A WIN?

The final score in the Army Navy football game showed that Navy won, but, in reality, I question whether anyone really won.

Some of the indicators were: There were far too many penalties in the game on both sides which is indicative of poor performance by the coaches and the teams; Both teams depended upon individual star performances by a very small group of players (Navy QB, Army Receiver [at 6' 10"] a significant mismatch with the defense); Unbecoming antics by a few players which is typical of other college teams when they proclaimed their abilities through inordinate grandstanding; Unusual exhibits by the Cadets and Midshipmen watching the game by wearing unusual outfits , playing stupid games, and showing poor sportsmanship attitudes.

And one of the most notable deficiencies of the contest was the absence of the President from the stands not to mention complete silence by the White House about the game. This alone tends to demonstrate the President's feelings towards our Military.
