We just know, he's called the Photodude. |

->> "They are often unlikable and curmudgeonly, but they have seen a lot and made the transition from drawing on cave walls to shooting tintypes to digital."

| ->> There is one exception to the cheerleader rule and that's a certain NFL team that shall remain nameless that apparently fields quite a few, um, "exotic dancers". They're still not interested in you, but they have been known to direct you to where you can see them on a Friday night. |

->> Excellent advice for ALL Pro and "Wanna-be-Pro" photographers.
I would just like to add two more points...
If you are first at the media centre, it would be very helpful to all if you could take a little time to make sure all the necessary equipment is in place such as enough chairs,tables,power bars,router, cables,wireless password, etc.. If not call the media or team personnel who can make it happen.
One last thing would be the team lineups...offer to go get them. |

That questions was already answered in the article (although technically, it was for reporters):
"you must shop at the Big and Fat Mans shop to get a credential" |
