The future Commander-In-Chief is smart enough, I think, to realize service academy football players have a greater mission in life — defending our freedom and democracy, many of them putting themselves in harm's way overseas — than playing football. I can't imagine the young men who will soon graduate and lead our armed forces, the best and the brightest this country has to offer, felt too good about what their future Commander-in-Chief said about them on national television. Whether Trump saw players like Staubach, who played for Navy, or Doc Blanchard or Glenn Davis, Mr. Inside and Mr. Outside, who played for Army and won the Heisman in back-to-back seasons, is really irrelevant.
