I couldn't get the link to stay still so I'll just paraphrase. The cause of death for Tyler Skaggs was ruled an accidental overdoes by the medical examiner. Tyler Skaggs was the Los Angels pitcher who was found dead in his hotel room. Drugs and alcohol were found in his blood.

Yep, that Trulucks area in Southlake is a magnet for the rich and famous opting for wrong decisions.

Ha! I thought I was about to read an article about a guy getting ate by his zero turn. I wish this country’s fixation on stars would stop. What about the little girl down the street with leukemia, the wreck that killed a woman last week when a hog hit her motorcycle? Wake and remove your heads! Woe to rich and famous? I think not.

They found OxyContin, fentanyl and alcohol in his system and he choked on his vomit in his sleep. The parents said an investigator found that an Angels employee provided him with the drugs and an article I read yesterday quoted an Rangers team doctor saying that the MLB doesn’t allow team doctors to prescribe or provide opioids to players, they must be prescribed by an outside physician.

My thoughts when I read the story in the morning paper. I was an easy out for his family and he did not intend to kill himself.

Yes, they're just saying his death was accidental. He ingested the drugs intentionally but he didn't intend to kill himself. They have to classify the manner of death as either homicide, suicide, accidental, natural, or undetermined.

The will probably strike any idea of a foul play from the record. Most people probably dont want to remember like thst so theyll just let it slide.

There generally isn't foul play involved in most OD cases. 99% of them are accidental or suicide.

Maybe he was scared to break off the engagement while still alive.... bolt

Never understood people taking those kind of meds. And if you do, pass out on your stomach. Luckily can't sleep on my back.

Miserable? Doubt it. Just all the drugs and chicks he wanted, he just took it too far

Reminds me of Bon Scott of AC/DC or John Bonham of Led Zep..........

Nothing accidental about being stupid and using this stuff. He was an adult, he made the choice.

Weaker than a plate of pizz. I mean, who gets ripped the night before a game? Let his teammates and family down. No sympathy from me.
