Warriors - THE GREATEST PHOTOGRAPHS OF FOOTBALL'S TOUGHEST PLAYERS2383 viewsBen is featured on page 59, under the chapter entitled, COURAGE - "Put on that hard hat, fight off the nerves and get out there on the battlefield. They are the field generals, the steel-nerved executioners who wait...wait..wait to strike as chaos engulfs them. Angry, snarling, snorting, pain-inflicting chaos, dressed in enemy colors and bent on destruction. The quarterback is a different breed of warrior, celebrated for his coolness, fortitude and courage under fire."
There is a quote by Lenny Moore (talking about his QB, Johnny Unitas, back in 1960) at the beginning that explains why these men's photographs were chosen for the 'Courage' chapter: "How did this guy just keep getting up and doing it? Getting up and doing it, game after game? the blows he took, wow! But that's what made him the greatest"
Ben is in this chapter with Johnny Unitas, John Elway, Billy Kilmer and Joe Montana, just to name a few!

2750 views"I am telling you, I am very impressed, and it is not just because he is an opponent. I have not seen anybody come in the league like that. The only guy that I can say came in, and the first year started playing like he is playing, is Dan Marino. He is out of the pocket throwing 50-yard passes right on the money. It is not going to be without growing pains, but I think he is in an ideal situation."
-Dallas Cowboys Head Coach Bill Parcells

USA Weekend - July 20092391 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.
