Pedestrian birder in Chicago. Click on #birds tag to see just my bird photos without the whinging. I'm also sharing bird links using the #BirdLinks tag. I'm embarrassed by my typos but usually not enough to delete them. Gear: OM1 & OM 150-400 & 100-400

I love how the NFL, a multi-billion dollar sports industry, with the jockest of all jocks doing metaphorical battle, always comes down the incredibly nerdy epistemological question of "How do we know a pass is a completion?"
