On Wednesday, Bill Belichick will tee it up with a star-studded foursome in the pro-am at the Honda Classic in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. But the golf outing isn't a rare occasion for the New England Patriots football coach. He's been playing all his life, including more than two decades at Sankaty Head Golf Club on the island of Nantucket, which he considers his home course.

Although he stays off the links during football season, Belichick maintains around a 16 handicap and gets a dozen rounds in from February to July. In fact, he's already made one Tour stop this month.

Belichick showed up at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am just four days after the Patriots lost the Super Bowl to the Giants.

"It's been tough," Belichick said to CBS.. "It’s a tough couple days, but Pebble Beach is a great spot to take your mind off some of the troubles we had."

As will playing with an old friend. Alabama head coach Nick Saban, who was an assistant under Belichick with the Cleveland Browns in the 90's, was also in the group. Ricky Barnes teamed up with Belichick for the weekend and they managed to finish third, impressing the PGA Tour pro.

Here's a sweet story that sounds like a scene from a chick flick, but even hard-hearts will fall for this hardball tale.

While pitching for the Oakland Athletics in 2010, pitcher Brad Ziegler, 32, spotted an attractive woman in the crowd during a spring training game. After the last out, Ziegler decided he was going to try to find the woman in the stadium parking lot.

With odds stacked heavily against him, Ziegler played amateur detective, darting through thousands of fans leaving that afternoon's A's game in search of a stranger.

"I circled it four times," Ziegler told the Arizona Republic. "It was after the game, so there were a lot of people filtering out, but I remembered what she was wearing and what her friend was wearing so whenever I saw them I knew right away, even though it was across the parking lot. I was like, 'There they are.'"

Her name is Kristen, and she was at the game with an old college friend she hadn't seen in years. Let's just say Kristen was a tiny bit surprised when an unfamiliar person approached.

Most of the time, people with demanding jobs want to leave them behind when quitting time arrives. Law clerks don't want to file more briefs when they get home, actuaries don't want to weigh financial risk from their comfy chairs, and accounts receivable clerks don't want to send past-due invoices over dinner.

However, some people have no choice but to bring aspects of the workplace to their day-to-day lives. Take the professional race car driver. Unless he or she lives above a convenience store, chances are good that most errands will require an automobile. But who wants to deal with parking a Grand Prix race car at the Piggly Wiggly? Even the most accomplished race car driver will need a regular vehicle to negotiate parking lot shrubbery islands.

What follows is a list of drivers who compete in NASCAR and Formula One events, and the cars they drive when they're in no hurry to get anywhere at any particular time.

We know former NFL running back Eddie George is quick to react. We also know from his turn as Julius Caesar that he's got stage presence. And we know he's used to being spotted in public.

But all three came together wonderfully when a TMZ cameraman cornered the Ohio State legend at Los Angeles International Airport and started questioning him on camera.

Problem: The cameraman thought Eddie was Detroit Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson.

Wanna get away?

But Eddie -- who reported all Super Bowl week for Yahoo! Sports -- was hardly offended. He played right along. Watch:
