Whether it is Flag Football, Softball, Volleyball or otherwise, do you feel that Organized Unit Level (Battalion, etc) Sports are a good thing for our military or not? Please explain in your comments.

I totally wish we actually did any form of unit level sports. I remember asking about softball and even bowling. My flight chief told me right to my face that Airmen are not allowed to play. You have to learn you job first then maybe you can play. Which I understood at first, until I noticed that most of the guys who were part of the Good Ole Boy system were allowed to skip work and go play. Also, when our ops tempo increased to insane levels, we never had time for really anything outside of work. I remember growing up and seeing Navy, Marines, and Army folk playing in our recreational sports and happy doing it. Never saw any of that until my unit deployed to Korea and we beat everyone at the base at everything. It was awesome.

Push Ball, best organized military sport...EVER! Too bad we "don't want to hurt" anyone, Ultimate Frisbee is so much more fun...NOT!

LTC (Join to see)
CSM (Join to see), push ball was/is great. But if you actually have the right group of people Ultimate Frisbee is a blast and there is much less standing around.
