Anyone else get tired of hearing about the service academies?

    You may be right. I've had plenty of friends that served including my best friend whom past away years ago.

    I think that we are just saying that there isn't much of a reason to ignore the actual football game itself. We aren't hating on the kids or anything. Still they haven't served any more time, the students that is unless someone jumped in after their tours, than anyone else. A football game shouldn't be broadcast that way IYAM. Say how proud you are in the first couple of minutes and then actually get back to calling the game.

    You realize most the kids who play on these teams eventually end up in some type of high speed/special warfare unit right? (minus the lineman). I don't care if the announcers want to talk about them the whole game. They've signed that contract and taken that oah to do wwhat they have to do...

    Btw having friends that served doesn't give you any more leverage in any argument.

    I attended a service academy for two reasons........

    1.) A free education that is second to none.

    2.) Free, all expense paid travel to foreign countries where I could meet and interact with interesting people and then kill their curry smelling, Allah worshiping asses.

    For that, my tax paying American brothers, I thank you.

    Life is good.

    Ok, check it, i have a few issues with your post. First of all, who cares whether or not someone is in a 'high speed' unit or not. They made the commitment to serve. It doesn't matter whether you are AG, Finance, a SWO, or a Swab, you still make the sacrifices everyone else makes. Second of all, get rid of your signature. If you want to put something up identifying that you serve or served, by all means, but dont throw your name/rank out there. If you want to find out why, just do a quick search on google on the info you provide just through your signature.

    Ok first, I'm not an idiot. Go search for my name and rank... 2n , your telling me the sacrifices of a office worker is the same as some one who serves on the front lines? I don't think so...
