Army-Navy Game’s Stunning Rendition of the National Anthem Puts Every Kneeling NFL Player To Shame

Army and Navy met again Saturday afternoon on a snowy field in Philadelphia to play a football game that has been played for over 100 years.

The Army-Navy football game is one of the most storied sports traditions in the country.

This year marks the 118th time the two teams have met. The teams meet in a neutral city between their respective academies. They often play in NFL stadiums due to the enormous number of active duty and veteran fans who wish to attend.

Before the game, the choirs of the Annapolis and West Point academies joined together to sing the national anthem. It was a solemn moment and was made even more beautiful by the falling snow.

1:44 where does your argument come from? Thin air? I think Trump supporters would know monkey see monkey do better than anyone

144 how would you know? How much engagement with the players and their supporters have you honestly had?

You guys are laughable. It's ok to not agree with folks on the other side of an issue. Just don't lie to yourselves and others by making it seem like you have actually taken an objective look at the facts and the issues that others have brought to the table.

144 is right. Most of them are not smart enough to make decisions like this on their own. You don't have to know them, you can tell by looking at them. It really is that simple, though most people won't admit that.
