You obviously have never had a Pitty, mine has NEVER been aggressive, and another fun fact the moon is made of green cheese…

Had a 386, all I can remember

shot high school football where the light is not very good with a Nikon d500 it is not an issue at all, and 10fps make it easy, you can crank up the iso and shoot a minimum of 500th a second, always...

Going from a d50 to a 5600 is like going from a pinto to a Maserati, it will vastly improve your photography. I went to a d500 from a d700, it changed me as a photographer...

You go online and “find” press credentials, you are looking for problems if caught such as being banned from the venue for life, going to jail etc. I am a pro freelance photographer and someone on the sidelines of say a football game that doesn’t know what is expected of him is not only recognized quickly but can get himself or someone else hurt. Research the venue and “ find” the correct person to get credentials.

I shoot only in raw as well

I use HDR in shooting Real Estate always, manual everything always, iso 320,ap 7.1shutter varies obviously, I shoot Million $ + homes, learn to use only manual settings with your camera it will change your life as a photographer.
