    lol, Chaosc. Did you ever watch the show "In living color" with the Wayens brothers? The line "Never underestimate the power of the handicapt" comes to mind

    This statment isn't exactly true. I saw on Sports Center tonight that Roethlisberger has some vague wording in his contract that states that if he gets hurt doing something other than football, then that injury could result in him not getting paid. Not wearing a helmut while riding a motorcycyle, whether the law or not is just plain foolish when he has so much to lose.

    yes, ole booty boi seems to be itching for a fight and I can't figure out why. Maybe he is a failed athlete or something. He seems to have anger issues. Oh well. Onwards I go.

    Well, I admit that Roethlisberger should wear a helmet because of who is and what he means to a huge organization. But riding without a helmet isnt as bad as it sounds. Yeah if you do wreck, its bad. But wearing a helmet makes it to where you cant see everything and hear everything. Alot of people have gotten in wrecks beacause they didnt hear a car honking, or couldnt see out of there preferal(sp) vision. Also, alot of motorcycle enthusiasts are willing to take the risk if it means more of a free feeling. So its not as "crazy" as everyone makes it sound.

    hey rick...they also ran a segment of a ben interview from last year (after the winslow incident, when ben was getting criticism for riding at all) in which he talks about a conversation with cowher...cowher asked him if he rode, and if he wore a helmet...ben said he didn't wear a helmet...cowher's response: "just be careful"....doesn't seem to me that the steelers were to concerned about his off-field activities, when they should have been...there are alot of players who have specific activities (riding cycles, bungee jumping, skydiving, water skiing, other water sports, etc) that they are not allowed to participate while under contract...that was my point.

    I understand that was your point but the vagueness of the wording in his contract is enough for the Steelers to not have to pay him if his career would have ended because of this and him getting the injury in a non football activity.

    That's enough. One more time and a suspension will be coming.
