Just be glad that there are people willing to fight and die to allow you the freedom to post your opinion.

Nicksmom is a real American hero.

A service to the people, a non-manufactured need.

There's a lot of them, but it seems most heroes are being shipped off. Whether it be to Iraq or India.

[Timo]

She sure is!

I'll admit, I did my time in the service. I think it was expected. My dad was in the Coast Guard, My Grandpa was an officer in the army, and my brothers were in the Navy

[Neinteen]

Really? Wow, that's impressive.

Tough yet awesome... Nicksmom.

Go outsourcing!

Not to mention I save people's lives, and don't make diddlie- squat for pay. All the big bucks go to the "Professional Jocks". No one is worth over 1 million a year to PLAY a silly game. Doesn't matter what game either. *Mom is standing on her soapbox, again*

Keep America America! Buy American!

Sounds like the Rebel Yell after the War of 1812 when the British dumped their cheap goods on the American market and almost smothered the early American industrial growth.

Major league sports are such bs.

Getting paid 'millions to run around up and down a field' is insane. And it's not like the old days, when those who loved the sport the most played, it's all about the money.

It's a sin.

Nick, the 7 year old watched the "battle at Waterloo" the other day. I had to tell him that the "blue guys" were not going to win, no matter how hard he yelled at them. "The red guys lost in the last show" (American revolution)

You have movies of famous battles? Nice.

Poor Napoleon, comes back in his hundred days only to be beat by Wellington.

Napoleon is a hero, in my opinion, not a tyrant.

Gordie Howe, on of the all time great hockey players got a lettermans jacket as a signing bonus. Al Kaline had to beg for a raise to 100,000 a year. Players won't get out of bed these days for anything less than a mill.

The sad thing is most people would pay them

Nick was impressed by Napoleon being able to have the French army go with him instead of the King.

Not me....I haven't been to a professional sports event in 9 years. I refuse

[Neinteen]

Professional League sports are crap.

Napoleon rocked, his work was legendary. His reforms controversial, but stunning nonetheless.

Hrm so Timo does this mean you wouldn't support my decision to go into the Airforce or possibly Coast Guard?
