When is the Superbowl, anyway?

I've not seen it in years.

No interest.

Back when Ted Turner would put 'Gone with the Wind on as an alternative I'd watch that.

Why are they having female pilots fly over the football playoff game thing? They are playing black national anthem, but that is not enough. Needs to be black pilots.

SECNAV ordered it. You can imagine how it’s being received. One of the women was so bad she hit the back of the ship landing once. There are some good female pilots but this is discrimination cut and dry.

Wouldn’t you be proud to be not picked for your ability or talent but rather just because a statement needs to be made and your vagina is good enough.

what's the cost for a midair collision of F18s over a 2 billion stadium filled with 100K people?

one of them will hit a curb, another will spill her Starbucks, and a third one will be late because of the babysitter didn't show.

They need to make planes that aren't so sexist.

Why can't we reinstate the original all male crew, and say "gender is a spectrum"?

I’m expecting some buffoonery. They’ll be way late or early. I might be wrong but that’s where I’m at right now.

I thought they were worried about debris falling on populated areas.

Since one of the crews is flying a EA-18 Growler, I'm just waiting for the ECMO to accidentally throw power to the jammer pods, blacking out the stadium and surrounding area

"Sunday's flyover will be comprised of two F/A-18F Super Hornets from the "Flying Eagles" of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 122, an F-35C Lightning II from the "Argonauts" of VFA-147, and an EA-18G Growler from the "Vikings" of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 129.

Glad I won't be in attendance. Being killed by falling debris and flaming jet fuel isn't on my bucket list.

Seven female Navy officers working within a 60 foot radius of each other - I'm sure it'll be fine.

I’m on a group chat with a bunch of current pilots who said it. Not sure which one. Another one is extremely junior too. As in if she were a guy she’d never in a million years be selected for this.

Don’t believe it ever was. It was just regular pilots from the West coast I believe.

Meh.

My knee-jerk reaction is to be annoyed with the pandering. However, I have 2 daughters who both have have .mil jet pilot boyfriends and they don’t give 2 shits. So……vicariously…..i don’t waste any energy hating on this either.

I mean the secdef was a pandering hire as well.

How many of the players, coaches and owners will be on their knees during the National Anthem or will they be hiding in the locker room?

F the NFL

Who is even playing in the game?

What would really be impressive is getting each of those women to define what is a woman

Just like a Supreme Court Justice- if you have a vagina you’re qualified.

Are the all women formations as tight as the men’s formations or do they get to add more space in between their jets?

The original group of 15 officers had three women on the team, and received several angry responses on social media for the lack of diversity in a lineup put together to honor female navy pilots.
