W. Mich - Row The Boat

Any others?

Those in the OP are stupid.

Military ones- let them do what they want.

They are desperate cries for attention, like ugly women dressing slutty.

The uniforms are cool. The motto is pretty lame though... it just doesn't need to be plastered on the back of the uniform like that, it's cheap looking.

I heard Jameis Winston will be wearing a special edition "Just the tip" FSU jersey this weekend.

The motto has a meaning. It comes from Gen. Douglas MacArthur's speech to the Corps of Cadets at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., May 12, 1962, in accepting the Thayer Award.

quote:

Duty, Honor, Country" — those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn.

One of the GOAT speeches. But they had to change it from 'Country' to 'Courage' so as not to piss off the PC libs who don't want to offend any advocacy groups.

The military ones, on jerseys of military academies are tight as frick. Anyone who says otherwise may as quickly as possible carry themselves to Mexico or Canada.
