Still no word from the hospital on Dave Palone. Mike Wilder reportedly broke a rib or arm.

Mike has a sprained wrist and bruised ribs. Not as bad as originally thought! Still have not heard about Dave Palone.

Hope Dave is OK.  Looks like he took a beating while down.

Just talked to Bill Zendt. He said they are awaiting the results from an MRI of Palone's neck and shoulders. He was life-flighted because his head hit the ground so hard they feared brain trauma. The tests on the brain came back ok, but he is in a lot of pain from his neck and shoulder region.

Thank you sir, but the credit goes to Pezz, who informed me both that this site was down and of the accident, both while I was grocery shopping.

Do you now have to subscribe to youtube to view? I can't get anything to come up. Having been in a few horse wrecks I know how bad they can be. Hope everyone is OK.
