Don't Forget Chance Veazey Like We Did

We didn't mean to ignore Chance Veazey since his accident, but we have.  Veazey was our new starting second baseman for the upcoming season until a terrible auto/scooter accident has left him paralyzed.  That type of injury not only obviously ends Chance's promising baseball career, but also means he and his family have a very long and expensive road ahead of them to get Chance back to something like a normal life.  He is currently recovering at the Shepherd Center in Atlanta.  You'll recall that the football team wore a sticker on their helmets last weekend in Veazey's honor.

I love dogs, especially ones that wear a red jersey, but let's not lose perspective.  Before you go to buy a new black polo for Uga VII Saturday, don't forget to help Chance Veazey's recovery.  You can send money or simply send Chance a few words of encouragement (email address required for some reason).  It all counts.

Get well, Chance, from all of us at the Georgia Sports Blog.
