Brown In Cleveland

I hope you have a great weekend.  I’m working hard at enjoying mine.  Today’s photo is of the great Antonio Brown.  I took this last November in Cleveland on a very cold game day.  The Steelers won the game 24-9, but that score is deceiving.  The game wasn’t as close as that score.  It could have easily been 40-9.  The Browns just looked terrible.

Study of Brandon Marshall

When the Jets were in town playing the Steelers, I focused my attention on Brandon Marshall (@brandonmarshall15).  He is probably the Jets best player.  As a wide receiver, he probably isn’t the best ever, but he is extremely good.  Below are some of my Brandon Marshall photos from that game.  Enjoy the Brandon Marshall series below.

TJ Jones Making The Catch

Here is another football photo for you.  I captured this a few weeks ago, when Detroit played Pittsburgh at Heinz Field.  TJ Jones is in his 2nd year in the NFL.  The Lions drafted him as the 189th pick within the 6th round.  Hopefully this former Notre Dame player will bring some magic to the Lions.

Larry Fitzgerald

What a great person, football player and humanitarian.  I’ve enjoyed watching him play for years and it was nice getting to meet him last season.  After watching some of the NFL Draft last night, it had me longing for the 2016 season to start.  And that got me posting this photo tonight of the great #11.

Missing Calvin

Not only has Calvin not played the last couple of weeks, but the Detroit Lions have a bye this week.  It seems like two years since he’s been on the field….even though I know it hasn’t been that long.  So I’ll be forced to watch some other NFL teams today, when I just want to see Calvin catching 50 year TD passes.   Is it a man-crush?  I think not.  But I’ll admit, I’m a huge Calvin fan.  Unfortunately, I think he’ll be hurt more and more often.  But I’ll enjoy watching him when he’s on the field.

Have a great NFL Sunday.




Antonio Brown

Here is another picture from last Sunday’s game.  As everyone knows, I am not a Steelers fan, since my favorite team is the Lions.  But I have to admit, Antonio Brown is a great player.  He is exciting, dynamic, and just fun to watch.


If you look closely, you can see QB Ben Roethlisberger in the background.  Antonio has a long run after the pass from Big Ben.

Football Is Finally Here!!!

MJ and I had a great trip to Michigan this weekend to visit our families.  It was a wonderful trip and we enjoyed visiting with everyone.  We drove back tonight for two reasons.

1.     To get some things done around our house on Monday before the holiday weekend is complete

2.     So I could get ready for the Monday night University of Pittsburgh vs. Florida State University football game.

I have a list of games I plan to photograph this year, both college and NFL.  This is the first assignment on the list.  Pitt is launching its entry into the ACC by opening their season on national television (ESPN) against a great FSU football team.  I doubt Pitt can win this, but I’ll cheer for them away.  Regardless of the outcome, I plan to have a great time shooting the game from the sideline.  My goals for shooting the game:

1.     Don’t get hurt….I’ll be dodging players and the football

2.     Have fun!!

3.     Get some great photos

Preparing for tomorrow’s game, I looked back through some of the football pictures I took last season.  I came across this photo and thought I would share it with you.  This is of Cameron Saddler, who was a senior wide receiver for Pitt last year (his home town is Monroeville PA…which is right outside Pittsburgh).  I took this picture of him during the 2012 Pitt vs. Temple game last season.  Look for me as I run for my life tomorrow night.
