Ben Roethlisberger has your typical game room for a pro athlete, complete with memorabilia that includes the two nameplates over his locker from each Super Bowl victory.

The nameplate from his most recent Super Bowl appearance also has a place of honor -- in his bathroom.

"The day I got back, I took my nameplate from my locker -- 'Ben Roethlisberger, Super Bowl XLV' -- and it's sitting underneath my mirror in my bathroom. I want to see that every day. It hurts a lot..........

I read somewhere how Ben hates losing anything and, you got to like how bad he wants to win.

Maybe so, but he is doing something that so many other people would never even think of doing. God are we lucky to have a quarterback like this.

This!

and I would bet the first born we make it back to the Super Bowl based purely on Ben's will to win.

Lets do it Ben... gotta redeem yourself from your boch job performance in that past superbowl. He knows he played horrible on the biggest stage... lucky for us we got a born winner as our quarterback . And I the sour taste of defeat will not leave until he Wins another one!

"I couldn't tell you right now how many yards I had last year, how many touchdowns. I can't tell you. I don't know those things. I don't know what my career touchdowns or yards or anything are. I'd have to look them up.

"The records I want to have are Super Bowl wins...

That's what I'm talkin about !!! Put the pedal to the metal Ben !!!

Yep. But it would have been SOOOO SWEET to have won it in Big Blues own back yard... arrrrggggghhhhh !!!! If Ben gets his last SB (and if its #5 for him) in Dallas.... well that would be absolutely perfect !

This isn't necessarily a good thing. Him taking the loss this hard may mean he puts too much pressure on himself, which doesn't always translate to good results. He may try and do too much on his own and ultimately hurt the team.

Bens theme for 2010.....Redemption. It aint over til he gets that 3rd ring and a Super Bowl MVP.
