Martavis

Tonight’s post is a throwback to 2018.  This is Martavis Bryant in 2017 before he was traded to the Raiders.  Shortly after getting to Raiders he dramatically hurt his career by getting an indefinite suspension for violating the NFL’s drug policy…. At this point, he hasn’t been reinstated yet.  Extremely sad since he is talented.

AB's Departure

Well its official.  Antonio Brown is being traded from the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Oakland Raiders.  He’s taking his extremely good football skills and over-heated ego to the west coast.  He was also quick with his giant smile.  It was fun watching him play over the last seven years while I covered the team.  I wish him the best.

Ready For The Playoffs???

How about it?  Are you ready for this weekend’s NFL Playoff games?  I am!!  I have all my camera gear ready for the Steelers vs. Jaguars game.  The big question for the Steelers is whether or not Antonio Brown will play.  I took this photo of him a few games ago.  I hope you have a good week and weekend.

Dez

How’s your summer going?  Mine has been extremely busy and at this point it will be over before I can enjoy it.  Anyway, tonight’s post is of Dez Bryant.  I took this photo last season when the Cowboys were in Pittsburgh.

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.

All Smiles, All The Time

I don’t think I’ve ever been around someone who smiles as much as Antonio Brown.  Seriously, every time I see him in person prior to games, during the games, between plays, during plays, after the games, etc….  He is always smiling! 

Either he is a huge fake, which I doubt, or he just enjoys his life.  I can’t claim to be his friend, we’ve exchanged words in short interactions, but he doesn’t even know my name.  But my gut tells me he’s just a good guy, who is always happy.  And my gut is usually right.
