Default Here'sssssssss Jim hard at work:)

Here's a photo that my sideline helper (grip) and friend Randy Romo shot of me while covering the Bucs win over the Seahawks on 12/20/09. See....notice the sunshine we get from time to time, so it's not always a dull grey day in the great Pacific Northwest. It's true.......my wife says I have a job like George Jetson...I sit on my ass and press a button. I like shooting from the corner or the end zones with my big white lens. That way I can get great defensive plays, super pass catching, interceptions and quarterback sacks.

Now that's a very "manly" lens you got there Jim!!

I think you need a bigger lens. One could probably launch a football out of the end of it.

still don't know how you can keep the thing still enough to have a sharp clean shot....of course, in this case, the weight would help stabilize the camera
