BIG BEN'S Beguiling Boldness - November/December 2006 issue2200 viewsTim McNellie: "As a kid growing up you must have dreamed of football glory, of being an NFL star and winning a Super Bowl. Now you're there. How does the reality compare to what you'd imagined?"
Ben: "Well it’s funny because as a kid when you’re out in the street – and I was always throwing the ball as Joe Montana and catching it as Jerry Rice – I dreamed a lot about playing in the Super Bowl. What you don’t think about — and why would you, because you don’t know any better — is all the scrutiny that comes with it. You don’t think about living under a magnifying glass, you don’t think about all the interviews, all the extra pressure. All you think about normally is the game. You don’t think about all the extra things that go with it. But even with all that extra stuff, a Super Bowl is a Super Bowl, and that’s the goal of every NFL player."

Inside of "SI - 50 Years of Faces in the Crowd", 12/15/063938 viewsBen Roethlisberger, Quarterback, Pittsburgh Steelers
>The day Ben Roethlisberger appeared in FACES IN THE CROWD, Findlay High School athletic director Jerry Snodgrass decided to have some fun. He scanned the magazine page into his computer at school and changed key words to make the item read as if it were celebrating the star quarterback's achievements in dodgeball. When Roethlisberger read it, Snodgrass recalls, he laughed so hard "he just literally rolled on the floor."
The joke page was fun, but Roethlisberger remembers the real one as a benchmark in his young career. "It was my first time ever in a magazine, one I subscribed to since I was real little," he says. "So to be in there was just awesome." After four years at Miami (Ohio), Roethlisberger was taken in the first round by the Steelers, and became the starter the second game of the season and went 14-1, becoming the Rookie of the Year. In his second year, he led the Steelers to victory in Super Bowl XL.

USA Weekend Magazine - October 19-21, 20071979 viewsBen Roethlisberger Hands It To Canines
Ben with one of his dogs, Hercules, in Switzerland last year."Growing up in Findlay, Ohio, I always had dogs around my house, and my dad instilled in me a love and respect for animals. Today, I have two wonderful dogs to come home to every day.
Last year, Flip, the lone police dog in my hometown, was shot and killed, so I bought the department a new dog and came up with a concept. Part of my Ben Roethlisberger Foundation -- which already funds a youth football program in Findlay and benefits the Ronald McDonald House in Pittsburgh -- would provide grants to buy a service dog for police and fire departments in every city where we play a game this season and, when we play at home, somewhere in Pittsburgh.
In some cases, the city doesn't need a dog, but it needs bulletproof vests for its animals, just like a regular officer would wear. Many police department budgets don't include funding for protective K-9 vests. The police tell us what's needed.
Unfortunately, I'm not able to meet most of the dogs our grants provide, but I have played with Spike, Flip's successor. He is an amazing animal and can jump right up to the ceiling of an office building -- like 8 feet.
I was raised to appreciate my blessings and always try to help others not as fortunate as myself. Making a difference is about influencing and changing lives. We all have the power to do that. Make A Difference Day is your chance to help your fellow man -- or man's best friend."
