June 2, 2013 - The Second Annual Ben Roethlisberger Foundation Fundraiser1284 viewsBen and Leigh Ann Lubarsky from the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Last year alone Ben helped grant 14 wishes, while raising $25,000 to fund wishes, a unique combination not often seen.
“When you see the kids when Ben comes across the field and calls out their name, and starts joking with them and interacting, that is so meaningful,†said Leigh Ann Lubarsky, the manager of program services at Make-A-Wish. “But we can’t grant the wishes without the funds to support. Both mean so much. It seems so effortless by him to do all of this.â€

Training Camp, 2015 530 viewsQ&A with Big Ben:
Is quarterback more fun to play than when you started?
It’s always fun to play quarterback. When you have a group of guys that you’ve played with for a while now, and the same group coming back, the coach lets you have a lot of fun with it and have a lot of influence. It’s fun to participate in. It’s fun to see the talented young guys we have.
Is the ceiling for this group of offensive players as high as any you’ve been around?
Potentially. I think it’s still always about staying healthy, as it is with any team. Staying healthy, and [we need to] keep wanting to get better, each guy individually. If each individual wants to get better, then collectively as a group we’ll get better.
You guys talked about the red zone issues early in the season that seemed to get better as the year went on. How would you like to see this offense evolve?
We just want to keep getting better in every phase of the game. Name a category, and we’ll say we want to get better at it. Whether it’s individually or collectively, as a group we need to get better and score more points, get better on third-down, red zone, first-down, second-down, everything.
Why is 30 points per game a realistic goal for this team?
It’s what our offensive coordinator set as a goal for us, so that’s what we’re going to try and do.
How important will Martavis Bryant’s development be?
It will be big. He’s put the work in. He looks good. He’s picking everything up. Last year we just kind of put him in there and gave him a couple of things to do, which he did really well at. Now we’re asking him to do more. We’re asking him to move around a little bit, front side, back side, and to know things better. I’m going to count on him in the no-huddle. Last year he’d ask everyone what to do. Now we feel more comfortable with him knowing what to do. Hopefully he’ll be able to translate that into playing faster.
13 days from your first game, what do you try to accomplish in these early practices?
Stay cool and really just staying healthy. We’ve got everyone back on offense, so that helps. It’s not really breaking in new guys. Obviously De’Angelo Williams is new, but really just trying to keep it going and piggyback off of last year. We don’t want to take any steps back.
What has Coach Tomlin meant to you during your career? How has he changed as a coach?
We’ve been together for a long time. I’m happy to have the same coach around for a long time. I’m glad he’s going to be here for a long time, along with a couple other people in the front office that were signed as well. It’s always fun when you can keep the same group of guys around, because of the familiarity with each other.
What did Jerome Bettis mean to you early in your career? How would you describe the relationship that you guys have?
Like a big brother. And we still do. A [much] older big brother. It’s just great. He was such an awesome leader and person. I still to this day, whenever there’s a situation dealing with a player, I think ‘How would Jerome handle this? What would he do?’ That’s how much I look up to him, because he meant that much to me and to everybody. He was such a good teammate and leader. I’m so happy for him going in [to the Hall of Fame]. It’s about time.

November 20, 2020 - Lil' Fan Friday186 views“My family was in Cleveland last weekend visiting grandparents. We of course watched the Steelers game amidst a bunch of Browns fans. My 10-year old son went for a halftime bike ride with his uncle and had a bad accident. He was riding on a small dirt trick course. He hit a small jump and instead of landing, hiss flew over the handle bars. His face took the impact. We went to the ER. He got 5 stitches in his chin but he also knocked his bottom front teeth loose and chipped 2 teeth. We watched the end of the Steelers game and saw Big Ben throw the winning TD. Then he was ready to get his stitches. We decided to bring him home to get his teeth taken care of. Monday was a long day of dental and orthodontic work. He got braces on his bottom teeth to stabilize and gently move the damaged teeth. He chose black and gold bands!
Luke was tough the whole time. He had recently watched Big Ben’s movies about his surgery and recovery. Luke said ‘Oh man…it’s going to hurt to get these stitches out! Big Ben was even in pain!!’ I told him these stitches were way different!
He has been watching the Steelers his whole life. Mommy and Daddy went to Miami with Big Ben. We are thankful Big Ben is a Christ following role model for our boys.†— Mom Allison.
