Here is a review that doesn't come up easily on search engines.
I think I am going to get one of these for sports. I would feel better sticking with Canon but they don't make a lens with this spec.

The good news for everyone else is that once I buy one Canon will come out with a similar lens.

Get a monopod, too. They're heavy!

I second the monopod suggestion. You WILL need it.
Here is my take on the lens

Wazza has that lens, I'm sure he'll post what he thinks of it. It looks like a killer lens.

Thanks Dmwierz, hadn't seen the press-photos review.
I am having problems with the $, seems a bit excessive not for the lens but for me.
If I pull the trigger I will get a mono pod as well.
