Can ESPN (and others) please stop calling Roethlisberger "Big Ben"? There is only one Big Ben: Ben Wallace. I am sick of clicking on a link thinking I'm going to have an interest in, only to find some bullshit about a Steelers QB.

Just had to vent. Commence the tired "basketball sucks" comments.

I suspect they have some 'inside info' on which Ben is truly Big.

pro hoops and their players sux worse than a lemonparty.

Oh, shit, I didn't expect a lemonparty reference from Bucc. Anyway, I think someone needs to come tell all the people here in the Pittsburgh area (particularly the ones with all the "Big Ben" merchandise) about this Ben Wallace fellow.

I agree with you about NBA players sucking for the most part, but the Pistons are filled with classy pros (except for MAYBE Rasheed).

Sweet. I guess if I send him some barley, he can make beer.

Not without some good yeast.

I won't go further.

Funny, I have never read anything about Ben Wallace and "Big Ben".

I think Roethlisberger is the original "Big Ben" and Wallace needs to go sit down and stop stealing Big Bens thunder.

You are wrong, Sir. BW has been the original since like 2000. He has the tattoo to prove it.
