The real dangers of hot piss
Definitely an advantage for the eagles, they’re used to breathing noxious clouds of toxicity.
The air quality looks fine checking it today. Fearmongering.
I know I’m probably in the minority here, but I can’t stand these out of country games. Just let these dudes play their shit at home or on the road. It’s a logistical nightmare.
This is actually a pretty big issue. I live in Denver and we get really bad wildfire air every year and this year’s was particularly brutal. Guys were getting lightheaded just playing softball and I consider myself a pretty okay athlete for 34 and I was struggling to get full breaths after running out a double. Going to probably have some oxygen masks on the sideline just to get some good air in throughout the game.
As a person going to the game, you guys think I’d need to wear a mask or something?
Brazil … nuts!
Shouldve sent the Broncos instead, they deal with this constantly. Take it from me living in Denver, poor air quality sucks. All summer I rode my bike with a mask and I still felt like my lungs were as on fire as the surrounding mountains.
Knew this would happen. Hope the fires get dealt with but this is Mexico City all over again. Stop scheduling games in places you know nothing about, Rog.
Gotta love International games
AJ brown is saying that the players are being recommended to not walk around the city when there either for fear of violence
Brazil is not remotely safe enough to have these NFL players traveling to and playing a game at
There are two air quality monitors to keep an eye on –
Edit – I live in Sao Paulo – the wildfire smoke was no joke last Friday – made the sunset hazy and you could smell it in the air. This week has been a bit cooler which from what I’ve read has made it a little better for containment of the fires.
This is why you don’t have games in third world shit holes.

49ers play in these conditions almost weekly
