[Hemingway's Ghost]

How do you bring yourself to use the term "losers" when describing the West Point cadets and football players. Jest is one thing but I believe your terminology is lacking in respect for the Corps of Cadets and further dishonors the rivalry. You should retract your statement and apologize.

If you don't get the joke, or the spirit in which the remark was made, I doubt you're really USNA '86. If you are really '86, the only thing I can say is "lighten up, Francis."

Trust me, I know the spirit you're referring to. There's no joke to calling any opponent "loser" and I believe we're above that type of rhetoric, don't you?

I'm sure you're not at all locked in to what I'm saying. I want to make sure that other posts realize that the Brigade is not in the habit of using your terminology to describe the Corps of Cadets.
