    Just out of curiosity, did the receiver in #4 walk away? That looks like a direct shot to the ahem........

    Nice work! That shot of the receiver is classic.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Thanks for the comments all.

    Actually that receiver is on defense. The intended receiver is to his left out of frame. I wish I would have taken one more shot, which had him bent over the tackler. He did go down hard, but got right back off and came off the field. It wasn't until he got to the sidelines that he began walking slowly with a slight limp.
