“How is it a win-win?” That one’s easy-good PR for the military.
“Why is a football player special?” They aren’t. I think Trump would allow it.
“At the very least, a newly-commissioned ensign should not be campaigning in the court of public opinion to have the decision of the Secretary of the Navy and the rest of his chain of command overturned.” Bruce you have a very good point. They should follow orders. Try taking on this one:
“An NFL player who does some part time recruiting duty is worth a lot more to the Navy than a random ensign.” So make him work 60+ hours per week during the off season. Put him on a ship for 6 months with a weight room. He may be ‘on duty’ 365 days per year but no one works that much.
Please re-send to the guy you meant to send your reply.
Thanks.
