Soooooo, they have a new logo and have decided to rebrand their athletics teams as "Army West Point." They've even gone so far as to change their Twitter handle to @GoArmyWestPoint. Other than the weird decision on the name, the rest of the rebrand is pretty good.

Ok I guess. But I always like the basic identification :

Army
Navy
Air Force

So, is it now "Go Army West Point, Beat Navy Annapolis"?

Novel idea, adding the name of the town to the university's name. Glad to see some schools are actually proud of where they are located instead of trying to hide the location from the rest of the world...

Apparently, a Navy fan jumped on the Twitter handle change and has taken @armyathletics as his own: LINK

They should have just dropped army altogether and gone with just West Point. That's what it's referred to from an academic standpoint anyways

How does one get a job dreaming up unnecessary shite?

I am sure this will make their 2-10 seasons more palatable.

Not sure about that logo. It looks like someone got stabbed through the skull.
