BIG BEN'S Beguiling Boldness - November/December 2006 issue
Tim 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."
