| NEW YORK – Ben Roethlisberger will prepare himself for the new NFL season by embarking upon an extraordinary golfing marathon he believes will sharpen his focus in advance of the 2012 campaign.
The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback is heading to Ireland and Scotland in June, where he will play some of the finest and most difficult courses in the world. But Roethlisberger insists the trip is not simply about recharging his batteries over the summer; it is designed to provide him with a mental challenge that will serve him well once football rolls around again.
“It is going to be pretty hardcore,” Roethlisberger told Yahoo! Sports. “I will be playing something like 12 courses in 10 days and they are some of the very best ones that you can find. I’m going to the K Club, St Andrews, and a bunch of others.”

Probably. But it sure beats his previous off-season "workouts."  _________________  If you're going to be a smart ass, you'd better be smart. Otherwise, you're just an ass. | |

Probably. But it sure beats his previous off-season "workouts." I thought they were "work-ins"?  _________________  -"I stand corrected... But I absolutely and wholeheartedly fart in the general direction of almost every other thing you have posted to this point."- | |

I thought they were "work-ins"? I think it involves both ins and outs.  _________________ If you're going to be a smart ass, you'd better be smart. Otherwise, you're just an ass. | |
