could have been the best and worst year of the man's life

Steeler's Quarterback injured in motorcycle accident
news from Bloomberg

from what it sounds he is seriously injured
while also being seriously lucky

no helmet?
what is this guy thinking?

I wish him luck
I said a prayer
hopefully he will learn from this
maybe everyone will learn from this

this could have been an ugly combination of the best and worst year of his life
winning the Super Bowl and dying a few months later
that would have to go in the record books along with the passing of Len Bias

this accident gives me chills
not because this is some super hero athlete
no... because of the worst case scenarios that could so easily be avoided if we just chilled a bit behind the wheel
I am not saying that either the car driver or the motorcyclist was in the wrong
just saying that if we just slowed down a bit
we would all be able to live with less regret

this man was very lucky not to suffer greater injuries due to the helmetlessness of it all

Good Luck Big Ben!
I am certain that you have the best men in Pittsburgh trying to stitch you up
along with every person in the Pittsburgh area praying for you... even the atheists
