Troy Aikman found himself at the center of some controversy this week when he was caught on a hot mic mocking military flyovers. The incident occurred during Sundays showdown between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Green Bay Packers.

Actually, as Rush mentioned yesterday, the service branches use this in pilot training and the hours count toward pilot training.
Agreed.
Right, but if Aikman wears a MAGA hat or stands for the Anthem he's out on his ear.
Things keep up we won't have to see a flyover, a parade, a marching band, any fireworks, even a flag hanging outside a home.
Hell, mister, I'll go on quietly saluting men like you even if I have to do it behind bars.
Likely we'll begin to find out in just a couple weeks.
just kidding - I don't know their names. I used that A LOT on Twitter during the 2016 election wars.The caption was: "Whaddya mean yer votin' fer Trump?"
And they are evaluated as to how close they can get to the final note of the song. (Thank you George S Patton).
True. Plus formation flying is good practice.
Welcome to FR, Skip Bayless. The meme about Troy being gay has been thoroughly debunked.
I'm former military, these flybys do nothing for me.
A stadium flyover is exciting, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
But there should never be another one for the NFL. They don't deserve it. Use any training jet fuel available to fly over a schoolyard in a community where patriots live.
I doubt Aikman is voting Democrat...I thought it was a back handed slap when he said “Kamala-Biden”.
That’s possible.
Stop the public funding / tax breaks to private sport teams to build their stadiums. Let them bear the cost of infrastructure improvement around their properties. Stop paying them to send honor guards to their games, make them pay for the flyovers. Some teams will and some will not but let’s have an honest accounting of which are patriotic or not. Let the cost come out of their ungrateful owners and player’s pocket, btw way we’re $27 trillion in debt.
“ctually, as Rush mentioned yesterday, the service branches use this in pilot training and the hours count toward pilot training.”
Correct. The time flying can be anything, so the military makes double use of the time to also do flyovers. Also, no vet I know, myself included, thinks flyovers are stupid.
Gessus you guys.
I took this as a satirical comment and now I understand the impetus
Yes, its a waste of money. The military does not exist for our entertainment.
And as Aikman pointed out, this is going to be a Harris / Biden ticket. Her old man confirmed this! Please tell me where he is wrong?
Thats a lot of jet fuel just to do a little flyover, Aikman noted as he saw the planes fly over his head.
Thats your hard-earned money and your tax dollars at work, his broadcasting partner, Joe Buck, replied.
That stuff aint happening with [a] Kamala-Biden ticket, Aikman shot back. Ill tell you that right now, partner.
Like to see how close they could get those after burners to the kneelers.
d:o)))~
He’s always been a jerk. Too bad he was a Dallas Cowboy.
