Truly Excited...But Beware the Trap Game

[thedoc85]

In my opinion , the whole conference is stupid.

31,000+ posts.

4 topics.

OK...lol...what are the 4 topics Rabble talks about? I can think of 3:

1) Joining a conference is stupid (with general rantings about scheduling)
2) I hate Notre Dame and Army should never play them (with general rantings about scheduling)
3) Back in my day / remember when (with general rantings about scheduling)
4) ?

I’m 100% in favour of player names that are readable for those watching TV. Names on the back are beneficial to fans. Some past years they did put names on the back. I’d love to see them return to doing this.

Especially when there’s 2-3 guys with the same numbers up And down the roster. I get the whole “Team over individuals” mantra, but there’s a way to convey that that still allows me to know who’s who on the field.

I guess the doc enjoys watching football in a great baseball stadium. Gee, those site lines are fantastic. I bought a ticket to that away game home at that Ruth didn't build (long gone in rubble) against the all powerful Irish jugger...whatever for 350 bucks. I couldn't even see the end zone. Go doc for this years Shamrock Flower Game and sit in left center field. Maybe you can see better than me.
Did you get your Z button fixed yet?

Number 4?

Well, I like to win

Number 5?
I like to be competitive in EVERY game we play. That excludes all semi-pro teams like Georgia, Alabama, Texas, Notre Dame and teams that pay out millions to players in the transfer portal. We can be such competitive with almost all other teams if we wanted to. The problem is we don't. We join sub-par conferences with no rivalries, no real interest but the money we will receive from a conference and the tv deals we get from them. We are losing our prestige with a big letter A on the front of our jersies and yet we don't put the names of the players on the back of the jersies to give the fans, yes the fans, the added enjoyment of knowing who is who while sitting in the stands.
Proving to me once again that the administration doesn't give a damn abot its fan base who actually attend a game or two or three. They will play without fans in the seats as long as the game is televised and thus bringing in the money. What do you know? They figured out that belonging in a conference just actually does that.
Who would have thunk it!!!

We put a teenie-weenie name on the front of the jersey with a lager conference logo also on the front , with the customary NIKE swoosh and on the back we put the word ARMY. What the hell, we all know its Army so what is the reason for that?
Put their names on the back so we know who is who and what is what !!

And how about a darker color gold on the pant with a black stripe on the outside of the pant and also a brighter gold on the helmet. Gee, we could put actual gold on the helmet like Notre Dame does.

You see guys, I can ACTUALLY talk about just three topics other than this poster says I can write about.
Maybe a 100 more? Sure. Being an Army fan for nearly 80 years gives me the experience of just doing that.

Its a perk that I believe I actually earned over the years.

Back in my day? True.
3 national championships
Number 2 in 1950
Number 3 in 1958
A half dozen Lambert Trophies.

Back in my day, things were pretty damn good.

You were fortunate. We were titans back then.

I didn't use the Z button----get your posters straight.

And while you're at it------turn off copy and paste so we don't have to read the same tired opinions day after day.
