Let's not BOOO Army

[usedcarguy]

We can be loud and rowdy without booing. Boo EIU? Of course. Nebraska? Without a doubt. With the service acadamies it's about respect. They are making sacrifices that most in our society are not willing to make.

Yeah, it's just a game but because so is no excuse to dis our nation's TRUE heros.

Anyone booing better not be sitting anywhere close to me.

I will Booo them if they don't wear these;

Cuz those are tight

 

[ornryactor]

Are those seriously their uniforms? Those are pretty freaking sweet.

One would think that with all the technology dollars that goes into the defense department, they could figure out a way to make a "stealth uniform."

Coach: "Johnson! Why didn't you cover that guy? He was wide open for that toucdown grab."

Johnson: "But coach, I didn't see him. It's like he came out of no where."

Yes, they played in those last year.

I will not be one booing (I do not even boo Iowa) so the only reason I ask is out of curiosity.

You just an internet tough guy or are you going to lay someone out? If you are going to lay someone out, I want to come over and watch!

Yes, I'm positive it can be heard. As players, I doubt they really think about it a whole lot though. But, I would still rather be in favor of showing a little more respect to this team (and still beat them by 40 points).

You won't boo, but you advocate running up the score on them? :wink:

 

[ceeboe]

Yes, they played in those last year.

Was it for the whole year though, or just the Army/Navy game?

If I remember, their names on the back all said the same thing, just don't remember what it was.

 

[CycoCyclone]

At least the Army v. Navy game...

Nike Launches New Army and Navy Football “Enforcerâ€Â￾ Uniforms

Their practice uniforms are no indicator.

Resurrecting this thread. I believe the Rag mentioned something today about cheering Army as they take the field. I'm down with that. I'd feel bad booing a service academy. After kickoff tho, yeah let's roll up the score.

 

[Rods79]

You know, I'm all for not booing them...but I am more than a little questionable about the dog and pony show that they are rolling out for this game per the Register's article. Am I alone?

 

[CycoCyclone]

ISU has one of the top ROTC programs in the country for a non-military affiliated schools. They're rolling it all out for those kids.

I was hoping to get a camo shirt made in ISU colors with an I-State logo on it. Thought it'd be nice way to show respect and still sport ISU gear.

but from a distance or on tv, you'd look like an army fan, not an ISU fan. I don't like that idea.

Let's not boo Iowa either. They're Iowan. Let's not boo Nebraska. That's like booing America. Let's not boo Baylor. They're a religious school, and booing them is like booing Christianity.

This.

IMO, either any opponent is OK to boo, or none of them are.

"Everybody talks all that **** about the Air Cav, but who do they call when the **** really hits the fan? Mother Green and her Killing Machine."

This. I will boo if the general sentiment is to boo. I am not booing the Army or their recruits or any men that have sacrificed health and life...but I would and will boo their football team. Why? Because this is college football not preschool soccer. Go ahead and lay me out tough guys.

 

[CycoT]

I just wanna win. By alot.

Come on boys and girls. These are guests in our house. Grow up. I think the 1,2.3.4 clap we do at the Bball games would be fine. I hope you don't Boo your guests at your house when they arrive.
