Bloody fool ...

"Ride it when you retire. That's the way I feel. Those things are dangerous."

Of all people, Terry Bradshaw actually offered up good advice.

:shock: :mrgreen:

We'd better watch the skies, if Bradshaw is handing out good advice, the world isn't much longer for this universe.

In my joking earlier, I forgot to say that I do hope that he fully recovers, although what I heard on tv while typing this kinda makes me question those chances. But here's hoping Ben.

In addition to a broken jaw, a broken left sinus cavity, a 9-inch laceration to the back of the head, and many lost teeth, Roethlisberger also suffered severe knee injuries, according to the Pittsburghchannel.com.

Ouch ... :tea:

P.S.: Through many wheelchair tennis tournaments, that I was either organizing or just visiting, I happened to meet many people with severe spine injuries. About 90% of them were victims of motorcycle accidents! Too fast, drunken car drivers, bad luck ... you simply don't have enough safety features around you. At least wear a helmet, please.

So not only is Big Dumb Ben an idiot for riding a motorcycle while not wearing a helmet, he's a moron for riding a motorcycle while not wearing a helmit on an expired learner's permit.

Idiot!
