So weird this idea "battles an illness" actually illnesses just beat ya up,,I don't know why there is this notion one actually "fights" an illness..they aren't "fighting"anything..there's a virus sort of eating away on.. you can't really "fight " a virus that's not how it works..its more like a person hosts a virus or bug that is eating away on its victim and could pop off onto others after it multiplies ..lol ..hard to fight something that gets into membranes or the lungs or whatever and multiplies.

"prominent playmaker battled a stomach bug while on the court. Despite his reputation as a five-time All-NBA standout, his discomfort impacted his usual dynamic presence. His struggle against an illness served as a stark reminder of how physical setbacks can shift the balance even among elite athletes. With every play, it became clear that the impact of his condition resonated throughout the team’s offensive rhythm."

...Masked Man thinks this is the biggest load of hogwash Ive ever heard sports commentary on the dynamics of how a virus is affecting the athlete!? Ha! This is ridiculous its like the author is trying to write poetry about a something that makes ya spew chunks or give ya the runs or a fever..ridicoulous sports commentary! :)

https://motorcyclesports.net/nuggets-face-unexpected-illness-outbreak-while-battling-clippers-as-david-adelman-raises-concerns-over-steve-ballmers-surprising-accusations/

The article reads:
"sudden outbreak of illness has cast a long shadow over the Nuggets, creating turmoil at a critical juncture in their playoff journey. The disruption is not isolated to the players alone—it has permeated every layer of the organization. Interim head coach David Adelman has emphasized that the contagion has affected everyone from the coaching staff to the front office, intensifying the pressures of an already demanding arena."

Let's  rewrite this poem:

"Virus Sportsplay"
a  poem  by Masked Man

Sudden wave of illness has cast
A long shadow over my nuggets

It starts as an itch that turns into fire
sleep and rest is all I desire

Toil and trouble  in each of my bodies junctures is in turmoil

I turn to my friends
But alas what started as a speck has turned into a boil!

What started as a tickle in the throat
Has made us all sick!

Permeated every layer of the organization
Better think quick what a stench

Anybody ever think enough to get
a diagnosis of this as of yet?!"

by Masked Man


Masked Man thinks oh dear what is illness is it!?!? Who cares about the pressures of the arena.. what about some diagnosis here.. anybody consider maybe going to the doctor and figuring that out? Man, these sports guys aren't very competitive when it comes to scoring a diagnosis!
They wrote "a sudden outbreak of illness has cast a long shadow over the Nuggets" Masked Man thinks jeesh it cast a shadow!? lol a pretty little shadow!? Ha! These are like poets when they describe outbreaks ..I'd describe its more like a blight, as shadow might be putting it kind of mild.

this guy is an announcer and he's not announcing what he's got .. is it shame of diagnosis or something? I still can't get over the lack of discloser of what the diagnosis is. Its just weird how secretive or ignorant.. most people that hide what they got is because its a sexually transmitted disease or something that carries the stigma of shame... its probably not a sexually transmitted diseases that carries a lot of stigma... I can see where a guy might not want to blurt out Ive got Syphilis or Gonorrhea in my throat but to hide whether they got covid or flu seems kind of deceptive nowadays ..we wanna know if covid is going around again so we can protect ourselves!

An illness forces the Wild to replace Gustavsson with Fleury at goalie against Golden Knights

1. MSN.

https://www.msn.com/en-ca/sports/other/an-illness-forces-the-wild-to-replace-gustavsson-with-fleury-at-goalie-against-golden-knights/ar-AA1DSXAF?ocid=socialshare

The article quotes the coach(a coach that knew his player wasn’t feeling good or quite up to snuff even before the game):

“Wild coach John Hynes said Gustavsson's illness “came up during the game.”

But Fleury knew there was a chance he needed to be ready.

I knew Gus wasn’t feeling great before the game, but he battled through those first periods,” Fleury said. “I talked when he came off and he said that was it.”

Masked Man thinks if the coach knew his player wasn’t feeling good why would he let him play!? Also doesn’t anybody want to know if Gus is going to be okay?  Obviously nobody has Gus’s best interest in mind. Not cool. There is nothing in this article to indicate that any of the players or coaches think Gus should explore outside help.

Here’s Masked Man’s theory:

These sports team exhibit cult like  behavior big time .. I mean this is cult behavior where when people get sick it’s like it isn’t happening like it’s not the social norm for them to get sick or seek outside help .. they don’t seek help outside their group.

.. it’s like a cult that doesn’t believe their members should seek doctors when they feel bad before, during , or after their game..

the game is like the a renegade church that doesn’t follow laws and  is out of control. This is like the group has a mentality that clings to its members in such a way that they for all practical purposes banned or used some sort of peer pressure/authority from group or leader to discourage their members from leaving the group to seek professional medical help..

…Gus’s identity has pretty much been hijacked .. he has no identity and is like a soldier expected and expecting himself to perform regardless of what is in his personal best interest (which is he should seek medical attention immediately in order to seek out why he is sick since the others currently  around him obviously can't do that).

These sports guys are conformists they conform to the group and of course are perfect specimens for contagious viruses .. tough guys exhibiting classic cult behavior

.. it’s like doctors and weakness doesn’t exist for their group .. these sports players think they are preselected for greatness and victory which is likely why they don’t even want to disclose what their illness is

.. it’s cult like tribe like behavior.. like little soldiers hellbent on winning favoritism from one another that can’t admit to weakness.

Hopefully families, typical churches, old folks homes and clubs don’t behave or treat their clients or members like these sports stars treat one another in their little cult. Typically people should seek outside help when their inner circle is failing them.

In this case the authority figure cult like leader is obviously the coach. It’s his team and he’s the expert. He’s the one saying what happened saying everything is alright.. patting Gus on the back.. I’m sure the coach is proud. No mention of doctor or diagnosis .. his team is invincible and they wouldn’t dream of seeking outside help everything is under control for the coach.


Hope you enjoyed my analysis,

The Masked behavioral analyst

P.S.
Cult-like behavior refers to a set of characteristics and tactics used by groups to exert significant influence and control over their members, often through manipulation, isolation, and the suppression of independent thought. These behaviors can be harmful, leading to emotional, psychological, and even physical harm for individuals involved.

...its pretty obvious in the article Gus can't even represent himself..He isn't even available to speak! The people who are speaking for him or on his behalf aren't talking about figuring out what is wrong with Gus or anything.. that's just like a cult man! They speak for him and they don't tell us what measures they've taken to help him because they haven't.
