"It's Better Than HD"

Lots to update: Iron Bowl, 2 murders this Sunday and well one happened...well

IRON BOWL
So I got to go to Tuscaloosa for work!! I left LATE Fri (after I got back from Decatur from Friday Night Football) Then Sat...to the game. I was walking onto the field with Ben, news director, and Stacy, Decatur photog, and they were talking about the atmosphere, the smell, the sounds, how the field looked "Better than HD!!"

I was stuck babysitting Auburn but b/c of it I got a GREAT shot of an Auburn reciever diving to catch the ball in the endzone...needless to say I was cursing that they scored while I continued to follow him to the ground..but hey that's part of the job. I apparently made network on that shot...rather (dan?), CBS was showing it from an angle where you can see me shooting it :)
Then in post, Tommy gave a very good winner's speech..he did get tounge tied trying to say grab the bull by the horns and said something to the effect of "he took the bull under his horns...or he took the horns *pause* he took the ball under his arm!! Heck I'm allowed to say anything I want to, I just won 5 straight!!" That was pretty funny..even if I'm a Bama fan.

Then hung out with some friends..Brock and Nix...both of whom I have links to thier blogs...shop talk mostly but catching up a little and just all around good fun after a hard day.

WORK SUNDAY
Went to Florence today for a murder...this guy was robbing a boat house and owner came out and started shooting and got shot himself and died...police were withing seconds from the scene when the shots were fired so able to get the suspect.

aparently while we were there, there was a murder in Huntsville...like the 3-4th since I moved here in May...less than one a month. Well anyway I was watching a competing station now since I've gone home (they both went on late) and saw one talking about my apartment complpex...saw VIDEO of my apartment complex and a van that has a dog painted on it (for invisible fences) that sits right out back of me...so apparently this wife shot her man who later died at the hospital...wow so close to home...I feel stupid for not having the story espcially happening out by back balcony, but that the price we paid for having our only crew in Florence when that happened at 1:30-ish.
