Floridabassking352 Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 This past Sat. the No. 1 high school basketball player in Fl, Dante Anderson, died in a tragic car crash (one other passenger was killed as well, and two others were injured). He was on the varsity basketball team at my school and was named MVP last year in our championship game that we won. The report said that a car passed him and he tried to overtake it by using the median as a passing lane. When he hit the median he lost control and ran into a tree head-on at 60mph (the speed limit was 45mph). It is a terrible tragedy and he will be missed, but it's such an incredibly stupid way to die. I don't understand why anyone in their right mind would do such a thing.

Super User Sam Posted May 25, 2007 Super User Posted May 25, 2007 It is always upsetting to read or hear about a young person losing their life in an avoidable accident. Males do not mature as fast as females as part of the male brain does not mature until the mid to late 20s. Sometimes it is in the 30s when a male finally "grows up" and realizes the dangers of his actions. An entire life gone in a flash due to a dumb act. It is vey sad. Thanks for sharing with us. Our hearts go out to the families of all involved in the event. Quote
