Dude you are talking out of your @ss. Your appreciation for the military is admirable but your vitriol is completely misplaced here. This is like a Saturday Night Live sketch that is going on a wee bit too long.

The difference is that Brady calmly calls audibles while Manning flaps like a chicken, barks 11 code words, and makes sure every camera in the stadium has documented his once-in-a-generation (and patented, I believe) ability to see a defensive formation and change the play. Both have the same effect, but Manning transcends measurable human intellect while Brady merely chooses a different play.

With that logic, who cares about posting on a football message board on a day like today?

Are you going to go crash random birthday parties and lecture the people there for appreciating a birthday instead of the veterans?

Also when did it become necessary to post a thank you to the veterans on a football message board? Wouldn't it be much more appropriate to, I don't know - go visit a grave site, parade or personally thank a veteran via phone?

Of course we all appreciate the veterans.

Maybe I'd have more appreciation for Veteran's Day if I actually had the day off! Just kidding of course!

Well, alamo, I for one love the game and greatly appreciate your hard work!

The game is alright, but there are tons of things wrong with it….

JK, great game keep it up

Chill the hell out. Just because people haven't posted in that thread doesn't mean that they haven't thanked veterans, new and old, for what they have done for the country. I know I have and I didn't need to post in a thread on PatsFans.com just to show it. Did that ever cross your mind before you decided to completely hijack the thread?

I am extremely disappointed that none of the Mods have stickied the thread that was started by NEGIRLPATSFAN and disappointed that more people haven't posted in that thread. It truly is sad how much we take for granted in this country.
Dude you are crazy, make your own tread about that topic

My stepson came home from 12 years in the Army as a Sargeant and was part of the Special Forces unit - He had several friends in his unit blown away with their brain matter scattered right in front of him during his time in the Iraqi desert.

I think he could care less of having a thread on a sports fans website,Now on a military website or a news-type one then it might be a different thing

If you want a thread for this, maybe the veterans WHO ARE patsfans.com members are more appropriate to get together and show respect

Good Lord, you guys can make anything a food fight. Cripe the Veterans Day thread had to turn political.


This is about appreciation of alamo, who ever that is.

If alamo wants this thread moved over to the Practice Squad forum, I'll be glad to do it.
