ROOKIE QUARTERBACK: These footballs say that they are the property of an Obi-Wan Kenobi. I am thinking they belong to Toothless Ben.

BILL COWHER: Toothless Ben is just a crazy old hermit.

It's okay, Roffleburger was never sexy to begin with.

Now Tom Brady, there's one sexy man.

This forum crashed just like Ben Roethlisberger. Toothless Ben is affecting the Internet with his untapped, brain damaged psychic powers!

Bionic has been trying to push that Gentle Ben > Jordan the last 2 years

It was going to come sooner or later, but I didnt know Jordan Curse was going to physically hurt him! I thought he would just put him in a scandal!

doctors are reporting that he came up short of the windshield, in contrast to earlier reports

So he finally came up short when it came to something flying through the air eh?

I bet he wears a helmet from now on. I have never udnerstood how people can take the risk of riding a motorcycle with no helmet.

If the SB refs were at the scene the report would have been that he went thru the windshield and landed in the back seat.
 
Breaking News! Leonard Little was apparently the driver of the other car. He was seen asking detectives if this counts towards his career sack total. More as it develops.

Ignoring the tasteless jokes: what a dumb **** for not wearing a helmet. I've ridden a motorcycle in states that don't have helmet laws, but I still wore my ****ing helmet. That's just common sense people. Especially when your mother was an ER nurse that told you stories about femur bones poking through legs and brains coming out of ears from motorcycle accidents...Wear your damn helmets!

I feel evil for laughing at that.

Asked why he doesn't wear a helmet -- something he wouldn't think about doing on a football field -- Roethlisberger pointed out Pennsylvania's 35-year-old state law requiring helmets to be worn was amended two years ago.

"Obviously Pennsylvania doesn't think people need to (wear a helmet)," he said. "There's a law you've got to wear it in football."
Wow, how stupid.

:lol wow he might be the dumbest football player ever. You know somethings wrong when Terry Bradshaw has more common sense.

This is horrible, I'm not a steeler fan but I have nothing against Big Ben....Hope he is ok.



I bet Tom Brady and his satanic powers of doom were behind this.

Agreed on both parts.

Well, Gus Frerotte's head-butt against a concrete wall after scoring a TD was pretty dumb, too.

I hate all of you bastards!

When Ben recovers and wins the Superbowl and becomes the new religion in America, I will become more annoying that Nameless and FMT combined.

Sandra Ford, a Homewood writer and artist, was waiting for the bus on 10th Street about 11 am yesterday. She saw a rugged-looking white man with curly hair on his motorcycle driving along the avenue heading toward the 10th street bridge.

In the opposite direction, a gray sedan (she doesn't know the make or model) was approaching and preparing to make the turn.

"I kept waiting for the motorcyclist to slow down," she said. "He never stopped and just plowed into the car."

She said she believes Mr. Rothlisberger, who wasn't speeding, but going at a pretty good clip, never saw the car. "He had to be looking somewhere else, he just sailed across the intersection."

It was a crazy scene, said Ms. Ford, still shaken from the accident two hours after it happened. At the time of the accident, she did not know it was the Steeler's quarterback. She found out when she got home and saw the TV news.

According to Ms. Ford, Mr. Rothlisberger drove into the car and flew from his motorcycle, leaving a pretty big dent in the car, said Ms. Ford.

Afterward, Rothlisberger tumbled off the car and lay still in the street. "I thought he had died"

Hass may talk like a girl but he throws like a man unlike Alex who throws like a little bitch when he is able to even grip the ball.

11:30 am? I was driving a grey sedan.

hasselbeck also makes love like a girl, whereas alex smith gets so much premium vagina he has lost count of the women he has had.... this week!

lets make one thing clear fellas: alex smith is a future champion. you'll see a glimpse of it this year when we make the playoffs. then he will make you a true believer when he wins his first superbowl in february of 2007.
 
ck i just want you to know that *I* posted my original thoughts in the NFL thread! apparently steelers fans think gentle ben is bigger than the board.

Roethlisberger lost most of his teeth, fractured his left sinus cavity bone, suffered a nine-inch laceration to the back of his head and a broken jaw, and severely injured both of his knees when he hit the ground, police said.

A plastic surgeon has been summoned.

"He is right now in the (operating room) undergoing some surgery from injuries he received in this accident today," said Dr. Larry Jones, chief of trauma and burns at Mercy Hospital, Uptown. ... He was talking to me before he left for the OR. He's coherent. He's making sense. He knows what happened."

He apparently tried to drive at Brett Favre, but once Favre recognize who it was he just jumped to the ground by himself.
