    the line has moved to Army -7.5.  I would never bet on this game, and my guess Is it’ll End within a TD.
    You trying to back out of the bet we already made? Typical Army behavior. Turn tail and run when the sledding gets tough. 
    Never bro.  A friendly wager between my friends that swing from other side of the plate so to speak is one of the things that makes this week that much better.

    Doesn't matter the record, when Navy wins this one that's an instant .500 season right there.  Gonna be fun. 


    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Yah, us right handed batters must seem strange to you switch hitters.

    Call me what you will but, I still get teared up during The National Anthem. I call it respect for brothers and sisters that died freedoms that we all enjoy.
    And with that I say...ok scream.
    Go Navy Beat Army!
    But, whoever wins it's truly my favorite game of the year 🇺🇸

    True Blake and it’s great to have you chime in. 

    Theres nothing like a National anthem at the A/N game. 

    The alma maters always get me a little misty too.

    I'm not an IFNAG (NROTC) but I did spend 27+ years in the USN.  I recall growing up many decades ago; everything came to a halt in the household (grandfahter WWI, father WWII, both no judgement-Army) and then time to watch the game.  The first game changer I recall is Joe Bellino, so yes I am old.  But as noted by @thetrim this game transcends the schools and hopefully always will.  Probably more than you needed to know.

    We lived off MREs after Katrina.  FYI - years later, found a few in the pantry, tried one and it was more revolting than it should have been.  They do not age well.  The heater packs make for great practical jokes.

    I spent my 20 years as enlisted slime, but had the chance to watch the game from my company’s luxury box back in 2011 I think when they played at FedEx Field, and have been hooked since.

    @CTMike - no such thing as enlisted slime.  Team effort especially running submerged and undetected-which was and still is the norm.
    Sounds like quite a reward from your company.

    Had one particular JO Academy Grad who treated enlisted folks as such. Was doing the shutdown as EWS, he was the EOOW. As soon as the shutdown check off was complete, he said “Set Condition 1 watches.” I requested to enter, and calmly informed him that only the CO could grant that permission. His reply was “Shut your mouth Chief.” I said “Aye Sir,” and went forward. Engineer saw me on the mess decks and asked what was up. Give him the rundown, he told me to get my butt back in the Engine Room. He then proceeded to maneuvering and dragged the JO (who had been relieved by the duty section JO) to the CO’s stateroom for some one way counseling.
