#2 Bet he has something written in his contract addressing this kind of stuff. Probably end up giving back a lot of money.

#4 The article I just read sez Bradshaw lectured Roethlisberger in training camp and told him to "ride it when you retire."

#5 Bradshaw chewed him out, said "Ride when you retire"

#8 ...hit his head on the windshield of another car before falling to the ground.

He's very lucky he hit the windshield - probably the "softest" thing around.

#9 Roethlisberger lost most of his teeth, fractured his left sinus cavity bone, suffered a 9-inch laceration to the back of his head and a broken jaw, and severely injured both of his knees.

Done for the year, and perhaps done for good.

#10 Done for the year, and perhaps done for good.

"I felt a great distrubance in the force as if millions of Steelers fans suddenly cried out in anguish and were suddenly silent."

#13 Pretty stupid. I would have expected better from someone involved in a contact sport. Steelers fans will be making donations to reconstruct his body I bet.
