Giants Owner Jokes That Jerry Jones, Cowboys Will Get Ebola Virus (Video)

The good news in Dallas is that the city’s football team is surprisingly good.

The bad news is that the first case of the Ebola virus in America was discovered in the Texas city.

So when TMZ approached New York Giants co-owner Steve Tisch and asked him whether he will take any precautions against the deadly virus when his team visits to take on the Cowboys, the Giants boss told the website, “I think the Cowboys are going to get (Ebola) first, so it’s to our advantage.”

It definitely seemed like Tisch was joking, but things got a little bit weirder when the reporter “seriously” asked him the same question.

“I think the odds are greater that Jerry Jones … where am I going with this?” Tisch said.

Tisch definitely looked like he was heading into hot water before the reporter saves him by completing the sentence.

“That Jerry Jones wins the Super Bowl this year?” the reporter said.

“Yeah,” Tisch responded. “I’m going to put it on you.”
