From the Endlines: Saying goodbye to heroes and legends

There’s a saying in sports which, unfortunately, rings true: Father Time is undefeated. I have the privilege of being on the sidelines for most of the games, giving me an opportunity that most others don’t: to get up close and personal.

Photographing legends who play on other teams is a perk, no doubt, but I still have a job to do. Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, Kaká, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Landon Donovan — the list goes on. I always make sure to get one or two photos, but I’m usually so dialed into the game that there’s no time to think about sentimental stuff.
