301 viewsJohn Salley: "Wouldn't you love throwin' to me? I'd just come in twenty yards and ten yards in, you throw it in, I jump up, I catch it, I hang on and then I wait for all the little guys to get out of the way, and then I go."
Ben: "Do you think that if you went up and someone like Troy Polamalu came and hit you about here (Ben puts his hands near his ribs) when you did like this that you'd be okay?"
John: "Yeah, but they can't hit me until I catch it, and Troy would be on my team."
Rodney Peete" "See, that's where you're mistaken..."
John: "Oh! Then I don't want to play your type of sport."

337 viewsChris: "Ben, as always, thanks for being here. We know you are also a huge golf fan and you had a chance to go out to the World Famous 16th hole, it's a Par 3 - biggest "party hole" in all of golf especially because of what happened there eleven years ago. Do you remember?"
(a clip is shown from Tiger Woods hole-in-one at that same hole in 1997)
Chris: "Now you play alot of golf, wouldn't you like to stand there for a Pro Am or something?"
Ben: "I would. That would be a lot of fun. I went over there today and got to see a little bit of the action. They let people have it - they're booin' if you don't hit the green, so it's a little bit of pressure. You would have gotten booed!"

306 viewsAfter a clip of John Salley's interview with LaDainian Tomlinson who said he would root for the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl -
Chris: "Do you root for the AFC team?"
Ben: "Everyone's different. To me, I just want to see a good game. I'm a Brady fan, I like Tom Brady. I think he's unbelievable, so I think it's gonna be hard to beat him but Manning and the Giants are playing good right now."
