I've gotta agree with you about professional athletes. These guys have it made for most of their lives. They get a free education at some excellent schools, millions of dollars in salary and endorsements, then say they're insulted and not shown respect when they feel they don't get enough dough when their contracts come up. Then, when their playing days are over, the can cash in their former professional status when it comes to business opportunities. I also love it when, during interviews, they say, "First of all, I want to thank my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for giving me the ability to..." (my interpretation, now) "...kick the living crap out of those assholes!"

As for the clothing, oh yeah, that's what they wore. We do extensive research into Rev War "fashions" and all our clothing is tailor made using all natural materials (no nylon, dacron, or even poly-blends). Its made from flax, wool, silk, or cotton. After the Titans game (played last Saturday night in sub-zero temps) I weighed my clothing and it came to 29 pounds! And that didn't include shoes, hat, canteen, cartouche box, or musket. No wonder I was tired! The men at Valley Forge would've killed to have had half that much to wear.
