Ben Roethlisberger Injury= No Win Total Avail. for Steelers

[2tite]

Let me start by saying this sad to hear if you are a Steelers fan or not. This guy had the most impressive rookie year in recent history.
from ESPN:

"Roethlisberger continued to ride after Winslow's accident and that angered Terry Bradshaw, who quarterbacked the Steelers to four Super Bowl victories during the 1970s.

Visiting the Steelers' training camp last summer, Bradshaw remarked: "Ride it when you retire."

That being said, did anyone get a play on the Steelers win total before it was taken down?

Didn't get the win total as the under on 10.5 was -200, but I did get Miami +5.5 for Week 1 at +100

Big Ben won't miss a snap. This is a 6 week injury tops.

[gynecologist]

They already mentioned on ESPN That the Steelers are relived that
this isn't a season threating injury. And that he won't miss a game.

 

[2tite]

Yeah, not as bad as initially thought

 

[Romanowski]

He will still miss traning camp, either way not good for Steel Town

A few minutes before your earlier post today, the win total was 10.5 U -172 and the week one was miami +5.5 even.

Glad to see you got the +5.5

I wonder if a lot of pro stars have a "no motorcycle riding" clause in their contracts?

There is (was) supposed to be a press conference this afternoon at the hospital.. not sure if that happened yet but here news from http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/06/13/sportsline/main1705286.shtml

"Doctors expect that Roethlisberger could be out of the hospital as soon as the next several days and they believe he still has a strong chance of playing for the Steelers this fall, reports Morris.

"This 24-hour period following his accident will be the key to understanding just how quickly he will be able to recover," Morris said."
