The gadsden flag is cool too, it's just too bad that members of a political party have tried to hijack it, but that is a conversation for another day.

Navy has far and away, the best Uni's

I wondered why I had been seeing this flag everywhere lately. Maybe I am one of those stupid people Gruber was talking about

The academies have boosters and other revenue streams like every other school. The public doesn't subsidize academy athletics.

And even if they were...that would probably amount to all of .0000001 cents for each citizen. Calm down gents.

Yes, I believe that's the party's official logo. ;-)

I really like the uniforms, but I just wish that the slogan hadn't been so politicized...

Other than using military aircraft for travel...I think that is correct.

Well, the public subsidizes the scholarships too, since we pay for it completely. But travel on military planes is used by all the cadets for whatever purpose, so I don't see a problem with it. Point being that things like uniforms and coaches salaries aren't on the taxpayer dime.

As much as I like new unis (I do like these BTW), I think CFB needs to trend back to the every week uniform. I think there's something to be said about a team that only needs its school colors.

Blue jersey. Gold helmet. What is so difficult about that?
