On The Scene
Out and About in the Sports World

Bada Bing!!

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger recently presented an ESPY Award with actress Jamie-Lynn Sigler, who played mob-daughter Meadow Soprano on the HBO hit series.

Lines from cue-cards weren't all the duo shared, however. The pair also did a photo-shoot for ESPN The Magazine, sparking rumors of a budding relationship.

The fourth-year quarterback denied any romance, however, saying, "She's got a boyfriend. We just did a photo shoot together."

Bachelor Pad

Penguins star Sidney Crosby, Pittsburgh's Most Eligible Bachelor, may finally be moving out of Mario Lemieux's house after two years as a squatter. Crosby, who first moved to Pittsburgh as an 18-year old, has lived in the guesthouse of the Pen's owner for the past two seasons.

But after signing the richest contract in team history, Sid the Kid has been talking to friends about making his own home purchase. Mario's house is big, sure, but Sid figures to be buying a lot more toys in the coming months - the kid's gonna need more room.

Desperate Point Guard?

Everyone knows the Wedding of the Summer took place between NBA Champion Tony Parker and TV beauty Eva Longoria. The newlyweds' reception was held on July 7 and may have sparked yet another TV-NBA romance. Parker introduced Longoria's Desperate Housewives co-star Teri Hatcher to fellow NBA guard Baron Davis of the Golden State Warriors, and it appears the two had an instant connection.

"Baron and Teri really hit it off," said a friend. "They talked and danced all night and had a great time. They couldn't seem to get enough of each other!"

Later that month, the duo was spotted together again at the Hollywood eatery Pace.
