November 11, 2020 - Ben's Veteran's Day Salute325 viewsAnd Logan Clarke:
“Long Time #7 Fanâ€
I’m finally writing to this website after many years of watching the Steelers and my childhood hero, Ben Roethlisberger. I graduated from Mercer High School in 2015, which is about an hour north of the city. At Gannon University in Erie, I played QB/WR for four years (barely got on the field, but I love the game) and commissioned as an Engineer Officer in 2019 through the Army ROTC program. After getting stationed at Fort Bliss, TX in El Paso, I’m currently a Platoon Leader in the Middle East leading 62 of the best Americans I’ll ever know.
The most enjoyment I get out here is watching the team win on Sundays. Because of the circumstances with this week’s bye, I am using part of my day off to finally listen to Mr. Roethlisberger’s Man Up testimony and Bigger Than Ben series. Both were amazing.
I was in 2nd Grade when Ben was a rookie, and this was basically the first full Steelers season I recall from my childhood. I remember being in my grandma’s living room praying that the Jets kicker would miss the field goal in the Divisional, and he did. The following year, I remember praying even harder that Mike Vanderjagt would miss the kick after Ben made the shoe-string tackle.
The Super Bowl XL Season was the first year my mom allowed me to play football. Throughout my years, my goal was to mimic Big Ben on the field. In high school, I wore #7 proudly. I was never as big and talented as him, but I tried to play as strong and creative as he always has. Similar to him, my passion and family was always about basketball from a young age. But I found leading an offense to be the most satisfying athletic achievement, so I pursued that dream. Watching a Quarterback do that for my favorite team for so many years drove me to do the same.

November 4, 2012 - Steelers vs Giants4979 views"Walking out of the Stadium tonight, no fans left, just a beautiful night, made me think a lot about all our troops here in the U.S. and around the world that fight every day so we can play a crazy game called football.
I thank you all from the bottom of my heart, it’s all of you that make it possible for us to play football. I hope that whether you’re a Steelers fan or not, we make you half as happy watching us play as we do playing!
Thank you all again so much, our thoughts and prayers are with you all!" -– Ben
