WHO WON (2)?

As an add on to my previous post, I offer this observation. The enhanced insignificance of the Army Navy football game (2009) is evident by the facts that: The game was not advertised prior to the contest; The results earned a 1/4 column entry on page 7 of the Sunday Arizona Republic Newspaper that contained very little beyond the final score; And the big important article on page 1 showed the results of a High School football game (with pictures) and a story about an ASU baseball coach who was fired or maybe he resigned. Certainly the High School story deserved recognition but...

So, my friends, it further illustrates the distain that the media has for our military and how much it is biased towards the President and present Democratic administration. In an earlier era, the Army Navy game commanded much more extensive pre and post game hype. Given time, the present Administration may even be able to have the game cancelled as being insignificant and could be a good cost saving move.

After that, we could have the football programs at the Academies deleted thereby even bigger cost savings. While we are at it, why not eliminate the Academies and recruit future military officers from Ivy league schools? And possibly the University of Illinois as well!
