Could use some advice from some working pros (photojournalist types)...

I am submitting the following portfolio to a few papers and could use some brutally honest feedback. The subject photos are very generic purposely... they are not in general, exciting shots, because of the request made (general photos for editorial use). So no, they won't be the most "artsy-fartsy" type shots that I personally like, but, maybe you could judge them on their own merit.... thanks.

I don't know anything about photojournalism, but my opinion is you have some really great shots. Nice job. Which lens was used on the tennis photos?

First... thanks Adam and SezzySue... tennis photos were the 70-200. 17-40 was used for the wide angle of the grandstands.

Thanks! :-) I'm also looking to trim it down a bit... so if there are any suggestions as to which ones should go, by all means, chime in on that too!
