Finally, I am through editing and uploading the pictures from both of my NFL games. I'm just learning to work with my new camera, but I'm really happy with how good these came out with us sitting so high up. |

And... some of my favorites     Air Force Flyover - would have liked to have got a better picture, but they surprised me  My brother-in-law, my sister and my friend Nick  Jonathan Stewart giving a fan the ball after his long TD run  I was amazed at how close the buildings were to the stadium, it looked like you could just reach out and touch them.  This is the goon that lead the wave instead of watching the game Blame it on the a... a... al ;D  They hammered Ryan all day    This is the MIB... sporting my Spiller jersey and autographed Jake Delhomme hat (from Bella)  Williams and Stewart doing their celebration after Stewart sealed the game with a 40 yard TD (I got it blurry, but I love the celebration  Jason Elam  Top Cats  Smith and Moose after Muhammad's long catch  |

Awesome pics!! It's always fun to look at things like these. Those were some high quality pictures for being up so high! Atlanta recently cut Jason Elam. it's a shame. He's my favorite kicker. I wish Denver would pick him back up, but now Prater is finally kicking decently.  That had to have been awesome. |

Thanks J. Really a photographer's mini heaven going to those games. I was afraid they wouldn't let me take my camera in, but they didn't bother with it at all. The guy that checked us was more interested in my toboggan I had in my pocket, I have no idea what he thought it was. ;D
I know what you mean about looking at stuff like this. I've looked at them a zillion times and I've gotten near a thousand hits on the galleries just in a week or so of them being up. Heck, just the pictures I put in there of the Panthers training camps have thousands of hits. Us football junkies just eat that stuff up I guess.
Truthfully, when I go to things like that I usually enjoy the whole experience like the look and layout of the stadium, how stuff is set up and then what happens after the game/event is over. I am easily amused though.
And I don't know what happened with Elam. He seemed to be doing OK that day. He had one blocked, but I couldn't see any fault on his part. Isn't he the one that has part of the longest field goal record?

They allowed the camera in when I went to the Broncos game. (Obviously  ) They went ape sh!t when they noticed we had Gatorades, though. We drank 2 and gave away the rest to people just hanging out. They were pretty greatful. It was slightly hot that day. Yeah, Elam kicked a 63 yarder in the 1998 Season to tie Tom Dempsey (the guy with a steel foot... Literally!). The way the kick went, he could've made it from about 67. The guy had one hell of a foot in his prime. He wanted to finish his career in Atlanta, his home town, so he went there after a few contracts with Denver. I'm hoping Denver picks him back up. He was awesome! |

I was watching that game on TV, I just couldn't remember for sure if it was Elam. My favorite Denver kicker was David Treadwell, another Clemson great. He kicked a lot of 3 pointers for us down here.

I may be mistaken, but I believe David Treadwell is the all-time franchise leader in points for Denver.

Just looked into it, Jason Elam is the all-time points leader for Denver. Haha. Apparently Elam was cut because he only made about 8 or 9 out of 15 past 30 yards. Unfortunately, it looks like he's done.  |
