You have a good point. Playing the home balls doesn't have that much risk, but with away games, you can never know where the balls have been.

Legionaires?
My initial thought too, but I don't think it's that warm in Reno right now. It usually comes from the moisture that builds up and sits in big air conditioning units.

Sounds much like waht has been hitting the cruise ships! An air conditioning system makes an excellent dispersal system for a terrorist bio attack.

Psychogenic Illness? Is that what I get when I become physically ill (nauseous) at the very thought of eating gefilte fish at Passover?

Anytime - I know when I was in school, our P.E. Teacher was always concerned about it - "Always keep your equipment clean", he would say...

Damnit, next time indicate you are talking of Nevada.
I was jumping up and down and cheering what I thought was Janet getting her just reward. Talk about a letdown.

"We aren't even close to having a guess on the cause," ... therefore no quarantine, no preventative methods! Same response with other cases in the U.S. where symptoms come close but do not fulfill WHO requirements for SARS.
Full CYA mode, avoid liability, maintain denial, avoid bad publicity.
The trouble is that no credible trust will emerge in the health system in the future.
