Sweetness

Walter Payton, a running back for the Chicago Bears football team, was known as "Sweetness" for his moves carrying the football. This was a screen capture of my television during a game Chicago played against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. For this photo, I remember that the local newspaper in my town had loaned me one of their telephoto lenses because they used a Minolta like I did. This was taken at a distance from my TV and zoomed in on just part of the screen.
