During WWll the football game of the year was the Army-Navy game. Football was not put on hold during that war, a world war no less. It was considered then to be good for moral. I would venture to say that many more soldiers were dieing then as well.

I have a copy of a program my dad brought home from Italy after WWII. In Italy, before the war in the Pacific was over, the American troops in Rome stage a "Spaghetti Bowl." The program lists all of the players and their ranks.

Pfui on this column, which is a pitiful combination of sour grapes and leftist twaddle.
