Hello again everyone sorry it has been a couple of days since my last blog, I have been kinda busy with practice and things. I hope this blog finds everyone doing well and I hope that everyone is having a great week.
We had our second practice of the week today and it went really well. I feel that we are looking good on both sides of the ball. Everyone is pretty healthy and it is great to have the Bus back out there on the field. Alan Faneca has not been here for a couple of days because of his pregnant wife so everyone keep he and his family in your thoughts. I know he would appreciate your support.
Since we have talked last I have played in 2 golf outings, Heinz's and Marc Bulgers. Both were a great time except I think Heinz cheated because he won his own outing and I know he is not that good of a golfer haha. Ohh well I guess he had some good golfers on his team.
A couple of us went to dinner last night. We went to Nakoma (I don't know if I spelled it right) but it was really good. It was my first time there and the sushi was great. I took Heath so that we could talk in the car a little on the way over there and I could answer some of his questions..p.s. he's going to be great!!
Anyway, I hope that everyone has a great memorial weekend. Please be safe, smart and remember don't drink and drive. The answer how old is Zeus..he will be 8 months on the 8th of June. The new question is what size shoe do I wear?

Ben, I was reading the lima Newspaper this morning and saw that your grandfather had died. I was very sorry to see that. He was a great man who volunteered his time to work with some of our students from Faurot School. He will be sadly missed.Know that you and your family are in the thoughts and prayers of all of the Lima Steeler backers and the staff members from Faurot School.

Ben,
I'm so sorry about your grandfather. I've lost all of my grandparents so unfortunately I can sympathize. My fiancee and I watched you play holes 10, 15, 16, 17, and 18 on Friday at the Mario Lemieux. I was the short girl with the khaki hat carrying around a picture of you to sign (in case you noticed me with the other 5,000 people watching you). I refuse to be rude, bother you, or step in front of children who are waiting for you, so I never got your autograph, but that's ok. It was a pleasure just watching you play. And then I heard about your grandpa...it really puts things in perspective about what's important. God bless you and your family, you're in my thoughts and prayers. Please tell Zeus I said hello. God bless, Marissa Reed and Forrest Smith

Hey Ben-

Rumor has it that you're a bass fisherman - is that true? If so, will you be heading out to the Bass Masters Classic at the end of July? I know the pro anglers would love that support.

Thanks,

Amy

Ben - Hello. My sister and I posted here before. She is in Lima and I'm in Toledo. (Pam Loftis, and myself) From her, just now, I heard about your grandfather, Kenneth Carl Roethlisberger, and his passing. I am so sorry to hear of this. I lost my grandmother, who lived in Monaca, Pa, just a couple years ago and fully understand how it can hurt. I hope you got to see him enough to make you feel without regret. That's hardest to deal with. The certainty is that he was highly proud of you. My deepest sympathy and wishes of God's blessing, comforting touch. God Blesses You.

Kindest Regards,

Chris Gossett - Spitznogle

Hi Ben,
My name is Jessica and I live about an hour outside of Pittsburgh. Actually Northwest. My little Town cheers for the steelers all the time. Last year you restored my faith in them. I would love to hear from you. I know you are a busy athlete but I will leave you my address. californiasurfer_2005@yahoo.com. Sorry to hear about your grandpa and your dog sounds like he is having fun. I will wear your jersey all year and wave my terrible towel this season. Hope to hear from you soon.

[Jessica]

I guess your shoe size is a 14 or 15. I say that because my 15 year old brother is 6 foot and has a size 14 or 15 sized shoe.

[Aimee]

Ben,

My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family in this sad time. May you all be well as the time passes.

Hey Ben,

I too lost my Grandfather recently and definitly know how you may be feeling. I take comfort knowing he has joined those whom he missed that passed before him. Kind of like a heavenly reunion wouldn't you say?

Train diligently and with enthusiasm. You may not realize, but many who would love to play sports and cannot live through YOU!

God Bless you and yours, take care of yourself and those around you and God along with your dearly departed will be very proud of you!

Hey Ben, I really hope you get this message. I CAN CURE JEROME BETTIS' ASTHMA.
My daughter Bayli had SEVERE asthma for the first 7 years of her life. My wife found a product that changed my daughter's life and fixed her asthma problem for good. Its been a year now since she has needed albuterol or any conventional medicine. I know that it must seem odd that I'm telling you this, but I have had no luck at all contacting Mr Bettis himself.
So, I really need you to hand this off to him. This is no joke, and the product helps battle all sorts of different medical problems, not just asthma.
The product is a glyconutrient, also known as an essential sugar. It works by rebuilding damaged cells. Stem cells reproduce by "copying" other cells. If the cells being duplicated are damaged, then the newly copied cells will be damaged too.
It took just 2 months of taking this essential sugar to cure my daughter Bayli. She now competes in gymnastics (4 hours a day/ 4 days a week) and has full lungs of oxygen.
See, doctors prescribe medicine to control symptoms. This stuff actually treats the problem at hand. No more symptoms to control.
The company is called Mannatech. The product I'm talking about is called Ambrotose. Mannatech is a newer company so you might not have heard about them, but please, please contact me to learn more. This is not a gimmic. I didn't give it any credit until I saw amazing results
FIRST HAND!!!
I really hope you read your own mail, because you seem like a very considerate and intellectual man. I've heard you speak in interviews and it's clear that you have a good head on your shoulders. That makes me a very comfortable Steeler fan, having you to drive the bus. Let me add that I can't wait for this years season. You did a great job last year. Keep up the hard work, stay poised, and be humble when you hold up that Vince Lombardi Trophy.
Please listen, and help me help Jerome.

P.S. I know Joey Porter from Bakersfield. He will remember me as his pest controller. I own a company, and I have worked for him in the past. I'm just telling you in case you would like to have a referance on me. Everything I explained about my daughter is absolutely true.
Sorry this is sooooooo long, but I am very sure that I can fix Bettis' asthma for good!!!

if anyone know anyone struggling with cancer, asthma, multiple sclorosis, or any other life changing problem, feel free to contact my wife at: glycoinfo@sbcglobal.net

How can a football team be such a "tight-knit" family when everything you do will affect whether or not you're on the team?
Just something I've been thinking about. I think you guys are great.

[minnib]

$%&^%&^ Pittsburgh!? Thats not nice. Wow...we are sorry you feel that way:-(

[taylor]

Ben, how you doing. I dont know if you saw, but they couldn't spell your name right on madden 06 because it was too long. They are only allowed to use 13 characters so it is spelled "Roethlisbergr". All the madden geeks tell me that it would take alot for them to change the entire database to 14 characters for one player, but still. I dont think it is too hard. Just lazy on EA Sports' part. I think it looks better as "Rothlisberger" instead of Roethlisbergr. have a great season, cya

Dear Mr.Ben Roethlisburger,
Hello!My name is Sam Jackson. I'm in the eigth grade. I love football. I wanted to be a football player, but I am in a wheelchair. My dad told me one knows not his limits. He said you never even were quaterback til one day you found something you were great at.I think I would like to be in football. Perhaps as a coach or agent for players. I think I would like to be an agent and work for great players like you some day. Mr. Blackwell, my fourth period teacher made us write a paper about what we want to do when we grow up. I told him but he said you have to know people. I told him I would fined out who your agent is and he laughed. I believe I can do anything I set my mind to and I hope that you will respond and let me know who your agent is and what he look likes.
Your Biggest Fan,
Sam
