Yes, I remember that well... I grew up in Oxford, OH where Ben went to college... on visits back to see my parents, I went to a few home games every year -- got to see a lot of games the 3 years Ben Roethlisberger played at Miami... after the Steelers drafted him, I kept following his career... I'm also a fan of Troy Polamalu and followed his career starting from college out here at USC... so, yeah... I remember... reminds me of when San Diego went to Indy and beat them in the playoffs despite Rivers' only having one leg basically -- he couldn't use one leg due to injury so he hopped around a lot and occasionally was carried by players... amazing what some players will play through...

For example, Marshall used to be in the same league as Miami and I remember one game when the QB matchup was Ben for Miami and Byron Leftwich for Marshall... in the first half, Leftwich broke his leg... went to the hospital, had it set and cast and then went back and finished up the 2nd half and won the game (Marshall was the only team Ben never beat even once while playing college ball)... Ben's played some games like that, too -- I wonder how many bones of his 200+ have been broken on the field or in that motorcycle accident. Ben was fun to watch in college.
