Prayers up for LB Harvey Langi & family: injured in auto accident

[long distance]

All the reports I've seen so far have used the non-specific terms, "head and neck" or "back" to describe Harvey's injuries, while the descriptions for Cassidy's injuries have been more specific.

I hadn't read anything about a "knee" injury for Harvey. Where did you see that?

They got a call from 1 Patriot Pl detailing their injury policy
Its “back“ on injury report.

Of course at the moment football is secondary..

Appears to be an effort to bring some sort of justice to the person who hit the Lang's...

Any word on the driver being under the influence, texting , etc. ?

Just heard on the news that Langi is most likely out for the year ...

hopefully Cassie and Harvey get 100% health return.

And here we have McClellins spot once Langi is on NFI.

Not meaning to sound pessimistic, but I didn't think there was much question on that front. He can barely walk from what we've seen on the video. I'm guessing that there's a chance that he may not see the field again, period. Who knows if he'll be able to heal enough to get back the kind of speed that made him a fringe ST player to begin with? Head, neck, back issues can be limiting. I'm just glad that they aren't life threatening.

Yeah I mean how many days before he could even walk to see his wife -

Might need to use it to bring up a CB for this weekend.

More great news on this victory Sunday!

Apparently the guy had a pharmacy in his car, and an open container, and yet, was somehow uninjured and unarrested.

I hope the Langi's hire the best ambulance chasing lawyer and take this guy for everything! He almost killed 4 people!

Man faces charges in accident that injured Patriots rookie and his wife

Ugh. Irresponsible, inconsiderate a-hole. Lock him up!

From the Boston Herald:

"Foxboro police say Kevin M. Conroy, 25, of Millis was behind the wheel of the Jeep, and yesterday said Conroy faces charges including possession of a Class E substance, negligent operation of a motor vehicle, a marked lane violation, and possession of an open container of alcohol.

Conroy had unknown dosages of Gabapentin, Quetipine, and Baclofen on him at the time of the crash, according to Foxboro police Chief William Baker."

Gabapetin is an anti-seizure med that's often prescribed for bi-polar disorder (off-label).
Quetiapine (Seroquel) is an antipsychotic used to treat bi-polar disorder.
Baclofen (Lioresal) is used to treat spasticity and also acts as a muscle relaxant.

All three have a sedative effect. Mixing them with alcohol is probably not the most brilliant idea.

If hes taking those drugs because he has legit medical conditions then I'm Batman.

Define "legit medical conditions". We live in a way overmedicated society and there are certainly doctors who will prescribe such ****tails rather carelessly for legitimately-diagnosed symptoms.

My suspicion is he was getting them from a sketchy source and not to treat the actual medical conditions you mention.

Is the sketchy a doctor or a pharmacist? Maybe....

They don't charge people with prescriptions for possession of drugs, so I would say, no they were not prescribed by a doctor.

Although, who would steal bi-polar drugs?

The type of criminal who's willing (desperate enough) to break in to any vulnerable home will often take every prescription pill bottle they find, regardless whether or not they know wft it is, and then resell them to unsuspecting rubes as a great way to get a buzz. Could have been something like that.

OTOH, except maybe for the Seroquel, those are relatively obscure meds to "the street" and that wouldn't be particularly useful for getting a buzz. Also, that specific ****tail sounds more like a set of prescriptions from one source. They could even have been legitimately prescribed to treat a legitimate condition, but 25-year-olds tend to think they're bullet-proof and often ignore the warnings that come with medications, such as "don't mix with alcohol" and "don't operate motor vehicles or heavy machinery" .

Maybe. Reading so much about opioids these days as I have teenagers....

I read that kids and those addicted will mix on purpose.

I definitely understand that.

Not that it would be impossible, but it would be kinda weird for a kid or typical addict to hit on that specific combo.
