December 13, 2019 - Lil' Fan Friday258 viewsAnd lastly, we have a cleat thief caught red hand…uh footed!
While her mother, grandmother and Aunt Erin were busy making dinner, two-year old Maeve spied a pair of Ben’s cleats in a box that he had just given me to mail out. Naturally, she just HAD to put them on and clickity-click her way around the house!
Now I know what you’re thinking, “They put those on her just for Ben’s website!â€....

Maison Fetty...789 viewsFrom her proud mom, Melissa:
This is Miss Maison! She is not only a die hard Steeler fan; she is a die hard Ben fan. Ben is her favorite player on the Steelers, she even shh's us when he is on TV and tells us to "be still! Ben is talking". The gesture she is doing with her little hands is what she always does when she watches football or is hamming for the camera in her jersey. There is a funny story about it, she was in kindergarten last year and they had jersey day at her school. In class they were learning sign language. When the teacher asked the class what that symbol stood for, Maison raised her little hand and told her teacher "Touchdown Steelers". The teacher giggled and asked her how she came to that assumption, she smiled and said " because when Ben throws a TD pass that is what he does". The teacher loved it and told me about it because she is a Steelers fan as well and was hoping that is what Maison told her.
Just when you underestimate what your child may or may not know, they suprise you. She was teased in school because her jersey was not pink, but instead of not wearing her jersey anymore, she told the other kids that hers is just like Bens and Ben does not wear pink. She is excited about the upcoming season and seeing Ben on the field and hopefully winning another SB. They seem to hit her even yrs, since I got pregnant with her. Ben won his first one , when I was pregant with her, and he won his second when she was two. They went again when she was four and she turned 6 on July 17. So we believe in this house that it is our year and look forward to the season. Good Luck with the season Ben and good luck to you and your lovely wife on the upcoming birth of your child. Hopefully this year we get to see you and your beautiful family in NO in February.

"My first Steelers game"537 views6-year old James DeSantis wanted to share the story of his exciting day at Heinz Field this past season with Ben and his other fans. He wanted it to be his story, with just a little help from mom and dad:
My favorite team is the Pittsburgh Steelers! I love watching the Steelers and Big Ben on TV, but I really wanted to go to Pittsburgh to see a game with my daddy. It seems like he gets to go all the time! So on August 24th we loaded up and daddy drove me from Ohio to Pittsburgh for the preseason game against the Chiefs. It was a long drive but I didn’t care!
Before the game my daddy took me to a store so I could get my own Steelers jersey. I had a few choices, but of course I picked #7! We went to a place called ‘Station Square’ where daddy took me on a boat and we rode across the river to Heinz Field. It was so big!!! My daddy found me a good spot to watch the game. We had fun watching the Steelers, and I cheered extra loud for Big Ben!!
I cheer for the Steelers to win every weekend, and sometimes I cry when they lose. I like the Steelers because they play good. Ben Roethlisberger is my favorite player because he is a great quarterback. I hope he gets to win another Super Bowl.
When I grow up I will play for the Steelers. I will be #19 and Big Ben will pass me the ball for a touchdown. Go Steelers!
From James’ mom, Mardee:
“James was born with a genetic disease called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). He is still walking and running, but has low stamina and uses a wheelchair or wagon when walking any long distance (like into the stadium). His latest accomplishment is that he figured out how to maneuver his body to be able to ‘punt’ his football. He is so proud of himself!â€
We’re proud of him too! Go James!!! And thank you for sharing your fun day with us!
