September, 2013: Zeus - gone but not forgotten7920 viewsEarlier this week we took my dog, Zeus, to the vet because one morning he didnâ€™t seem like himself. When we got there, they didnâ€™t see much wrong but wanted to run some tests. So, thinking it was nothing big we were going to leave and they were going to call us when he was done. Luckily for us, we went and said goodbye to him and he was tail-wagging and looking as chipper as ever so we thought nothing of the goodbye.

We got a call later that day saying he had a bunch of cancer in his intestines and the vet recommended not waking him up from surgery because it could be miserable for him, and there was no treatment for him. We had to make the painful decision to put him down. Taking comfort in the fact that he wasnâ€™t in pain and we got to see him happy at the end made it a little but easier of a decision but not much.

Zeus was with me for 9 years and was my first dog. He was my man and had been there through Super Bowls, tough losses, injuries, snow storms and the heat. He was the best and I feel blessed to have had him in my/our lives for so long. I know heâ€™s in heaven waiting to play tag or just cuddle again soon.

Zeus, we will always miss you, never forget you, and always remember the funny, happy loving times you have given us, and yes even some of the bad times like when you were a pup and chewed my night stand, lol. You were even so patient with Benjamin when he pulled a handful of your hair right out and you didnâ€™t even flinch.

Love you buddy! Donâ€™t rest in peace bud, because I know you would rather be chasing chipmunks and squirrels! Gone but never forgotten, ZEUS ROETHLISBERGER!

PFC Steven Landa, U.S. Army991 views"Hello there! My name is Steven Landa, I am 19-years old and in the U.S. ARMY. I first saw Big Ben play when he took over for Tommy Maddox in 2004 - it was my first season watching football. I instantly became both a Steelers fan and a Big Ben fan.

I know he must be going through a lot right now with all the criticism but I truly believe Ben has more than what it takes to make it to the top 5 QB's. Not a lot of fans might know this about Ben, but I know there is this poem called, "Don't Quit" that Ben reads before a game. That poem actually helped me not to give up during basic training.

I also don't mind waking up at three in the morning to watch the Steelers play, win or lose! I have been a huge Steelers fan since '04." -- PFC Steven Landa,Charlie Battery 1-43 ADA, U.S. Army.Sep 25, 2013

Ben gains a new fan1226 viewsâ€¦and her name is Zena!

Zena is a 1-year old Rottweiler and is in training to be a search dog with Ohio Disaster Search Dogs & the Bellbrook Fire Department, which is just northeast of Cincinnati.

The Ben Roethlisberger Foundation distributed a grant to the Bellbrook Fire Department earlier this month that will not only help train four K-9 teams, but will assist with updating the aging Vectren Bellbrook Fire Department Search and Rescue Canine Agility Site, managed by the organization, Ohio Disaster Search Dogs. In the past 10 years, the site has hosted K-9 teams from across the nation to provide integral training and practice.

â€œGrant funding will ensure out agility training site continues to be available to enhance training programs of these local and national assets,â€ said Captain Athena Haus of the Bellbrook Fire Department.

Zena wanted to don her new #7 jersey to show Ben just how much she and the other K9 teams appreciated the grant, which will allow them to train to become the best at what they do!

*Thank you to Captain Haus and the Bellbrook Fire Departmentâ€¦.and of course, Zena!Sep 24, 2013
