I've been wanting to watch since it started but the Nashville CBS station is more concerned with sensationalism of some local weather for the last hour.... I'm not one to call a TV station and complain but I finally just left them a voicemail sensationalizing my consternation

I liked the NIL the Army gives. You get a chance to blow things up, jump out of aircraft and fly helicopters/ And get paid for it!!!!

The impressive thing is these guys get waivers for weight standards while they are playing but they must make weight to graduate in May. So if you are. 280lb lineman you may have to get down around 200lbs (depending on your height) between when the season ends and graduation. That's why you won't see many big lineman at service academies.

Yeah that'd be tough but these young men are so disciplined. Talk about structure man they've got serious structure at the academies!

There's a tornado outbreak. I'm watching it happen live on Ryan Hall YouTube channel. It's headed towards Nashville area. While I would love to be watching the game too, we are in the crosshairs this time.

Army-Navy game was at the top of my bucket list for years. Wife and I finally went in 2006 when it was in Philly. Incredible experience and atmosphere!! I would encourage everyone to go to at least one A/N game. Go Navy!!
