America's game

oh Trent Steelman, hold your head up son, the Nation feels your pain.....in what may have been the greatest game in this storied rivalry, the squids prevailed yet again....that's 11 in a row for those of you keeping score at home....but certainly wiothout question , ARMY should have won this game.....not that I am selling Navy & Coach Ken short, we rose to the occasion, we found a way...we prevailed.......but Oh Army.....how did you find a way to loose this game.?.......i was very happy to see coach Niamatulolo search out and comfort Army Senior QB Steelman....this kid was inconsolable, it had to tug at your heartstrings to watch......they were going in for the winning score and he fumbled on the 10..........as coach Ken would tell the sideline "Those guys in black Jerseys are Tough Suckers" and he meant that with the utmost respect.....this rivalry really does transend life, this is so much more than a football game.....for Navy it's on to San Francisco and a bowl game with Arizona State.....for Army ?? well for the 11th straight year the Black Knights limp back to West Point on the loosing end, come June; for the 8th straight year they will graduate a class of seniors that have never Beaten Navy, have never hoited the CIC or got to sing their alma mater last....and on this day, even the squids feel your pain.....Hang in their Army...Keep the Faith!



Now college men from sea to sea

May sing of colors true,
But who has better right than we
To hoist a symbol hue?
For sailor men in battle fair
Since fighting days of old,
Have proved a sailor's right to wear
The Navy Blue and Gold.

BEAT ARMY!!
