Could anybody ID this sunfish?:

The picture is terrible.
It's from a local forum of people who don't really deal with native fish much... just post it here and I'll pass it on.
thanks.

You probably should have come here in the first place 
It is unanimous here: it is a green sunfish. A nice-looking specimen. They are great in tanks, but you were well-advised on the other forum: you will definitely need a bigger tank, a 10 is much too small for this fish.

Thanks guys. It's not my fish. I just knew it wasn't a bluegill, and knew few of the local guys would come up with the right answer.
I thought there was some red on its earflap, and I thought greens didn't have that. I need to work on my sunfish skills.

The people on that forum need to go outside more often.....
I could of told you that wasn't a bluegill or a pumpkinseed when I was 6.
People are still argueing that it is something either then a green, Ignorence.

I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be rude, I just thought that was funny.
