I don't know how much news this is making nationally but because Cubs VS Sox was last weekend (and again this weekend) it's pretty much been ignored despite the fact that it's a much bigger story.
Last thursday night Jay Williams (former College player of the year for duke, #2 pick in the draft last year after Yao Ming) Jay Williams was riding his motorcycle (something that is forbidden under the terms of the CBA) on the northwest side of chicago when he crashed. He has severe injuries to his left leg and pelvis. There is no official word from the Bulls or Jay's doctors but everything that I've heard on sports radio and in the papers says that Jay's career is pretty much done.
Generally, my stance with people is dumbass until proven otherwise (that goes for just about everyone.) With that stance I generally blame people for the things that they inflict upon themselves but no matter how hard I try I can't help but feel very saddened by this whole incident. I hope he'll someday be able to lead a farily normal life as far as walking and, hell, even standing is concerned.
