My teammate took this picture at our football practice yesterday and I thought it was pretty cool. It was pretty hard to balance the rainbow on the tip!

Ironically, there is a pot of gold at the Holocaust Museum.

I saw it on FB. It looks really cool when it's larger.

That's a great photo, but I want to hear more about this football team! Do you have a league? I know you were a basketball player in college, but how long have you been playing football?

OMG! That rainbow has been impaled, or my name isn't Roy G Biv!

It's a co-ed alumni flag football league. I have been playing with this team for ten years but I have played pickup football (read: no pads, no insurance, no pay, tackle football) since I was a kid. It's a cool league where alumni from colleges from all over the country get teams together and play football/basketball/volleyball/softball. I even remember playing during the DC sniper time. I figured there couldn't have been a safer place to be out in the open than the White House ellipse.

Great photo...don't mean to belittle the accomplishment...but it probably wasn't all that hard to take.

Nice comment...don't mean to resort to name-calling...but only an asshole would say that.

It's all about being in the right place at the right time. It's a great picture.

I suppose the photo of the plane being flown into the tower wasn't all that hard to take either. Or the little girl running naked through the street in Viet Nam. Or the soldier dipping the nurse for that Victory kiss. Or the student crying on her knees at Kent State. What the hell, someone just hurriedly snapped those pictures, after all!

This is an amazing photo and that was a ridiculous comment. Sometimes not only lenses need filters.

They're all easy if you know the answer. Oh wait, I'm thinking of game shows. Nice photo, PKS.

Wow!

Just plain old WOW!

No, wait, there is more.

I am impressed and in awe.

Holy Crappola Batman.

When I was way younger, I had this fantasy that my husband would do those things and I would spend evenings and weekends at various 'ballpark' places rooting him on.

Neither husbands came even close to wanting to or being able to.

Wow!

You are a piece of work in a totally different way.

Like opposite way.

I wish I had thought of and said that.
