ARMY/NAVY GAME ON NOW!! 3PM EDT CH2 - TRUMP IS THERE
“...I will never address Biden as President...”
Neither will I; his proper title is the Usurper.
My screen name is the hull number of the ship I was stationed on. Guess who I’m pulling for. It was a WW2 aircraft carrier. It was commissioned in 1944 and saw action in the pacific. It was cut up in 1995.
Gee, I wonder...
Probably who I'm pulling for.

I watch it every year Richard and today's game was no different than any prior games.........Get a life!
If you can't get a life, maybe you can get a cat.........Sheesh!
NEVER.
..................................
I will be wearing my Trump hats and other swag, and flying my 4 x 8 red Trump flags until the 2024 election and maybe until 2028, and I hope every Trump patriot does likewise.
I didn’t realize the coin toss was not live.
To be honest, I’m surprised they even acknowledged the fact that President Trump was in the stadium.
SeeBS and the rest of the corrupt lame-stream media having been trying to cancel our great president for 5+ years.
Ill address that loser as the Child Sniffer
I didn’t notice the audio being screwed with, but who knows.
I wouldn’t put anything past these bastards in the media.
As for Biden, if he actually is sworn in, he will be the
Commander-in-Thief, the president-select, the illegitimate occupant at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, etc.
Absolutely. I'm surprised someone here was actually defending CBS, after all they and the other far left fake news media outlets did.
Thanks for the pics.
Cool.
I heard a great quote on sports talk radio in Greenville, SC last night - everyone playing in this game is willing to lay down his life for everyone watching this game.
I’m with you.
I’m also going to promote Trump for 2024.
Violating one constitutional provision to save the entire Constitution and our Free Constitutional Republic is OK with me.
sure karen- you keep defending See BS- its in your DNA.
This game may be over before 6PM which would make it less than three hours...
