The George Allen one is pretty weak. Getting wet/cold can't make you sick so his players did not lead to him getting pneumonia.

I think it is funny that most people don't know that you can die from drinking too much water.

Maybe I'm reading this wrong. But that's what you find funny? I think Dave Chappell is funny. That's just kind of an odd thing to find funny. I get this vision of you standing in a mall and lughing at people as they walk by because they didn't know of a way you could die.

I guess I should find it funny that most people don't know that the food thickener in a Jelly donut (methocell) can shred your lungs if you breathe it in it's powdered form.


HAHAHAHAHAH!!! It IS FUNNY!
