We all know they only won because the internet commandos didn't participate in the competition!!!

(sarc) Yeah, I'm sorry, I was busy in the bathroom. Those fools have nothing on my skillz! And I can do better with one hand in my DP and Cheetos!! Next year, though. I'll be out there!



I've always wondered at why we "promote" our special forces. Does anyone know? I would think we'd want them to be the super secret ninja type that appear, destroy, and then are gone until they are called up again. Not selling books about their exploits or going to national competitions and such... By promoting them, aren't we showing the world what they can do and giving them time to countertrain, etc? Don't know, anyone want to explain it to me?

Meh.......its a pretty good scare tactic though! Would you step into the ring with holyfield? Now our potential enemys shall quake with fear!

AHAHAHA!!! Great point. Didn't think of it like that.

Some of those pictures are fantastic.

Air Force has sniper teams? I did not know that.

If no one knows about them, then how can they be sure that they are selecting the best from the largest pool?
