That’s what WBZ-FM Boston midday host Marc Bertrand posted on his Facebook page after getting into a crash on his way to The Patriots game Saturday. Bertrand said, “For reasons I cannot explain, I am relatively OK. I did sustain injuries but I have already been released from the hospital.” The sports talker says he hopes to be back on the air sometime this week. He hosts middays with Scott Zolak on Beasley’s 98.5 The Sports Hub in Boston.

Here are the details of the crash, according to Bertrand. “While driving down the road, another car exited a parking lot on a straight line at full speed and struck the passenger side of my Dodge Ram. I only saw the car for a split second before going for a roller coaster ride when my truck rolled and eventually came to a stop on its side. I cannot express in words how thankful I am for the Norwood Fire/EMS and Police departments. They were on the scene in what seemed like seconds. I was trapped in the truck and NFD worked quickly to free me with the jaws of life. They do amazing work like this every single day. Thank you to all my Sports Hub colleagues for covering for me, especially Chris Gasper who hosted pre-game on very short notice. Thank you to everybody who has reached out through texts, emails, tweets, etc. My phone got lost in all of this, so I’ll get back to you soon, but know that I am OK. I hope I’m talking to everybody again on the radio this week.”
