I don't really care if you wear a motorcycle helmet or not, dude.
A newly-contrite Ben Roethlisberger apologized to the Pittsburgh Steelers, fans and his family on Thursday, saying he was fortunate to be alive and pledging to wear a helmet if he ever again rides a motorcycle.You know what? Shut up.
Just. Shut. Up.
What an idiot!
[crickets]
OK, that was harsh. I should remind myself that guys like Roethlisberger do perform a public service: they are organ donors on wheels.
And besides, eventually all motorcyclists will be smart enough to wear helmets because the stupid ones will have culled themselves out of the gene pool.

Heh. 160HP sportbike + urban traffic + no helmet = Darwin Award. We call them “squids”. No helmets, shorts, sneakers, wheelies in traffic, lane-splitting at high speed.
We gratefully accept the coverts, though – the survivors.

"converts"
"coverts" rig their license plates to swing up out of view at "appropriate" moments ;-)
