Not bad at all considering the outfit, Ric! Football is hard to shoot, much 
more difficult than baseball or basketball where most of the action is in a 
well-defined area (basket/home base/pitching mound) or American football 
which one writer (I forgot who) described as 30 seconds of committee meeting 
followed by 5 seconds of action or something like that.

As for color balance issues, my solution is extremely simple--when in doubt, 
convert to B&W and rationalize it to the viewers using esthetic/artistic 
considerations ;-)

Cheers,
Nathan
