Do you think the passage of time and evolution of technology have changed the culture of the sport or the nature of the athletes? The sport has not changed; the ethos, the pathos of it all, is the same, but the advent of social media would make it impossible to do this "under the radar.
The players have been trapped in my negatives as these young, strong kids, and now to meet them as year-old men has been interesting to photograph. Did any of the young players wonder why there were two journalists following them around in that time period?
The players were so focused on winning and succeeding that I don't think they ever gave much thought to the project when we were in town — but after the season, the book, the movie, and the show, they understood that it was a pretty damn good piece of journalism, and they are happy that they were part of it.
