One of the Greatest Spectacles in all of Sports
shall take place again this coming Saturday at 14:00. It is a game of American football, pitting our nation's two oldest service academies against each other: The Midshipmen of the Naval Academy vs. the Army Black Knights of Westpoint. it is a rivalry going back a century. If you have never watched this game, you are in for a treat. If you want to know a little bit about what America is, at its very best, I humbly submit you watch. Either way, the good guys win.

A great tradition. My father used to take me as a kid every year. First, in the old Meadowlands, then to Veteran's Stadium.
Can't say I root for either team, just live the rivalry, the pageantry and the tradition. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I couldn't agree more about this game. And they are flipping the coin that JFK would have used in 1963.
Point is, this is a game, but these people have made a commitment to put their lives on the line for their country for 4 years of military service after they graduate. Puts this game in an entirely different perspective.
