Good Morning America weatherman Sam Champion is recovering with minor scrapes and bruises after what could have been a serious accident involving a jackknifed trailer yesterday along the LIE. Champion was headed to eastern Long Island after Friday's show when the accident happened between Exit 39, Glen Cove Road, and Exit 40, Jericho Turnpike, in Old Westbury. "I was looking down and Brian, the driver, said, 'Look out.' He hit the brakes really hard. "I remember thinking, 'This is bad. This is bad. This is really, really bad!" Champion told WABC. The accident caused hours of delays; Champion was likely headed out to the Hamptons before he flies to New Orleans to cover Hurrican Gustav.

Wasn't some other weather guy in a bad accident -- I remember seeing him do the weather from his home, leg all messed up; they got some chick to replace him as he recovers.
I wonder if the accident was weather related.
Why would that be, jenspellnogood? Oh, I get it, Champion's gay! Like all gay men he can't control his sexual urges and has to give the hired help a blow job while driving. Good thing all straight men can control their carnal desires while in a car. WTF??? Can you possibly be any more ignorantly homophobic?
Is his hair ok?
That was Bill Evans. He ruptured his foot by playing a softball game.
dr. zippy, one look at the avatar and the name will tell you exactly how much energy to waste on trolls.
zippy & virgil - douche supremes both of you. get off your high horses and take a deep breath.
Glad to see he's ok.
When I first heard about this I figured he was rear ended.
^Ha! He looks like Max Headroom after a serious car accident.
I've met Sam a few times and talked with him on the phone even more. He's a helluva nice guy, a real Kentucky gentleman.
