Chicago Cubs: Former skipper Mike Quade involved in car accident

Former Chicago Cubs manager Mike Quade was involved in a serious multi-car accident in Florida Saturday, but managed to escape serious injury – something even he can’t believe.

“I remember it was the most godawful sound I ever heard,” Quade told the Star-Tribune. “The [air]bags exploded, all that. I’m still shook up. We can’t believe we’re not dead.”

According to reports, a vehicle traveling at nearly 50 mph rammed into Quade’s SUV. His vehicle was totaled and at least four others sustained damage. The collision set off a ‘chain reaction,’ per the Star-Tribune, but no one suffered serious injuries in the incident.
