Big Ben Goes down

[Archer 900RR]

Just heard on the news that Ben whom is from Findlay .. yeah.. anyways was struck by a car while riding his Busa... serious condition, hurt his knees, broke his jaw, and hurt his neck. He wasnt wearing a helmet. But the doctors say he'll heal within 7 weeks, and will be able to play in the camp soon.

I thought that it looked like a busa.
A couple of years ago when it came out that he was riding, he did that piece about PA's repeal of the helmet law. He talked about not wearing a helment.
I remember how hard it was for me to come back from my stroke. He was supposed to have a brain injury. he also was supposed to have had brain surgury.
I wish him the best luck espeically on "just" getting healthy again.

I am sure it goes without saying that we all wish him well and a full recovery. Hate to hear that a brotha got hit

What are we talking about?

I was hoping someone else would ask... I have no idea who this "Big Ben" is either. Unless that giant clock in England rides a Busa.

Big Ben is the Pittsburg steelers quaterback. He is from Findlay Ohio and is not a very nice person to his fans atleast. once he went pro from the University of Miami of Ohio his head grew thinking he was untouchable. Here in Ohio there isnt a helmet law. he rode here without a helmet. His family always told him to wear one. He never listened. Now he may loose money or his NFL Contract. and if he looses his contract he has to pay back his bonus which was millions... He was also MVP Rookie of the year! wont he pitts steelers a superbowl?

Good player as long as he doesnt run the ball. I dont think he'll be playing much longer if at all... and he'll return back to Findlay Ohio.

Hahahaha. Full face helmet would have been nice. But then you don't get to have bugs and rocks and **** pelting you in the face while you pose for everyone else. Oh well.

Keep on squidin', oh squidly one.

No helmet, No pity.

[supermotardrider]

No licence either:mad:

Just askin' for it...

[RRanger]

No license. No helmet. When interviewed and asked about his style, he replied that he only rides with groups, and only moderately cruises on his Harley. I don't know how that morphed to morning time runs on a Busa'. Doubt he'll lose any Bonus $, but compared to other QB's, Big Ben's going to need that insurance check just in case. His head can't be too big--not any more at least-- Eli Manning's bonus is larger than Ben's entire contract. And Ben brought the hardware.... Hope's alright....

[bikerdave]

Yea, hope he's ok weather he gets back on the field or not.
As to helmet and license, why should a 24 yr. pro quarter back be any different from the "Govenator" of the state of california?:D

I don't know the story about Arnold and motorcycles...


...But I'll tell you why the Governator's case should be different, regardless of what it was. It's because the ground is afraid to and/or incapable of hurting the mighty Arnold. I saw him get hit by a semi truck once. He just got up, shook it off, and took the truck from those pansies driving it and continued his pursuit of some lowlife deviants throwing pipe bombs out of a pickup truck. Only two things hurt motorcyclists: the ground and other, larger vehicles. Since the ground trembles in fear of Arnold (the reason why California has so many earthquakes, until Arnold was elected Governator and told the ground to quit it in a firm voice) and he can even be run down by a SEMI without injury, I don't think Arnold should need protective gear.

Shoot. Jawhn's alcohol sponsorship of Ron seems to have begun. What do I owe you, Rob? :D

Heh, heh.

Nothing. But apparently you owe some guy Ron some booze. :confused:

[Blademan]

Last night on 2 Wheel Tuesday Greggie White offered Ben a free Arai helmet. Now why can't we get that ?? Ben could buy six lids with the money in his pocket . . . and he gets a free one ?!?!?!?

D'oh!

Look at that... The b and n keys are right next to each other! Who'da thunk it? :D :rolleyes:

Whoopsy. I had had some wine when I wrote that...

End threadjack. Continue on with that quarterback dumbass conversation...

After reading the subject of this post, I expected to hear big Ben was an aspiring porn star or something.... :eek:
