So weird. Apparently, they didn't know one another and this was completely random.

"Police told Black and Blue Review that alcohol was involved but was not a factor in the crash."
Huh?
"This is the best of all possible worlds."

Hope everyone is okay.
Only additional information I have seen is that Shaq Thompson crossed the center line. He claims he dropped his phone and reached down to pick it up, and that was why he crossed the line.
"There can BE only one."
Oh man! Claim that actions were taken against an impact with a deer, or dog, or even a squirrel...not over a phone drop.
I've known fellers that had to wait off to reach legal limits before. They didn't really seem straight enough then, either. There was even one dude that blew a .29 at the police station. His reply? "Damn! I could have had one more beer." Oh lawdy!
I'm glad this wasn't worse. It easily could have been. Straighten up, Shaq.
Get well Anthony.

The Charlotte Observer published this article about the accident. http://www.charlotteobserver.com/spo...e79304377.html
Wear your seat belt, folks.
Boone was super-lucky to not have been hurt worse or thrown from (through) the vehicle. You may recall Bobby Hurley was thrown from his vehicle and darn near died.
Wear your seat belt - tremendous upside, virtually no downside.
Amen brother. It might be one of the only lessons I was able to teach both my children. A person should feel weird and uncomfortable when they are NOT wearing a seat belt.
Anybody who doesn't think they need to wear theirs, I wish I could pound it into your heads with a "wiffle ball bat!!!!?
Nothing incites bodily violence quicker than a Duke fan turning in your direction and saying 'scoreboard.'
So true. I thought I had taught my kids to wear their seat belts always but my younger daughter apparently didn't really learn until her early 20's, when she was a napping and unseat belted passenger in a car that skidded off a snowy road and turned over. Miraculously, she suffered only some bruises and a bad headache--and a terrible scare (luckily no one else was hurt either). Lesson learned, the hard way.
Yikes. Wear your seatbelt. Statistically by far your best option. Keep a seat belt cutter In the car if you want to improve the odds.
Anthony's wife, Bria, reports the following today:
so glad I came from a family of women with backgrounds in healthcare. I've been nurse Bria all week lol but wouldn't have it any other way. things could've been a lot worse but I'm glad Anthony is done with his surgeries and doing okay. a long road ahead but he's strong. thanks everyone so much for all your thoughts, prayers and messages. sorry if I didn't respond to everyone but we appreciate you!
Here's the latest update on Anthony following multiple surgical procedures.
