Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said the quarterbacks and equipment men have been busy trying to break in the specially-designed Super Bowl footballs, which have a large and evidently slippery painted logo on them.

“I was just talking to our equipment guys, and I told them we should break these 12 balls in,” Roethlisberger said. “They looked and me and said, ‘Twelve balls? No, it’s 54.’

"They’ve had a lot to break in. It’s not the easiest thing to grip in the world and we’re the only position that has to deal with it on a constant basis, so we’ve been working on them and getting them ready.

“I’m sure Kurt (Warner) will have his gloves on, which I did in the first game (Super Bowl XL), and it helps a bit. For me, it’s just going to be an adjustment, because my hands will be sweating for the first time in probably three months or so.”

There’s not a lot of late-season games in warm weather, playing in Pittsburgh.
