Well the Navy continues to dominate this rivalry. With their 34-0 shutout victory earlier today the Navy has now won 7 in a row. Congrats to the Navy.
For me, it could have gone either way, really. This is one of my favorite sporting events to watch. The rivalry is more than a century old and these boys play hard. It is football as it should be, for fun. There is no need to impress recruiters, because these guys all know where they will be upon graduation...officers in the world's best military. The game is full of tradition and played for pride, as sports should be.
But, a shut-out!?! Come on Navy, you could have let them score a field goal at least!!!
I come from a family where both my grandfathers were in the Navy as were 2 uncles. My other uncle was an Army Ranger, and now I have lots of friends that are military, and most of them have gone into the Army. So, while I grew up rooting for the Navy, I'm now having to switch my allegiance to the Army. But, I cheer where my heart is!
CONGRATS NAVY and 2009 is going to be Army's year!!!
