It's a Bloody Shooting Gallery, I Tell Ya!!!

Way back in the old days...you know, about 5-10 years ago...we kept things simple. Football could be done easily with 8 cameras, baseball with 5 or 6, basketball with 4 or 5, tennis with 4 or 5, and boxing with 4. The one sport that really ate up cameras was golf - with 15-20 lenses covering mostly the back 9.

That was then, this is now. Thanks to improvements in RF technology we've got more cameras than Paris Hilton has handbags. For example, in golf we can now position cameras on all 18 holes, in the clubhouse, up the fairways, on the driving range, and a few mobile ones trekking across the links for good measure. If Tiger Woods picks his nose, by golly we'll get hi-def replays from 13 angles!

So now that we have this capability, I ask you the viewer: where would you like to see cameras positioned so that we show you a side of your favorite sport that you've never seen? What have you been missing out on? How can we better bring viewers onto the playing field, right into the heart of the action? C'mon, don't hold back - we've got 37 cameras trained on you right now as we await your response!
