or upcoming football related plans. *(This is the number one sign of infection) - 4+ hours of web-inactivity spent daily on LSU affiliated websites. - Constant, annoying vocalized evaluation of insignificant sports subject matter. - Exceedingly improper dedication to insignificant sports subject matter. - Overexcessive urination *(still being researched) Please see the agency's site for more imformation. FOR THE PURPOSE OF EASE OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLEASE SELF-REPORT ANY NEW CASES ON THIS THREAD, INCLUDING ANY EXPLANATIONS OF PREVIOUSLY UN-MENTIONED SYMPTOMS OR SPECIAL CONCERNS (WHICH WILL BE ADDRESSED ACCORDINGLY AND IN A TIMELY MANNER). PLEASE STAY CALM, AND REMEMBER- IT IS IMPORTANT THAT EVERY CASE BE REPORTED. IF YOU THINK YOU ARE INFECTED, REPLY IMMEDIATELY -------->
I've been experiencing those symptoms since Jan. 5, 2004. I guess "PTFBS Syndrome" hit early this year... :cry: :cry: :grin: :grin:
I thought I was terminal, but the doctor said to watch the SECCG and NC game videos as needed and on September 4th I'll be back to normal.
