The game pics were takin with a 550EX and a 70-200 f/2.8
ISO800 and some ISO1600
The lighting at our home filed is horrid, so i'd say it works fairly well.

What's your distance to the field ? You have to choose the focal length strictly by that criteria ... Is the 75-300 long enough for you ? Which focal lengths do you use more often - 100mm ? 200mm ? 300 mm ?

football? well, any prime at 400mm and above would be fine, for close action, 70-200 2.8 IS is THE glass to die for.
just from my shooting experience
