Personally, my dad is a Steelers fan and I was born into it, as I’m sure almost all of you were. The first game I remember watching in full was Ben Roethlisberger’s first start against the Browns. I can tell you just about every detail of that game. Gus Johnson was on the call. Ricardo Coclough had a nice return on the opening kickoff. Duce Staley ran for the first score. Ben had his first career rushing touchdown and threw a touchdown to Plaxico Burress.
