It's a big day for football players and the famous women who love them. We already told you about the Reggie Bush-Ciara pairing, and now comes word on the Burgh Blog via Deadspin that Ben Roethlisberger is dating the lovely woman you see here, Missy Peregrym. Am I stretching things by calling Missy Peregrym "famous"? IMDB lists four episodes of Smallville she's been on, as well as some movies I've never heard of. If you'd like to know more about her, check out this interview:
No word on whether Big Ben has met the father, but he seems like a guy who's hard to intimidate.Q. What were you like in high school?
A. A boy. (laughs) I was a tomboy growing up, totally, playing in the dirt. I was never allowed to wear white jeans. This is like amazing that I'm wearing them right now but it's only because I'm not outside playing in dirt. But, I hung out with guys all the time. I was very active in sports. I didn't watch a lot of TV or go to movies very much.
Q. Were you popular? Did you date?
A. I wasn't allowed to date until I was 16, and they had to meet my father so that was kind of intimidating for anybody.

Seems that at least some parts of Ben's decision-making are improving, then...

what do I care who he is dating. It isnt my business. Anyways this is just a stupid rumor. I think ben is a good QB. The question is will he be the QB the first two years he was in the NFL. Only time will tell, I think he still has it. I dont think he is a dope head, though. But no offense to men but they get to much testorine in their head and think they are everything. I also think tom brady seems like a jerk. Many of them players in the NFL are selfish anways.

I may be a geek to point this out, but she's only been in one episode of Smallville. The other three were "online specials."
Ooh, I can feel the geekness oozing out of me for even knowing that.

THIS IS RIDICULOUS!! BEN TOOK THE STEELERS TO THE TITLE GAME AND THEY WON.TO MANY PEOPLE FORGET THAT IF ONE INDIVIDUAL PLAYER HAS A BAD YEAR THEN THAT PLAYER IS DONE!!!!! ANY ONE THAT DOUBTS BIG BEN IS CRAZY. JUST REMEMBER THE DENVER GAME IN DENVER FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP OR THE INDY GAME IN INDY (WASN'T THAT TEAM SUPPOSED TO BE THE TEAM TO BEAT) AND HE DID IT!!!

Ben,
Look man! Please have an uneventful off season and get back to the grind. If I peg you right, you gotta be hungry to do MUCH MUCH better than you did last season. I got nothing but love for you as I am a die hard Steeler fan. Thanks for the super bowl victory two years ago and thanks for the tackle on Harper in the Colts game! Heres to 2007!

well i don't think she is all that attractive but he is kinda a backwoods looking man himself so all is well i guess. to the people who sem to think that the steelers are a fluke still they won super bowl 40 get over it sorry your team didn't. they have made it to the playoffs 10 of the last 15 seasons, has your team? with tomlin we will weed out all the dying wheels and come back better and stronger next year. some of you have to be bengals fans, the bungals still suck. they may win a few more reg. season games now but thats it. everyone always wants to talk about the steelers or big ben, just ask yourself what has your team done for you lately? are they in the playoffs almost every year? if not shut your mouth and have some cheese with that whine if they are good then you know what its like around people who are jealous......

Big Ben CARRIED the Steelers to the Bowl with his passing. If not for Ben the Steelers never get there in the first place. Don't even TRY that stupid Grossman crap. Ben carried his team, Grossman did not.
P.S. Cleveland STILL sucks.
