I'm going to chime in with underexposed as well, just in case it hasn't been emphasized enough. It's amazing what Photoshop (or equivalent programs) can bring out of the underexposed areas, but they rarely can recover anything from the blown out areas.
When I take action photography where shots come so quickly that I never have a chance to check my shots, I always error on the side of underexposure, almost purposely underexposing my photos, so that I have more options in post.
