Andrews, Photographer Mobile | AL | USA | Posted: 5:54 PM on 11.02.09 ->> Did any of our California shooters witness the security guard hitting Chris Park's camera with a helmet as JaMarcus Russel was leaving? According to the caption on the wire photo, the guard hit the photographer's camera with the helmet. Just curious... - GMA  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Seems like AP needs to contact the front office!  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

The way things are going for him in Raiderland it might be the only job he can get before long.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

If it were me, I'd be filing a police report simply for the insurance/damages to the camera. Beyond that, it makes me grateful that i don't have to cover the Oakland Raiders.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

The last two games I shot I was told to 1:"be behind the line or in the parking lot". & 2: "You are in the impact zone". Some people with a little authority are just little people in heart & brain. As if it is not hard enough out there already.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

The guy did indeed swing a helmet into my face while I was shooting. It was not at all out protection. The guy was obviously just a sore loser. I was standing at the entrance to the tunnel shooting raiders leaving the field. As Jamarcus came through I was able to get just those two frames as I was shooting a SLOW 5D. The guy actually took a step to the side just to reach me with the helmet. Only other proof I have is a bent lens hood on my 14mm. Thanks for the comment Jody!! Cheers, Chris  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
