I had to share this, it’s just so sad.
These are NHL players for the Atlanta Thrashers…Dany Heatley was the overall 2nd round pick in 2000. A very talented young man with a wonderful future ahead of him…I hope that he doesn’t wind up in jail because of this accident.
Heatley charged; Snyder in coma
Officers estimated the car was traveling about 80 mph.
A season that held such promise for the Thrashers and their biggest star, Dany Heatley, has been tossed into chaos after a horrific car crash that has left teammate Dan Snyder in a coma and Heatley facing five driving-related charges. Snyder, 25, a native of Elmira, Ontario, remains in critical condition at Grady Memorial Hospital in downtown Atlanta after surgery for a depressed skull fracture suffered when he was ejected from the passenger seat of Heatley’s black 2002 Ferrari 360 Modena after it crashed at a high speed into a low, red brick lighting post late Sept. 29. The force of the collision, which took place on the opposite side of a narrow, winding road near Heatley’s home, disintegrated the back end of the luxury sports car.

How terribly sad.
Wow that is bad! I am with you I hope this does not put him in jail. If it does by the time he gets out, he will most likely be to old to go back to it. Hey your xanga versary is in 10 days. Have a great day and a wonderful tomorrow! ! ! ! Much love and many hugs ! ! ! !
Vehicles are weapons too and there are too many who forget that
