Irrelevant of his name, a biker went down from someone's failure to properly mark a wire across his path.

Get well soon Jay...

Sorry to hear about Leno's problems, but I can't stand the man. The power move he pulled on Conan told me everything I need to know about the man's character.

Whoever stretched that wire should be fined pretty heavy. If Jay was not already rich this could have made him rich.

Yeah, that's what's important.
Just because they put the tabloids near the register at the grocery store doesn't mean it's gospel.
