The official 'Get Well Soon Ben Rothlisberger' thread.

[devilgrrl]

As many of you already know, Pittsburgh Steeler quarterback Ben Rothlisberger was injured in a motorcycle accident earlier today. The latest news is that he's at hospital in serious but stable condition. So I decided to start a "Get Well Soon Ben" thread.

Let's send Ben Rothlisberger our best wishes for a full recovery.

"Get Well Soon Ben"

1. Fellow Pennsylvanian here

I hope he recovers fully. He is a definite winner, and it would be a shame for his career to be cut short.

2. Come on you cold hearted Steeler haters! Wish Ben a full recovery...

what's the matter with you? What, you from Cleveland or something?

3. Hear hear!

I am surprised there was nothing in his contract about no motorcycles.

Get well soon Ben!

4. I hope Ben feels well soon....

...and doesn't return until the 2007 season. :evilgrin:

8. What?

I said I hope he feels well! I don't wish any harm on him - seems like a pretty good guy. And heck, he was my pick to be the best QB in his draft.

However, I'd also like for him to sit a year or two. Just 'cuz. Nothing wrong with that! I just want to, ya know, make sure he's ALL the way healthy before he goes back out there! Yeah! No other reason... <whistling inconspicuously>

6. Steeler hating Packer fan wishing this man all the best for a speedy

recovery. You're needed back on the field Ben. Get well soon.

all things considered.

I hope the surgery is uncomplicated and he heals quickly.

9. Glad to hear he's alert

I was thinking about his life at first, but since it appears he'll be ok, I hope he can return sometime. He just has "it" and makes quarterbacking look methodical. Even when not at his best, he helps his team somehow.

11. I know nothing about football

didn't even watch the superbowl, but I wouldn't wish a head injury on anyone.

13. Yep - I'm a football fan, but would be the same way

10. Get well Ben

Your health and well being means more to me than football. It's certainly surreal hearing about this than hearing about something else.

14. Get well Ben, you big jamook.

Wear a helmet next time!

15. our family sends best wishes to Big Ben

our prayers for him and his family....

20. Get well, buy a helmet

The time it takes to properly gear up for a ride is, roughly, the same amount of time it takes a doctor to explain why you won't be walking again.
