Shoulda, coulda, woulda....who gives a shit. The guy has the right to get on an ATV if he wants. No one in this chatroom has the right to tell anyone what they should be doing and the bottom line is that he will be fine.
And by the way. Don't football players, especially, risk paralysis every time they suit up?
You are going to criticize a football player for riding an ATV?

Since you went and threw in the term idiotic, I assume it's open season with the verbage up in here now. Your post is downright stupid.
Point number 1 - you could get killed in a car wreck on your way to 7-11. Yes you could. But you're a lot more likely to get hurt on an ATV than you are on a car. That's why medical insurance premiums for motorbikes are higher than for cars.
Point number 2 - I'm not trying to tell anyone what they can or can't do. I never said there was anything contractually preventing Rabach from riding an ATV. There's nothing illegal about it. I respect that it's his decision to make. All I'm doing is criticizing him for making a poor decision. He can choose what he wants to do, but guess what, I'm free to judge him on his decisions if I want to.
Point number 3 - Football players get paid to risk paralysis every time they suit up. If they didn't suit up and risk the paralysis, they wouldn't earn the millions of dollars. If they don't hop on an ATV, they don't risk paralysis, AND they keep their million dollar salary.
Yes I'm going to criticize a football player for riding an ATV. By doing so he's jeopardizing his ability to play football in the future, which is precisely what allows him to earn millions per year.
