Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was injured in a motorcycle crash Monday morning and taken to a hospital. "He was alert and conscious," said Ernie Roman, shift commander for the Allegheny County emergency service.

Steelers Dave Lockett, outside Mercy Hospital, confirmed the accident but did not provide additional details.

The 24-year-old Roethlisberger has said in the past that he prefers not to wear a helmet when riding his motorcycle.

Calls to Roethlisberger's agent, Leigh Steinberg, were not immediately returned.
In only his second year in the NFL, Roethlisberger helped guide the Steelers to the Super Bowl championship last season.

Not much news. Not a good sign.

They're idiots for letting this guy ride at all, much less without a helmet.

Of course, he's the even bigger idiot, maybe literally now. Can you say "Duh... I still be smart just got little head injury umm, duh."

Yeah, I heard this from my sister, who's a huge Steelers fan. She's not the happiest of people right now.

What a dumbass, though. Always happens to athletes in their prime.

Why would you play a sport where you wear a helmet...then NOT wear a helmet while riding your 'cycle??

 

[bad dog]

Like the bikers say.

you have a 300$ head you buy a $300 helmet.

you have a 10$ head you buy a $10 helmet.

you have no brain in your head, no need for a helmet.

That's too bad. Big Ben's an exciting player to watch. I hope he's not hurt bad.

 

[T'Bonz]

Aw shit.

He wears the helmet during the season, it's in his contract that he must.

Pure Darwinism here. What a dumbass.

I don't think anyone has registered with that handle. Why don't you go ahead and do that, and then you could have a conversation with yerself?

In his prime, John Elway actually had provisions in his NFL contract prohibiting him from doing certain extreme activities like skiing and motocross. Had incentive and penalties and everything for being caught doing it...he was that valuable to the team.

 

[Mandi]

What an idiot. If you're not going to wear a helmet riding a bike, then you shouldn't do it while playing football.......same risk potential. Moron.
