Somebody needs to teach these rich guys about uber, or hire a driver. Don't the Panther's have drivers? I'm glad he wasn't drunk but why drive yourself home from parties when your rich and your income is based on not having broken legs?

Shaq - move Uptown. Walk and Uber everywhere. More ladies there than Weddington.

I'm pretty sure he already lives uptown based on an article I read about him having a 7/11 in the bottom of the building next to him which I live in.

Probably means he was drinking the night before. 

I agree.  I didnt mean to make accusations..  I just thought the time of day raised a few more questions in my mind than if it were to happen at say 9 PM.  I am cool with Shaq either way.

lol police said alcohol was not a factor in the accident and was below the legal limit. 

 

 

UBER! Red FLAGS!!

 

STFU     it makes more sense to scream NO TEXTING AND DRIVING

The biggest concern about all of this is the time of day in which it occured..

Driving around at 7:45 AM with any alcohol in your system is a red flag.  Glad it wasnt more serious and that Shaq is fine.

He is still a kid.  He did something everyone does, so I'm not gonna put a label on him.. but you dont like to hear about this kind of stuff.  TD needs to give him a stern talking to..

If you don't understand the way alcohol is broken down I will give you a very simple explanation.

 

Breaks down at approximately .0175 g/100 g of blood per hour. 12 FL Oz. of 5% alcohol gives about a .02 BAC per drink. Thus, if you are up drinking even a 6 pack until 2 AM and you don't start until 12 AM, you will still have alcohol in your system at 7:00 AM.

Your statement implies that he was up at 7:00 AM drinking and I highly doubt this is the case. After a night of heavy drinking, many of you would be surprised to learn that alcohol likely isn't completely out of your system until 3:00 PM or later.

Sounds like a lesson learned, that could.have been worse, but isn't. 

I'm sure Thomas Davis will have a few words of advice for him.

since everyone is ok i feel safe saying i hope this is just an omen from the football gods that he'll be running over quarterbacks all season

dodged a huge bullet but there will still be a punishment. 

punishment for what? football players not allowed to drink at all? he knew his limit and was under it.

That is what most people think. "Hey, i'll go to bed for a couple of hours and all the alcohol will leave my body by evaporation."

No....sleep does not help, coffee does not help, showers do not help. Getting on a treadmill and chugging water while you run will help.

True dedication on Shaq's part. Even off the field he is trying to take out quarterbacks.
