USA Weekend - July 20092408 viewsBen and Samuel L. Jackson on the cover.

From the article/interview:

Our USA WEEKEND Magazine cover guys will be [at the 2009 ESPY Awards] : actor Samuel L. Jackson, who's hosting the show for the fourth time, and Ben Roethlisberger, quarterback for the reigning Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers.

Jackson confesses that the show strikes at a primary -- even childlike -- source of joy for him. "When I'm at the ESPYs, the little kid in me who grew up watching sports in Tennessee comes out," he says, taking a break during our cover shoot. "We actors think they're something special, and the sports stars think that the actors are something special. Behind the scenes, you'll hear the top athletes in the world tell an actor, 'I could never do what you do.'

Then you hear an actor tell an athlete the very same thing. It's weird and funny and surreal all at the same time."

Roethlisberger has gone to great lengths to attend the show in the past. He appeared as a surprise guest after suffering serious injuries in a motorcycle accident in 2006. Now, he's returning as a two-time Super Bowl winner. "Sports guys like me get excited about this because many of us are huge movie fans," he says. "When I met Sam the first time, it was great because I know I must have seen 20 of his movies." (Only 20, Ben? The man has more than 120 movie and TV credits on his "IMDb.com" profile!)

Big Ben & Jackson go one-on-one --

We caught up with Jackson and Roethlisberger as they hung out, getting their take on several areas of interest:

Jackson on whether they've golfed together: We've always wanted to. But we just never have gotten together. We did have a near-miss opportunity recently. Ben played in the U.S. Open Challenge. But I couldn't play because I had already committed to another tournament. So Ben played there with Justin Timberlake instead. That J.T. gets all the love!

Roethlisberger on whether he has ever acted: I never have -- unless you count that Disney ad I did after the Super Bowl. But that's not really acting. What Sam does is acting.

Jackson on their common job demands: Both jobs are about preparation. I read my scripts over and over, trying to understand my character. It's the same for Ben. He studies his playbook and practices until the entire complicated process becomes instinctive to him. In the end, we both go out there and perform acts that look spontaneous, as if they're happening for the first time.

*thanks Jan!

Men's Fitness 25 Fittest Guys - June/July 2006 Issue2665 views#1 - Ben Roethlisberger, QB for the Pittsburgh Steelers
"They've won championships, Oscars, and Grammys. They've fought in Super Bowls, boardrooms, and even in the military. They' ve worked hard, completed the toughest jobs, performed the impossible. For MF's salute to the fittest men of the year, we've selected guys who, when facing a wall that separates them from their dreams, haven't just climbed over the obstacle, they've crashed through it."

GQ Magazine, September 20073964 views"Young Guns", All Hail The Young QB's:

Ben Roethlisberger, Age 25.
Team: Pittsburgh Steelers

Team: Pittsburgh Steelers

At least this off-season, Ben Roethlisberger didnâ€™tâ€¦well, you know. Last summer the Super Bowl XL champion was lucky to survive a scary motorcycle accident in downtown Pittsburgh and then followed it up with his most uneven NFL season to date, suddenly looking mortal as the Steelers failed to make the playoffs. Now the guy who won twenty-seven of the first thirty-one games he played is toiling for a new coach (Mike Tomlin, who replaces the square-jawed Bill Cowher), under a new system thatâ€™ll entrust him with the offense more than Cowher ever did, and heâ€™s in peak physical condition. Then thereâ€™s that brand-new chip on his shoulder, which we have to admit to liking. â€œI like being the underdog,â€ Roethlisberger says. â€œI like having everyone against me.â€ Itâ€™s Big Benâ€™s challenge to the nonbelievers. We wouldnâ€™t dare take him up on it.
