When is the first Friday high school football game where you live? All star games and intrasquad games do not count.

My sons first game of the season is on the 28th and the school wants me to cover it but it is looking like my day job will have me doing an install in Pittsburgh at the old Heinz plant. The local youth league starts up on Saturday but I am more likely to be installing a can line in Rochelle IL instead...gotta pay the bills.

Last weekend was the High School Jamborees. The paper I string for already had their staff shooters lined up, so I got to relax one last time on a Friday night. So yeah, that's the 21st when HS Football starts up in my area.

No pads until Thursday, and a good portion of today's first practice was spent timing players in various speed and agility drills.

1st game date--this Friday, 8/28. Will be my first attempt at shooting HS football. Kind of nervous; Kind of excited too. Rigged up my monopod w/swivelhead ... not sure I'm liking a monopod rig since hand-holding is all I've ever done. Going to give it a try from the endzone with action inside the 20 yard line coming at me.
