13. Several articles have said there was a bowl game this year at the same time as Army-Navy

The game occurred on the same day as other college football matchups, including a bowl game that started just 30 minutes after the Army-Navy kickoff.


That is not true. There was a single bowl game the same day as Army-Navy - The Bucked Up LA Bowl (Boise State vs Washington) but that started at 8:00 PM while Army-Navy started at 3:00 PM. There was apparently an FCS (formerly Division 1-AA) quarterfinal playoff game at 3:30 (Montana vs. South Dakota).

Of course, that game had absolutely no connection to Big TV Money. Trump wants to issue an executive order to stop a "problem" which doesn't even exist.
