Daniel 5:1-31
Ben Roethlisberger is the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback. He is 6-5, 250. His nickname is "Big Ben." Roethlisberger earned the AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2004.

Big Ben has been accused of sexual assault for the second time in two years. Truth be known, Ben likes to drink and party. Needless to say, this leads him to rendezvous with young women.

The most recent news is that Big Ben has hired a private investigator to look into this young woman's background.
