"Mr. Cantafio was severely injured as a result of a sideline collision Sept. 30 at John Henzes/Veterans Memorial Stadium in Blakely during Prep’s football game against Valley View. He was taken from the field by ambulance to a hospital where he remained until his death."

I hope the multi-tasking mom who had a child in a harness on her front and back reads this.

Care to elaborate on the "multi-tasking mom" comment.

I'll assume a brain hemorrhage. Same way a seemingly simple ski fall can kill you. Sad, big time.

There was a big kerfuffle over this story
http://petapixel.com/2016/09/13/viral-photo-shows-mom-photographer-shooting-two-kids-tow/

Some declared her Supermom. Others declared her Supermoron.

Now I understand. I never was exposed to the story about the mom, I was trying to figure out how a multi-tasking mom fit into this persons death.

Yes, that is the story I was referring to.

It is safe on the sidelines, but people, especially people seeing the world through a view finder need to be aware of their surroundings.

Very sad that the person died from their injuries but you do have to pay very close attention to the play on the field when photographing from the sidelines of high school, college or pro football.

I do see trainers, statisticians, reporters and " non-essential staff " (every week) standing too close to the safety zones along the sidelines at all levels of American football and they are not watching the action on the field as they should be.

You do need to stay mobile and alert and be ready to take evasive action and anyone who has photographed football has had a close call or seen one and in some instances may have been involved in a sideline collision.

If her husband was not associated with the team, would the children be allowed on the sidelines? I've shot some HS football and don't recall ever seeing children that age allowed on the sidelines.

how much risk can you expose infants to until it becomes child abuse?

- hot car
- no safety seat
