“Dallas Cowboys Tight End Jason Witten Makes Critical Reception Against The New York Giants In The Fourth Quarter With Less Than A Minute Left In The Game. The Reception Led To Dallas’s Winning Field Goal 23-20.”
DH is a HUGE Jason Witten fan. Jason went to the University of TN, which is also where DH went ~ so he feels an affinity for the dude. Besides, almost everything else we have in the house with the Cowboys on it is my stuff. LOL I did buy him a Witten jersey for last Father’s Day, though...so at least he isn’t borrowing my jerseys now!

My boys watched this season of football with their dad and it was the first time they really understood and got into the game. The huge bonus was that Jeff Feagles was Robbie’s football coach and the Giants actually winning the Superbowl just capped off a great season. Having a photo from the Superbowl would be a great way to remember it!

Yogi Berra and Reggie Jackson throw out first pitch.
My Dad is a huge Yankee’s fan. He had a ton of old baseball cards from when he was a kid that is worth a lot of money now. Except that ten or so years ago he went up in Grandma’s attic to get them and they are gone. We figure Grandma must have thrown them out years ago while cleaning.

Derek Jeter making a double play.
My husband is a huge Yankees’ fan and in trying to teach our children about great sportsmanship along with great play, he always mentions Jeter as a class act. There are wonderful photos on the site!

Oh darn it. I just selected my print only to discover that you’re shipping only to the “continental” U.S. Sigh. Penalized again for living in the beautiful state of Alaska. Little known fact: the United States Post Office (and all the other guys) delivers to Alaska and it doesn’t even cost that much more!
Oh well. I enjoy your site alot.

“Ben Roethlisberger Hands Off To Jerome Bettis.”
Hubby is a huge Steelers fan. Well, a huge Football fan period. Before we were married, he says to me… “I don’t watch that much Football, just the Steelers and Oregon Ducks.” Okay… that was a downright fib! He watches all Football… nearly all sports! Eeeeeek.
This print would look lovely on my bedroom wall next to his other Football prints. Um… yes, I did say on my bedroom wall.
Someday maybe we will have a sports room… all for him!

My Dad ( actually my children’s dad) and my husband is the number one Washington Redskin Fan. He sticks with them through the good times and the bad times. I knew I was in trouble when he had to watch them during our honeymoon 20 years ago!!!
He would dearly love the Washington Redskins Chris Coolie scores in play of the game photo.
Thanks for such a great contest on Father’s Day!!
