HEY GUYS! LET’S GO FOR A DIP IN MAH SWIMMING HOLE! HARF HARF HARF
Another dispatch from the Lifestyles of People With Fuck You Money:
Someone sent the following e-mail to the DC Steeler Nation fan club group on Yahoo:
I happen to have some pictures of the new pool just built at Big Ben’s house in Gibsonia. He’s got a number 7 tiled on the bottom of the pool. There’s a “cave” in the deep end with a waterfall for privacy.
There’s a bar in the shallow end with wrap-around granite bar top, submerged bar stools, and a grill. He spent $1.7 million on the pool.
Not too shabby. Matt Leinart thinks it could use more underage girls though.

Unfortunately, when he commissioned photos of the pool, he didn’t have enough money to hire someone with a camera made in the last 25 years.

\agrees with matt leinart
\becomes familiar with megans law the hard way

Nice fuckin model … If Big Ben spent 1.7 mil on that, he must still be post-concussive from the motorcycle accident. No way that pool cost that much, unless he spent about 0.9 million on a huge stack of ‘terrible towels’ for clean up of the cave-nookie.
Hmm… A Captain Caveman article depicting Big Ben as a poon hound in his pool could be fun… just throwing that out there .

Stalkers usually take better pictures than these.
July 22nd, 2008 at 8:35 am
Now he can invite the whole team over for a cookout and Hines can bring the Mongolian BBQ
July 22nd, 2008 at 8:41 am
mmmm…Mongolian BBQ
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:14 am
Weren’t you people paying attention? This poor man has to sleep in a bunk bed for two weeks. It’s really a black mark on us as a nation.
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:14 am
Mike Vick wants to know where the rape stand goes.
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:16 am
Does this mean that Roethlisberger now has to learn how to swim?
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:22 am
Ben enjoys diving head-first into the shallow end.
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:35 am
True story… when Ben first saw the pool, he was pissed because they had tiled a big “L”

The league and the players’ union is right, these are lean times and there is absolutely no excess revenue available to help disabled former players.
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:47 am
no ‘rongrastname’ stenciled over the ‘privacy’ grotto?
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:53 am
So that’s how they got those photos. Hmmmm.
So where is Rimas Sleed?
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:54 am
Over/under on the number of days until Roethlisberger gets sent to the emergency room after trying to have sex with one of the water jets?
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:54 am
Reggie Bush’s Pimp- I loved the rape stand comment.
July 22nd, 2008 at 9:55 am
“My specs! What happened to my specs?!?!?”
July 22nd, 2008 at 10:10 am
Love the swim-up bar. Really gives the place that “having your drink spiked with GHB by a Ohio State TKE brother on Spring Break in Cancun” feel.
July 22nd, 2008 at 10:20 am
Ben will be getting swimming lessions from San Antonio and FWP.
July 22nd, 2008 at 10:23 am
*waterfall flies open*
Rongrastname’s favorite part of the pool is the waterfall cave, which he has dubbed “Black Bart’s Cave.” There’s also a fake treasure chest cemented and painted into the wall, which unfortunately Ben forgets every time he leaves the cave and returns thinking he’s found Black Bart’s lost treasure.
July 22nd, 2008 at 10:36 am
I wonder if there’s room for Cedric Benson’s boat in there
July 22nd, 2008 at 10:39 am
“Not too shabby. Matt Leinart thinks it could use more underage girls though.”
Brady Quinn thinks it needs more…
…too easy.
July 22nd, 2008 at 10:39 am
So, did Hines give Rongrastname his cheddar back? I would appreciate some continuity in these stories, CC.
July 22nd, 2008 at 10:48 am
My name is Otto and I love to get grotto.
July 22nd, 2008 at 10:49 am
i have a feeling the steelers are going to regret the omission of a “no-hammock” clause in big ben’s contract.
July 22nd, 2008 at 11:16 am
I can’t live in a house without a waterfall, what am I a peasant?
July 22nd, 2008 at 11:46 am
BIG BEN NO CARE ABOUT COST I SIGN CONTRACT AND HAS CASH IN A FLASH.
July 22nd, 2008 at 11:56 am
You would think that for $1.7 million he could have built it somewhere besides Western Pennsylvania.
July 22nd, 2008 at 12:02 pm
@ twoeightnine – exactly what i was thinking. 1.7M buys a lot of trips to mexico or wherever the hell western PA women are not.
July 22nd, 2008 at 12:03 pm
Nice pool Ben, too bad you still have to live in western PA
July 22nd, 2008 at 12:03 pm
RE “Matt Leinart thinks it could use more underage girls though.”
They’re in the cave behind the waterfall. That’s why you can’t see them.
Yeah, the pictures suck. I could do better with my $130 Nikon. Nice pool, though.
July 22nd, 2008 at 12:03 pm
F 289!
July 22nd, 2008 at 12:09 pm
…and when it was finished, Ben had the entire pool area razed and converted into his own miniature Vans Skatepark.
July 22nd, 2008 at 12:23 pm
[...] Big Ben spent a lot of money on his pool. [Kissing Suzy Kolber] [...]
July 22nd, 2008 at 12:52 pm
It is going to be awkward as Big Ben continually mistakes Troy Polamalu as someone there to clean the pool, right?
July 22nd, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Is that you one-eyed Willie?
July 22nd, 2008 at 2:55 pm
Considering they $21 million for Mahan, $1.7 for a swimming pool seems one of the more shrewd Steeler investments. At least now Jeff Reed has somewhere to shoot skinflicks during the offseason.
July 22nd, 2008 at 3:19 pm
You have me ovel, Rongrastname… I test the pH revers in youl poor. Then we pray Malco Poro…
July 22nd, 2008 at 8:21 pm
Way to go Roethlisburger. You were a douche already, now you got the house to prove it.
Have fun in the stinkpit known as Western Pennsylvania.
July 23rd, 2008 at 8:37 am
His Jersey # along the bottom? I thought Roethlisburger was a white Qb…
