That's exactly what I was thinking. Maybe I'll have to go find a soccer game.
Here's my favorite from last year:

Time to hit the bowling alley or set up the checkers board...
This is the worst pain EVER!

On a serious note, given the holidays and the short time frame of this MPC (12 days), would the OP be open to stretching it out a bit??
Tis a busy time of year for most people...This is the worst pain EVER!

My Mother in law wants her granddaughter (my kid) to go to the Celtics home opener next week, and she needs a adult to go with her and thats me. Can't wait to try out the new lens at the Garden and get some "Action Sports".

Sorry Tuckerman, but there's no action involved in an NBA game. You might want to try a Bruins game instead.

I know my mothers-in-laws connections are b-ball fans so I take what I can get. FWIW they are 4-5 rows off the floor right behind the c bench.

What lens? I know arenas can flip out over 70-200s and stuff like that.
I like b-ball myself, never really got into football, but that's probably 'cause I'm from a city with a basketball team that's won championships half the years I've been alive but hasn't had a football team since I was like 9. (LA)
I shoot "action sports" all year (auto racing), but there aren't much in the way of events in the winter unfortunately, so I don't think I'll be able to enter this one.

generally if there is a ban it is on anything with a removable lens.

hmmm - 3 entries in almost 10 days
This is TGR right? I know many of us are waiting for snow but there are lots of other games out there. Chime in if this is a dud theme, you need more time or Christmas just has you bound up.

Thanks Steve. Your comment on FB about original stuff after the first day really made me take a look at how I wanted to shoot the rest of it. Just applied for my credentials for the X Games.

I like that third shot Gregger, and I'm envious of all that nice lookin over the head powder. For now I'll have to settle for the sugary below the knee kind. It could be better around here, but it could also be much worse.
Here's my first entry.
