As we inch closer to Super Bowl XLIII, The Max will be asking for your daily input on some of the more interesting prop bets surrounding the big game. We’re calling the feature The Daily Over/Under. Our first bet revolves around Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger:
How many times will Al Michaels and John Madden annoy you by calling Roethlisberger “Big Ben”? We’re setting the over/under at six. Leave your best guess below.
Because we are our biggest fans, we will make the first comment here. We’re taking the under, believe it or not. We even think that Michaels will say it more than Madden… mostly because Madden will forget where he is by the 3rd quarter.
Your second biggest fan says over. That’s what cue cards are for – to keep Madden on track!

They probably already know that people are counting how many times they will say “Big Ben”. So I bet they have been told by their producers to not say it at all. I’m taking the under.
