Big Ben parties before Super Bowl at piano bar

It seems Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is taking the work hard-play hard approach to the Super Bowl. Big Ben and his teammates were out on the town Tuesday partying at a piano bar in Fort Worth, Texas. The notorious quaterback racked up an $800 bar tab and tipped an additional $200 as him and his teammates sang Billy Joel’s Piano Man.

When asked about his night on the town, Big Ben said: “It was a superstition and tradition on Tuesday night. I take the linemen out to dinner. We went out for barbecue and then we wanted to hear some live music. We just had an enjoyable night.”

Surprisingly, Green Bay Packers quaterback Aaron Rodgers was absent from the festivities.

Government siezes 10 websites for streaming sporting events before Super Bowl

The US Government has shutdown at least 10 websites for illegally streaming sporting events. The crackdown comes with Super Bowl XXLV just four days away. The websites do not stream the content themselves but post links to other illegal websites.

“The illegal streaming of professional sporting events over the Internet deals a financial body blow to the leagues and broadcasters, who are forced to pass their losses off to fans by raising prices for tickets and pay-per-view events,” said Preet Bharara, U.S. Attorney in Manhattan. “With the Super Bowl just days away, the seizures of these infringing websites reaffirm our commitment to working with our law enforcement partners to protect copyrighted material and put the people who steal it out of business.”

I take it Bharara doesn’t know Fox is charging $3 million for 30 seconds of commercial time during the Super Bowl… talk about a finical blow!
