->> Wow! There's little room for freelancers in the past couple of years but apparently there is plenty of room for contest winners this year.

When you click on the link it takes you to this Canon page:
http://www.usa.canon.com/app/html/NFL/slap.html?team=cowboys

I tried substituting a few other NFL team names for cowboys in the URL... most didn't work, but patriots, jets, giants, chargers, redskins, seahawks and dolphins did. I'm sure I missed a few.

->> Wait til they put on the vest. That'll turn anyone away from wanting to win.

If you win you get a t-shirt that says "I won a contest to shoot like a pro and all I got was this lousy t-shirt and a funky smell from an unwashed vest thats given me some weird rash."

That might be too long for the shirt.

->> Actually no working professional will be allowed on the sideline while these winners are on the field.

I'm waiting for the contest where they ask women to 'Cheer like pro'. Can you imagine the amateurs as Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders in their own swim suit issue. Grin.

Soon all the Dallas hospitals will have contests 'Wield a scalpel like a pro'.

->> did you read the small print? I liked that
"field access is restricted in time, length and duration by the dallas cowboys". I can see it now some poor GWC is shooting away and having a really great time and the bouncer goons come up on both sides and go "your 15 minutes of fame are up. you're outta here!" oh wait.....that's me they do that to....nevermind.

->> I had a "photographer" in full Duck regalia bump my camera in the endzone as he raised his arms cheering during a touchdown last night.

Another "photographer" set up about four feet inside the line on a goal line stand blocking my view of the corner. Luckily, I had him flushed before the play started.

With Oregon handing out photo passes like candy, their new diode lit signage in the endzones, it's a horrible place to shoot.

How's the time limit work, is it like a concert - first three downs, no flash? Then you're out...
