Long road back

It was good to see that Ben Roethlisberger apparently suffered no long-term damage in his motorcycle accident earlier this week.

Roethlisberger's statement through the Steelers said that he has learned his lesson and if he ever rides a motorcycle again, he will do so while wearing a helmet.

Roethlisberger is one of the lucky ones.

His injuries are severe, make no mistake about that. But they aren't life or career-threatening. Heck, he likely won't even miss any regular season games because of it.

He's a lucky man indeed.
