That's how I read it too. Of course noone deserves an injury, well almost noone.
Exercising common sense and not being stupid to begin with go a long way in preventing them.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I am still dissappointed he didn't take better measures to protect himself.
He will be missed on the field for whatever portion of the season he misses. (I am pretty well convinced he will be out for at least September).
Sorry
I apologize for my last post - as pointed out I missed the point of the analogy.
While no-one deserves ill will, if you pointedly, deliberately refrain from using safety equipment you deserve part of the blame for any injuries caused by it's absence. Maybe most of the blame.
Regarding the 150 pounders and wood floor, I thought this guy was a basketball player at first. I don't follow the ball sports too much.

Please always wear a helmet while riding a motorcycle, even a bicycle (regardless of whether it is the law or not).
Re: Sorry

I happen to know the OMFS who operated on Christopher Reeve. :wink: And he really was Superman because he removed the sitiches and intermaxillary fixation himself.

Ben Roethlisberger was in a motorcycle accident this morning about an hour and a half ago. He was going straight thru a greenlight when a woman made a left turn illegally and Ben struck her front fender and hit the windshield with his head, then into the ground head first. No helmet.
He was taken to Mercy in Pittsburgh, I'm watching this live... will say more if there is more live, that isn't online yet.

There's a reason we in first response call them Donorcycles. Especially for the morons that insist on riding without a helmet.

Hope he's ok...but yeah, I don't see his logic about no wearing a helmet. I don't think I'd even ride without full leather, armor, etc. It's just too damn dangerous out there for bike riders.
Broken Jaw. That does not sound fun.
NSXLuvr said:One other thing. IIRC in Texas, It is illegal to ride a bicycle without a helmet yet its perfectly legal to ride a motorcyle without a helmet.
Did she got sued?

I'll have to agree. Gotta wear a lid. Great fb player, HORRIBLE common sense.
I feel bad that he got hurt cause someone cut him off and he got hurt in general, but at the same time I don't because it should have been common sense. We'll just call it...... Community Service Message. "Dont be an idiot like me, wear a helmet, it's the LAW"

Kicking a man when he is down?
Dude; I think your car is very nice, but you are a total moron.
Your going to come into a thread and call a motorcycle accident "payback" for a questionable football call?
If pay-back is such a bitch, I wonder what karma has in store for you...

Seven hours of surgery to fix his face
Sometimes guys just think with their balls and not with their brains

What gets me is that his reason for not wearing a helmet is "there's no law to wear a helmet". Would he drive drunk if there was no law restricting that? I bet everyone would feel okay calling him a moron or an idiot if the NFL changed their rules to not require a helmet on the field and he chose not to use one then got whacked.
