Barden One Handed Catch

TrueBlueMike : 8/8/2009 8:42 pm
Most of my pictures are really dark from the afternoon practice today...so it is going to take me awhile to get them edited.

I did want to post these though.









When I get back home I will post the best pictures from the entire week at their highest quality for everyone. It may take a little bit of time though.

It is a Quantary Lens my parents got when they got their original dslr several years ago from Ritz Cameras. I think the camera was a Pentax ist and I bought that original equipment from them.

The lens can probably be considered a cheapo lens as I don't see many reviews of quantary lenses at all. I have always been able to get some decent shots out of it though.
where in the world

would that pass have gone if Barden didnt act like he was 13 feet tall? being out of reach is one thing, but that pass was just way too high...
blak

I think they were working on endzone fades, if i read the reports correctly.

isn't the point to use Barden's size if he has the mismatch? It's not like it was a 13' high pass to Moss or Manningham.
i understand using the mismatch  
blakjedi : 8/12/2009 1:58 pm : link
but wind or a bump by the DB could change the outcome of that pass very easily... im just saying
good lord

what is this, Braveheart? Can he shoot thunderbolts from his arse?

It's an incredible catch, but he's not 4 feet above the port-a-john, nor is he 12 feet in the air.

Can we ease up on the hyperbole just a bit?

You can make out Barden's lower leg from the kneecap-down between the guy in the red shirt's arm. If you try to use that to extrapolate how far he is off the ground, I'd guess he's no more than two feet off the ground.

Someone said that the guy has a 33.5" vertical at a combine wearing shorts and jumping off turf. Here he has cleats on, on grass, jumping with pads and a helmet, while focusing more on timing the jump rather than getting as high as possible.

Again, amazing catch, but some of the exaggeration here is too funny.
Now that is something I'd like to see

Moss bringing in a 13 foot pass. His feet would be above Woodson's head.
More importantly

Who is that broad wandering off in the fuschia?
The legend of the one handed catch begins
