Title: WIWG flies the colors
Post by: ♠SARKID♠ on October 03, 2007, 05:22:40 AM
Awesome to see all the color guards on the field, and we won the game to boot!

Six color guards seemed like a lot, but when I saw the pictures, it looked awesome.

Not that many when you spread them out over a baseball field, and surround them with a massive baseball stadium

It is indeed awesome!  Shame the game didn't matter, though, since my Cubs won the division.   ;D

Don't worry about the Brewers folks. At least they aren't doing what the Indians are gonna do to us here in Cleveland. And I mean go to the playoffs, and lose miserably.

You know, I think that if the Cubbies go all the way -- to the Series -- it'll be enough to keep their fans happy for a long time to come.  The Cubs don't even have to win the Series.  All they have to do is get there, and people like me will be deliriously happy.

Now, if they do win the Series ... Hell will start to freeze over, I guess.

Hey look!  We started a trend!

http://www.cap.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=display&nodeID=6192&newsID=3586&year=2007&month=10

Are those helmets authorized?
Title: Re: WIWG flies the colors
Post by: SDF_Specialist on October 05, 2007, 03:07:51 AM
I believe they are. My unit had them when I was a cadet. No one wanted to wear them because everyone thought they looked stupid. Thankfully, I wasn't in color guard, so I never had to make that choice.

Hell, MI is about halfway between Lansing and Ann arbor, and is most assuredly in southern Michigan.

It's Minnesota Wing, they march to the beat of a different drummer (literally).

Aren't Wisconsin Wing cadets supposed to be wearing cheesehead hats? To warn the rest of us...?

I do not believe so.  I don't see them mentioned in 39-1.  And they look horrible.  Can't someone just donate a few service caps to them?
