I think it's kind of disgusting how more people are concerned about whether or not he can throw a damn ball from now on as opposed to how he is doing as a person.

why are you so surprised the only reason people give a fuck about him or any athlete in the first place is because he can do what he does. I'm sure hundreds of people were injured in accidents today alone but they won't get so much as a sentence in the newspaper. The only reason you even heard about the accident is because he can throw a football period.

I'm not surprised. But, it disgusts me how we treat these athletes like they are our horses or something. The second they slip up we are ready to take them out back and put a bullet in their heads it seems.

That's only when they throw an interception on the final drive of the game. Otherwise, we just pelt them with rotten tomatoes. RR

get your facts straight first, notice the impact on the side of the car and the front of the bike.
most people are working on monday morning at 10am. Not driving fancy motorcycles around the city.
He broadsided a car, he drove into the side, he slammed his face on the hood. I blame him, he drove into the side of some woman's car, to top it off, he's fucking stupid too for not wearing a helmet. Maybe he needs training wheels or better, a police escort around the city so he doesn't crash into us normal folks.
And yet you show the back of the bike and a quartering away view of the car.. lol

i dunno
but the Vet was a battery throwing venue, for sure
when Ronde Barber returned that pick for a touchdown in the NFC Championship game when the Bucs won the Super Bowl, you can see batteries landing behind him

Well, I guess they are pretty easy to accurately throw a good distance, so that is probably why batteries.

You get your facts straight, Nashbar. The dumb cunt driving the car made a left turn directly in front of him and failed to yield. "Martha Fleishman, 62, of Squirrel Hill, was driving the car west on Second Avenue and turning left onto the 10th Street Bridge when Roethlisberger's Suzuki Hayabusa, which was heading east on Second Avenue, struck the car.
A witness said Roethlisberger didn't appear to be speeding in the 35 mph zone, and Fleishman had slowed to make the turn. Both drivers had a green light, the witness said. " http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/s_457685.html
He was an accident waiting to happen, as are all bikers. To ride without a helmet is even dumber but he was not at fault in the accident. And what's your problem with fancy bikes and having a non 9-5 job?

It should also be noted that 80% of auto fatalities are due to head injuries, but only 15% of motorcycle fatalities are due to head injuries, yet nobody calls car drivers stupid for not wearing helmets. That seems a bit odd. In a car accident, you're thrown forward into the windshield head first, seat belt or not. The major cause of motorcycle fatalities is internal injuries. The rider is thrown into the handlebars and his torso wraps around them, destroying internal organs.
If anything, helmet laws should apply to cars, not motorcycles. I fault big Ben more for riding a silly girly man jap bike than for not wearing a lid. RR

How fucked up is this...I met and talked to the guy who took that picture. He is a friend of a friend and he lives near where the bike and the car were taken. He ran down, took pictures, and sent them to the local news programs.
