Arizona Wildcats football to honor USS Arizona by wearing

Submitted by SalvatoreQuattro on September 16th, 2016 at 5:07 PM

uniforms symbolizing the battleship. http://www.ncaa.com/news/football/article/2016-09-15/arizona-football-w… I can't express how touched I am by this gesture. It's been 75 years, but the sorrow never fades.Good for Arizona and Rich Rod for remembering that day. Never forget the 7th of December 1941.

... a custom jersey that is actually thoughtful, well researched, and looks good. Didn't know it was possible.

Those guys on that ship. Are still there under water. The Memorial, too much for words if you have ever been there.

War Sucks. God Bless those guys. What might have been for them and their lives, all that was changed.

Freedom is not Free. Fair winds and following seas is what I have wished for them.

Very Nice gesture by Arizona. I forgot it was 75 years. Damn.

Thank you. Please ignore the ignorance on this board. I disagree with you often. Not this time. Such pettiness on this board from those who lack a historical perspective. Frightening. Thanks again.

"The sorrow never fades." Okay, guy. I believe you. I also wake up everyday with a morsel of sorrow for the poor souls aboard the USS Arizona. I also love melodrama.
