Big Ben won't ask for reduction after all?
Ben Roethlisberger - QB - Pittsburgh Steelers
Sept. 2, 2010 - 10:35 PM ET

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that Ben Roethlisberger and Steelers president Art Rooney II "will not be politicking" to have the quarterback's suspension reduced beyond two games.

The Post-Gazette refutes previous reports that Rooney is accompanying Roethlisberger to pressure commissioner Roger Goodell into reducing the suspension to "at least" three games. "That door is not open," according to a source close to the situation. Big Ben's meeting will take place Friday morning.
