Love seeing the President there and visiting the teams in the locker rooms!

What an experience for those players.


That Navy QB is having a heck of a running game.

Well of course Go Navy!

Watching the game my wife commented on how clean cut both the Army and Navy students looked. It is refreshing. These are our next military leaders and it seems we are in good hands.

Well, of course they are, but absolutely, we are in good hands.

Sure is great not seeing the hot doging or tribal dances when a play is made. I only root foe the service academies, Just give the ball bak to the ref and huddle up.

Of course I am rooting for West Point.
Always.

But it is nice to see clean cut looking athletes.

A rough day for Army's Offense and Defense.
Soooooooooooo.

The Navy Quarterback has 25 rushes for 267 yards

Army's Quarterback and running backs combined have about 96 yards.

Rough..

Navy's QB is on fire.

Great to see the competition and the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy come home where it belongs.

GO NAVY, BEAT ARMY!

Looking over the student sections at pre-game when Trump came in it looked like a few didn’t enjoy his presence. I suppose that is everywhere though. No signs of disrespect that I could see.

Looked like a little jaw jacking between some of the teams right before the Alma Maters. Got to be expected with all the emotions.

Oh. And the Army Officer’s new dress uniforms look pretty good. Decent re-tooling of a WWII era dress uniform.

Great tradition!!!!!

Navy sings last...
The Navy Blue and Gold...



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

"The goat is old and gnarly and he’s never been to school. But he can steal the bacon from the worn out Army mule.

He’s had no education but he’s brimming for a fight and Bill will feed on Army mule tonight.

Army, Army call the doctor. Army, Army call the doctor.

Army, Army call the doctor, you’re all in down and out.

Beat Army, sir!"

These uniform changes are ridiculous. In 1982 the BDUs came out. The clothing allowance didn’t cover the two sets were required. Then the things could only be dry cleaned. In 2004 they chose the ACU, which I heard wasn’t one of the final selects but.. They then replaced the Class A greens with the dress blues. Why? Who goes to work in a tux.

Now it’s retro. At the game one General was wearing a “50 mission crush hat” please. Saw one photo of a group of models and their hats look like South American generals.

Yeah, the CNO tried it about 10 years back - large uniform evaluation boards, trying to make 'business cases' to change. Then they started tests with he and others parading around in "Service Dress Khakis" for his last 4 years - straight out of the 60s uniform shop. Finally cancelled it.



He was a douchenozzle anyway.
