Air Force Appreciation Thread
Army, Navy and Marines as well.
What a class act Air Force's players and coaches were. Loved watching Chase show the utmost respect for these special young men and women who sacrifice so much for the rest of us:

The world is a messy place but damn it felt good to see how well our country is represented by discipline and sportsmanship of the Air Force team. Here's hoping both teams win out the rest of the year.

but it sounded butthurt. If someone said that Cincy is winning 10 games, I would have agreed with you. However, AF winning 9-10 games is a perfectly reasonable take given their 2016 season and the way they played against Michigan.
Your second response seems very rational. I would normally have given you the benefit of the doubt on the first response but there are so many butthurt UM fans on the internet right now that I have lost my patience.

Why is it a middle finger to play them?

I agree that shitting on Brandon for scheduling a team as frustrating to play as Air Force is overblown. However, Brandon did schedule the rematch against Appalachian State as well, which was beyond stupid; so fuck Dave Brandon.

But man was I wrong when I thought the thread quality would improve once we got to football season.

I don't know about an airstrike, but there may be other options available, one that has less chance of having collateral damage. Former special ops folks who are looking for, shall we say, "outside" employment.

My son is a Air Force vet.
Much respect to the USAF and all other branches.
It's bigger than football.

I made a conscious choice to let people get this out of their system this week because we're probably gearing up for the onslaught of more sarcastic ones this week, if I am reading the tenor of the blog correctly. In the past, being overzealous about pulling the less pertinent appreciation threads has itself led to the creation of more of them, so I thought maybe if I let it slide once, it would at least slow down later.
Or maybe that was a vain hope of mine. We'll see.

so hard their grandkids feel it, things are going to get ugly up in here.

for not blowing out any knees on the DL/OL. Much appreciated. We wish you the best this year and thanks for your service!

Loved the fly over and pregame paratroopers, by the way ya put a scare into us. Thank you all for serving.

We should appreciate the great competition we witnessed between these awesome young American men! Our team is filled with great young men and we should enjoy watching them grow under thiese great leaders. Don't know how good we will end up being in the end, but the potential is terrific. Enjoy the ride!

However, one could also argue that me giving you a "+1" is a type of "virtue signaling" in itself!
