I can totally understand the concept of helmet-wearing being a freedom issue. I do not argue that you should not have the choice... because, you know me, I'm all about choices. ;-)

I've already taken this to THFGT, but since you don't subscribe to THFGT, I'll say this and then leave it alone. I am FORCED to wear a helmet in TN, but look forward to the opportunities to ride down to Florida or over to SC in order to put the helmet away. Many would agree that after many years of abuse, my brain has depreciated to the point of being almost worthless, but IMHO, it's NOT a safety issue, but rather a FREEDOM issue. I want the CHOICE. That's all. My decision (right or wrong) does NOT infringe on YOUR rights at all. Oh, and BTW, I have three perfectly good brain cells left, so there! ;-) Randy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cecilia" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, September 30, 2009 11:00:19 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] [SUN]: "The Chalkboard" -- Should Tebow wear a helmet on his scooter? As my ex-boyfriend said to me after I objected to the amount of money he paid for my custom helmet, "It just depends on how much you think your brain is worth." Ahem... I hear you ride helmetless, Randy. ::snicker:: Cee ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, September 30, 2009 8:14 PM Subject: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] [SUN]: "The Chalkboard" -- Should Tebow wear a helmet on his scooter?

Before getting on a scooter - Tebow should have to put on full football protection (including football helmet and then be bubble wrapped or put on one of those sumo wrestling outfits. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [gatornews] [SUN]: "The Chalkboard" -- Should Tebow wear a helmet on his scooter? From: Shane Ford <[email protected]> Date: Wed, September 30, 2009 1:42 pm To: [email protected] September 30th, 2009 10:55am Should Tebow wear a helmet on his scooter? by Nathan Crabbe (Gainesville SUN) The University of Florida’s campaign to encourage students to wear helmets on scooters comes at an interesting time. UF’s most famous student, Gator quarterback Tim Tebow, has been photographed on campus riding his scooter without a helmet. As he recovers from a concussion, one wonders if he’ll change his ways. The safety campaign kicks off Thursday at 6 p.m. with a performance by Gainesville musician Chris McCarty at the Reitz Union Amphitheater. The Shands trauma unit will have an information booth there and scooter helmets will be raffled off. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
