It's just a joke, a very mild joke really.

---

I actually thought it was funny then I gathered more info on the Ebola death toll --- In 2014 alone, 7,470 people have been identified with Ebola and 3,431 people have died from it.  

 

I personally hate the PC police but I think this one is borderline.

And it was cleaner when he returned it to them!

LOL!!! You nearly made me choke on my dinner!!!

What in the Wide Wide World of Sports is agoin' on here???

Not Jaxon's most PC moment and it very well could lead to an hour or two of sensitivity training.  That said, it was just a spontaneous attempt to dig at all of those annoying yellow rags being waved around the stadium.  It worked, I laughed (guess that makes me an insensitive [BLEEP]).  I'm pretty sure nothing like that will happen again.

I laughed pretty good..

---

If anything, Towelgate (as it has been dubbed) provided more publicity to the Ebola fight. Not that Jaxson deserves a medal, but come on, people… Let's be reasonable here. 

 

I think Lamping's strong response was a little unwarranted and hung Jaxson out to dry a bit.

What if it said "Towels carry smallpox"?

Bad taste and not very funny.  I'm not easily offended unlike the rest of the agenda crowd we now have in this country.  How upside down that people get offended by words and happily # tag all day long but never do anything real or take action.

 

A spokesperson actually suggested shutting down travel from a hot zone would be politically incorrect. Thanks for flushing my tax dollars down the drain on incompetence.

 

Edit:

Removed the reference that would probably up my warning count.

Fans deserve better. Thanks for all the good times too many are in the past.

More people die from falling.

 

Far more. We must ban all falling jokes.

He told the truth, no?

---

It's iffy. Ebola is a real problem overseas right now and it's very serious, so with that I can see how it could be considered bad PR.

 

On the other hand I totally get and applaud the joke he was making about those darn towels. 

---

No if you #### and Twitter enough you are an activist and changing the world.  You must bow to the pressure of the word mafia.  Or else they will #JagHate #Boycott #Hash ###Hash you to they bludgeon you and your team.

We already had a thread on this

The PC police not with standing, would he have made a similar joke about the AIDS virus? That virus is killing 15,000 per year in the USA.

I will say this about steeler fans.  Their women are more manly than male colts fans.

So those weren't towels? Ugh.

I'm not offended in the least bit.

 

Was it funny?  Not really in my opinion.  I don't find disease of any kind a joking matter, especially a deadly disease.

 

In my opinion it was just poor taste.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.

Toxoplasmosis would have been more applicable .

Doesn't matter. Here we are defending our mascot. Meanwhile the team, especially offense, played like wet towels.

He was sent to a lovely farm with a wonderful family and can run and chase chickens all he wants!!

 

Real jaguars do not live on farms or eat chickens.
