If you may have missed it, the Steelers are wearing Stickers from different army division insignias on their helmets agains this year.

They started it last year with Villanueva requesting to something memorable to show support, and I'm glad to see it back. The insignias stayed on the helmets well after November last year. I'm surprised the league didn't fine them for it...
 
Kudos Cope for bringing this up. I think it’s great seeing 1st Cav, 82nd Airborne, 25th “Electric Strawberry” and the 3rd Infantry among the rest being recognized. Wish we could see all who Al appointed.

Yea, 'The Big Red One' caught my eye, so I was happy to see it back again. This is unique in football, and I'm not sure the rules, but players usually get fined for putting messages on their helmets. I'm glad the league is turning a blind eye to this rule, because they would endure a shitstorm if they had a problem with it.

The league is finally on the downside of the ANTHEM / kneeling and if the fined for this,...............it'd be right back into their face. I'm glad for Villi to get this going and for those incvolved to use a little commen sense.

Don’t be so sure DIC on the Anthem Issue.....you have a kneeler coming Thursday. Reid is the only one doing it for CAR.

Kudos to the TV networks for not showing the kneeling garbage on the broadcast anymore. Thankfully, I haven't seen it all year.

I hear yaz Ike. It has settled down but I bet the TV camera doesn't even show him kneeling. They are hiding the remnants as best as they can but I did see a clip of a cheerleader kneeling so there is that. I think the wrong venue was chosen for the protest.

If they are going to allow war worship stickers, they must also allow peace stickers.
 
Nice to see a tribute to my fellow soldiers. Intermingled with a lot of ex soldiers at the wedding. Good times.
