Sergio Kindle drives his car into an apartment

Here's the initial report from the Statesman.

Police are looking for a driver who crashed into a West Campus apartment early Wednesday. There were no injuries.

Witnesses saw several people get out of a car that crashed into an apartment at 2704 Rio Grande St., police Cpl. Scott Perry said today.

The people who got out of the car pushed it out of the apartment, down the street and then abandoned it a short distance later, Perry said.

Chip Brown from Orangebloods has gotten the scoop from Kindle's lawyer, Brian Roark. According to Roark, Kindle was texting when he lost control. Brown does not say if Roark used air quotes or not.


Actual text?

The car is registered under Kindle's father's name, Johnny Walker. I am not making that up. And Kindle was convicted of DWI a couple of years ago.

As drunk driving would require a suspension and possibly even force Kindle off of the team, I choose to believe that this student-athlete was texting his math tutor and that the apartment knowingly and willingly leapt at Mr Kindle’s car.

…and by “early Wednesday” you mean 2AM. Yeah, prolly no reason to think there was any alcohol involved.

Sounds like a few felonies adding up here, and the coverup is probably the worst of it.

Weak sauce. No one’s in a coma, no one was arrested for cocaine use, no bitches were kicked, no doors were kicked down, no one had a loaded 9mm on their lap with a pound of weed in the car…

Has Will Muschamp completely pussified this team?

Sergio was texting his dad. It was the letter that Johnny Walker read.

Smartest move ever. Try proving in court who was driving.

by pasotex on Jun 26, 2009 11:23 PM CDT reply actions  

Got to give the guy credit, since he drove the car away there is no way anyone can prove he was drinking.

His last DWI cost him 3 games, why do I get the feeling he won’t be missing the 3rd game of the year this time?

They should have said he was reading his Kindle.

I’d alter that to say he should be suspended for every game that doesn’t involve an opponent from the state of Oklahoma.

Pure guess here, but I think Mack suspends him for one game for being a stupid fuck. Maybe two games, but I don’t think he can get away with no game suspension.

Props to Kindle and his friends for pushing the car out of the apartment and back down the street.

Most folks would have just left it there for the owners to clean up. Nice to see kids with manners these days!

/facepalm

Suspension?

Sergio just assured himself an A+ for his summer school physics project.
 
He should be commended for going one step further than the assignment called for.

He treats his homework with the same reckless abandon as his defensive pursuits. This is the kind of student athlete we want on the 40 acres.

So, has Mack suspended Kindle for your season opener against Bodacious Bob’s Burger Barn All-Stars?

If he’s in Norman he doesn’t need his father’s car.

I first cringed at this report, but then blowU fan showed up and put it in perspective. Thanks, McBee!

by BEHorn on Jun 27, 2009 11:05 AM CDT reply actions  

Agreed.

Thank goodness Kindle just wrecked an empty apartment. He could have been gallivanting around with kidnapped coeds in his car while threatening to kill them with power-tools or other sharp instruments.

THAT would have been something to get worried over.

Please tell Mr. Kindle that his Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwiches are waiting at the OTHER drive through window.

McBee doesn’t really ‘get’ irony but what do you expect from somebody who names himself shit?

Trips, if he’s in Norman, he doesn’t need a car at all. We’ve got an armada of limousines filled with morally loose women from 6th Street in Austin (and you know there’s plenty) and Osage County meth.

In Oklahoma, “irony” is what your sistermother does after pulling the laundry down from the trailer park clothesline.

Everyone of you is probably breathing a big sigh of relief since nothing is likely to come of this incident.

Is Jamarkus McFarland aware of this?

You guys are losing your touch.

I’ve been waiting all day for tributes to Kindle’s Christianity and his love of children.

2007 was a good year on the blotter to laugh at you guys.

Props to Sergio for getting 09 off to such a rolling start.

HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Ripley, how do you think we REALLY got McFarland to Norman? Do you really think that he and his mom were wowed by Jackie Shipp and the possibility of McFarland having a respectable African-American role model coaching him? What a load of shit.

Thayer got word to us of what he was getting from UT, and we obviously had to one up it. You throw lines of cocaine and gorgeous Texas women at him. We do the same. In a fucking limo. What now, bitches?

A reflective moment.

It occurred to me that Sergio Kindle is probably about the worst UT has to offer.

OU just enrolled a guy who was already charged with kidnapping and assaulting his ex-girlfriend. He just got on campus.

I think the only reason OU players don’t get into a lot more trouble is because Norman has that whole “boring” thing going for it.

Let he who is without sin (texting while hiiiiigh and driving, causing a vehicle to careen into a potentially not vacant apartment bedroom) cast the first stoner.

and remember, sergio is probably bigger than you are, so i would cast, and run. which is, oddly enough, similar to what Sergio did…
