South Carolina and Maryland will be wearing special Under Armour jerseys this Saturday. It is for the Wounded Warrior Project and for Veteran's Day. The Wounded Warrior Project provides services and programs for injured military men and women. This effort will honor those who have served or are serving in the military and to promote the Wounded Warrior Project.

I think this a great idea. I want to thank the University of South Carolina and the University of Maryland for taking part in this great cause. As a country, I think we need to do more for our soliders and veterans. I want to thank all the current soldiers and veterans for protecting our freedom. These uniforms are way better than what Nike is trying to do with their "Pro Combat" uniforms (will be in a later post). I think we need to stop comparing football players to "soldiers" are say they are going into "combat" or a "war." I have never been to war, but I have played football, and I just want to say I wasn't stepping on land mines are getting shot at on the football field. Seriously stop it (I'm talking to the media and football players). Our men and women serving in the Armed Forces and our Veterans are the only soldiers.
Here are some pictures of South Carolina's jerseys:
