Remember last year? Navy does.

If that classless perception existed, rest assured it would have been written about in blogs, game summaries, newspapers etc; Cadets are held to a higher standard and they should be.

interesting piece. KC fans portrayed themselves as very classless. In the air force vs navy game this past weekend, air force fans booed when a Navy player went down while they were driving to win the game at the very end because they thought he was faking to stop the clock.....even though stiopping the clock would have benefited air force! Fools!

Trust me, I had nothing to do with the posting. I am neither a Ravens fan, Irish, or have anything to do with Baltimore.

I'm sure if I was bored enough to look, I could find more. But I know what I saw and do not need corroboration.

This person's post says the player was booed for "faking to stop the clock." That doesn't make sense. Air Force wanted the clock to stop and it didn't.

It would appear this person has a mixed perception about what happened as well. :thumb:
 
As has been stated, this seems to be a brouhaha over nothing. A classless act worth questioning would have been if the cadet wing had errupted in loud cheer to celebrate the Navy player going down... We didn't. We simply did not like that the clock continued to run.

So very perceptive and accurate buffalo.

If the fans and cadet wing didn't RESPECT an injured navy player, they wouldn't BOO him for being injured. That's like asking the score and being told the time. Nothing to do with each other. If you really disrespected the "Injured Player", you would CLAP, CHEER, and CELEBRATE the "Injury". Those boos were not directed towards an injury. And anyone who thinks it did, is definitely reading into it something that isn't there.

Buffalo; that is perfect recognition of human behavior. Excellent observation.
