“Photography, precisely because it can only be produced in the present and because it is based on what exists objectively before the camera, takes its place as the most satisfactory medium for registering objective life in all its aspects, and from this comes its documental value. If to this is added sensibility and understanding and, above all, a clear orientation as to the place it should have in the field of historical development, I believe that the result is something worthy of a place in social production, to which we should all contribute.” IfsShouldBelieveValuesI BelieveSocialUnderstandingResultsClearFieldsDevelopmentPhotographyAspectShould HaveCamerasHistoricalProductionsWorthyObjectivesMediumsSensibilityOrientation Author:Tina Modotti

“The two biggest things to understand when you're tracking the ball as a defensive back is your position on the field and understanding that once the ball is in the air you become the receiver. Too many young defensive backs worry about the receiver catching it or what the receiver is doing instead of focusing on what they should be doing. Just go out and make the play yourself, don't worry about him. Know where the ball is and attack it. Put yourself in position to bat it or catch it and make the play.” KnowsShouldTwoPlayYoungUnderstandingWorryAirFieldsPositionBallsBatsCatchingReceiverTrackingDefensive Backs Author:Antonio Cromartie

She said, "She's sick, and she was told by our manager that she would have to walk across the football field when the game was over in the mud and try to find a limo, so she made the decision that she couldn't do that."
