Okay, I know, I know. I'm in the middle of a "Vignette" but truthfully, when the Army-Navy game is on, everything is paused.
A superb outing by the Boat School. Singing second is the best.
I know, I was Air Force, my Dad and his Dad were Army, but all three kids were Navy, both sons-in-law are Navy, Big Time is still an aviator on active duty in the Navy, and Tuttle is a graduate of Annapolis, old retired aviator that he is. (Sorry about the "old" crack Tuttle, but that's what retirees are, old! 😎😉)
So yes, go Navy, beat Army ...
Which they did. In a big way.

Singing first is not the goal ...

Singing second is!!!

Horvath had a hell of a game, kid is a stud.

But this guy? Yup, the OAFS play of the game. Fake punt with a snap to the nose tackle on defense ...
What?
Yup, the nose tackle.
Who runs for a HUGE first down.
Being a big guy myself, I love to see the big guys carry the ball.
We'll get back to the woods with the tankers on Tuesday. Right now, it's basking in the glow of a Navy victory.
To my Army friends, especially the West Pointers - looking at you Jim (fellow tackle in high school) - better luck next year. You guys did have a helluva season and you've got nothing, repeat nothing, to be ashamed of.
Sometimes you get the goat ...
Sometimes the goat gets you.
I managed to watch the whole game. Usually I end up tuning in about half way through the 1st quarter. Even saw the "Prisoner Exchange." Which had me baffled until someone explained it. Nice bit of ceremony.
ReplyDeleteIt looked like USMA hired the Raiders play the game this year.
