August 1, 2010648 views From Ben's chat with the media the first day of camp:
Q: Was it important to you in the morning practice to open as the No. 1 quarterback
Ben: “It felt good to be able to get in there with the first group and it felt pretty special.â€
Q: Is it strange not to know the full rotation?
Ben: “You guys probably know as much as I do. We’re just taking it one day at a time and tomorrow could be completely different.â€
Q: Are you comfortable with the rotation of you and Byron (Leftwich) so far?
Ben: “I’m up for whatever they want. I’m helping any and all of the quarterbacks, the young receivers, the tight ends, running backs. Byron and I are communicating a lot about different things that we see out there and Charlie’s still in there and Dennis so whatever rotation they want me to do. I’d run the scout team if they wanted me to.â€
Q: Can you talk about your conditioning?
Ben: “I feel great. I feel I’m in the best shape. I know I’ve said that before but I feel better than I ever have and spent a lot of time working out and still am. Every night I’m up here working out. We have to do it because I want to be the best, and that’s what it takes.â€
Q: How close do you feel you are to having a great season when you do get in there?
Ben: “Right now I feel great. It’s a matter of being able to work out and do stuff during the (suspension) however long that may be. That’s going to be the key, how long it’s going to be and how soon can I get back out there.â€
Q: You’ve played great football in the past. Can you play better?
Ben: “I think so but you never know. I’m not a fortune teller. You’ve got to deal with injuries, you’ve got to deal with a lot of elements. If I can just continue to improve every day I think that will be good."
Q: Do you plan to talk to the commissioner (Roger Goodell) when he visits Thursday and are you optimistic of getting your suspension reduced from six games to four?
Ben: “I think everyone made a big deal that he’s coming here just to see me, and he’s kind of making a tour of all the camps. But, yeah, I’ll talk to him, I’m sure a lot of people will. I don’t know what we’ll talk about, it’s hard to say but it’s ultimately going to be his call and his decision on what he does with each individual player. And he’s the commissioner and boss that makes the decisions. He’ll do what he feels is right, I’m sure.â€
Q: What is your goal personally and professionally coming out of all of this?
Ben: “To be the best. I hope we can get past this, get on the football field and win championships. That’s always my goal, and that’s not going to change. I want to win a championship this year. That’s my ultimate goal.â€

Adding the crowning touch!460 viewsChad Pointer was married in that jersey back on June 29, 2012! He shared his photos with us in March of this year. His wish was to go to training camp and get Ben to sign it...and it happened, on the first day that camp was open to the fans!
"Ben in my book is second to NONE from his Ironman play on the field to his K9 work off the field", Chad said in March. "We live in Evansville Indiana and love our Steelers and the greatest QB ever!!! Our first date was to the Tampa Bay vs Steelers game 3 yrs ago, she was a TB fan, has been a Steelers fan every since. We were married in West Palm Beach, Florida, the same place I proposed a year before. We then had our reception back home in Indiana - even entered the room to 'Renegade' playing."
