Experimented with 200-400 f4 compared to 400 f2.8 still like the 400 f2.8 even though the 200-400 was more flexible.

There is a lot to be said for flexibility when you are covering sports with up and down field action happening so quickly. However as you point out it's tough to beat a lens like a 400 f2.8. Nice job on these I really like 2 and 4, great action.

I always have trouble resizing. Can anyone recommend the best way to resize for posting?

Some of the pics like the one in this thread lose some of their sharpness and resolution.

I have a Macbook Pro and have Photoshop 4 suite but use Aperture most of the time. The resizing I did in this example was done with a free version of Picasa. You can see the big difference between the pic in the original posting and the later one. It's all been hit and miss and multiple trys.
