Parsons' Accident

[Spud2nique]

Get well Chandler. Hoping for a speedy recovery. Basketball is still only a game.

I mean come on, Chandler. The guy has paid advertisements during every Hawks broadcast on FS Southeast and you choose M&M's?

But seriously, every time this guy pops up on the telly, I say to myself, "Ohp, there's the weasel lawyer".

Did you know that's not really his arm?  Yeah I was surprised.

He needs to add a second verse:  One fall, give me a call.

Slip 'n fall, we'll get you a haul.

Call the Strong Arm if you experience harm.

 GASP!!! I was absolutely floored by this revelation. I thought for sure that string-bean weasel must've been spending his midnights on PornHub or had contacted JC's dealer to get an arm like that, but nope. Just well wisher using a pseudo-arm hoping that you contact him before taking that small check that the insurance company HOPES you take.

Can ya tell I despise lawyers?

I kind of guessed right that the accident was on North Druid Hills Road, the drag that the Hawks/Emory facility spits out onto. But it's really across the Interstate, maybe a couple miles west, at the intersection of NDH and the street we can't seem to steer away from (Bembry/Dennis), Buford Highway.

The image from the ESPN article, with the Buford Hwy streetscape and the new Children's Healthcare building in the distance, makes the location pretty obvious to us local yokels. (Are the doors on Rollses supposed to open that way?) The metal pole was daunting enough, but what could have been worse as a collision is the huge stone embankment (you can't see it) that holds up the Red Roof Inn parking lot just on the other side of the sidewalk. This crash is bad, and yet it still could have been worse.

I feel for Chandler but I'm laughing too hard at all this stuff.

"When I was hurt and missed work, Morgan & Morgan got me $20,000! Now I'll have peace of mind once my $94 million contract expires. Thanks, Morgan & Morgan!"

[Sothron]

All jokes aside I hope Parsons gets better and the drunk bastard that hit him goes to jail. Drunk driving is a serious issue in our country and kills more people than most folks realize.

That's what I was kinda getting at.  Like, you and I could hire them dudes.  What's in this for Parsons?  I mean, other than getting substandard legal representation?

Morgan and Morgan is a big time firm.  Not like your typical TV lawyers.

[High5]

Yes, I don't mean to make light of Parsons' injuries. I was just surprised when I read that he was being represented by a law firm with a local TV commercial. But I do wish him a full recovery.

Damn, took out a Rolls. There goes $500k. Every one of those cars are built from the ground up by same three people; Rolls Royce does not use an assembly line which is surprising since they're owned by BMW these days. And yes, that's how suicide doors open. Beautiful cars that no expense is spared on.
