was it an addiction or a one time thing? How often does the MLB test and does the test miss stuff like that? How long does it stay in your system? #notacokeheadsoidontknowthesethings

quote:Exactly. You know if your friend has been drinking and doing coke, and from what we know from those texts released, the one friend knew how Jose was and was warned and asked to not go/be careful, adn he still chose to go. Very sad, very horrible decisions by Jose. But the friends were responsible for deciding to go along with a guy they knew was making horrible decisions as well.
It's on those guys for riding with him, too. I never drink and drive, but I have let drunks drive me a million times. That's on me if I die with my friends mario karting me around.
Also, for anyone going hard and bashing Fernandez, I'm sure not a single one of you have ever drank and drive with someone else in your car, like not even once. Ok, sure thing.

Since being an adult, especially since having children, I have not ever driven while loaded on alcohol and coke. And especially havent driven a car at about 125 mpoh while doing so(which is about the equivalent to the speed he was doing on a boat at night)
So no, not everyone has made egregious bad shitty decisions.
Sounds like a pretty bad shitty decision you should be judged for.

Unfortunate 2 other men lost their lives because of this idiot
They CHOSE to put their lives in danger knowing their friend was making a really poor decision to drive a boat in that condition...something those same friends had done before as well. And they chose to do it again that night.

Some of you are so dense and simple minded, it's hard to see how you function as adults. Not everything is binary, black and white. You can recognize he is at fault and made a terrible decision that cost people their lives, while still recognizing the tragedy that is a talented young man with the world at his fingers dying. It doesn't have to be an either/or between mourning the loss and condemning the wreckless behavior.
It's just sad all around.

It was the alcohol that likely caused him to crash, not cocaine. Coke is nothing compared to alcohol as far as the influence it has on your driving

Which is wide open throttle in a Sea Vee 320z (the boat he was driving). So, WOT at night while drunk and high. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

not sure if already answered but have toxicology reports come back on the passengers in the boat?

Family shouldn't get a dime from the Marlins because it was his fault.

I have never once in my life been drunk and drove, especially in the manor in which fernandez did. I don't think m y'all realize just how fricking reckless he was being
This isn't a scenario where a guy was over the legal limit, and got in a normal wreck that didn't have something to do with his impairment
He was driving full throttle at night while loaded

he was absolutely reckless and had he lived would and sould have been prosecuted for manslaughter. however, if everyone in the boat was also loaded, I have a hard time seeing the justification of a lawsuit against the Marlins and/or Fernandez's estate. That's contributory negligence

Yep. Go look at the Endymion crash thread. People were praying the driver would die

Do you have any brothers, sisters, best friends? Have they all never drank and drove, and if they did, would you just shun them and think they were terrible for doing so?
quote:YOu're trying to pace degrees of things, but i you go back to your original process vs results premise, if someone is just drinking at .14 and they wreck and kill some father and his kid, does it matter? Does that make them less worse than Jose Fernandez?
