President-elect Donald Trump will attend Saturdays?Army-Navy?football game at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, a U.S. Naval?Academy spokesman confirmed to ESPN on Tuesday.Like past U.S. presidents who have attended the game, Trump is expected to honor the longtime tradition of sitting on Armys side of the field in the first half and moving to Navys side in the second in a symbol of neutrality.President Barack Obama attended the game in 2011, when Navy beat Army 27-21 at FedEx Field outside Washington, D.C. Obama attended the game with Vice President Joe Biden and Bidens wife, Jill. Obama tossed the coin at the start of the game, visited wounded soldiers and their families and appeared on the CBS broadcast during the game.Theyre the best we have to offer, Obama said at the time.Theodore Roosevelt was the first U.S. president to attend the Army-Navy game in 1901. According to the U.S. Naval Academy, nine different Presidents have attended the game a total of 19 times. Harry S. Truman attended the most Army-Navy games, going to seven straight from 1945 to 1951. President George W. Bush attended in 2001, 04 and 08.Navy will be looking to extend its winning streak over Army to 15 consecutive games. The Midshipmen won 21-17 in Philadelphia last season, scoring the winning touchdown on Keenan Reynolds 50-yard pass to Jamir Tillman with 5:51 left. The Black Knights are 9-8-2 when a president attends the game, but Navy has won the last three times it occurred.Both teams come into Saturdays game with winning records -- the Black Knights are 6-5 and the Midshipmen are 9-3 -- for the first time since 2010.

If you ever wondered the best way to book a monster heel, take a look at how Braun Strowman took over Raw on Monday night.It was close enough to, dare I say, Ruthless Aggression.After months of squash matches throughout a slow build, the recent repackaging of the 6-foot-8 former strongman was made complete as he was fully unleashed on the Raw roster. The fallout was a menacing and destructive message to general manager Mick Foley and the rest of the locker room: Bring me some competition or else.Just in case you were wondering what the or else part was in reference to in this case, Strowman explained himself as he towered over a pair of fallen bodies in the center of the ring seconds before the closing credits appeared.Or else means everyone will fall, he screamed.Strowmans war path was reminiscent to how Kane and The Undertaker were booked during an episode of Raw on Sept. 5, 1999, when The Brothers of Destruction responded to criticism from Vince McMahon by interrupting every match on the card and destroying everything in their wake.Beginning with backstage employees and continuing through a match between Sin Cara and Titus ONeil, Strowman was just as recklessly violent. But his surprise return at the tail end of a tag-team main event of?Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho against Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins was what provided The Abominable Strowman the unquestioned legitimacy his character has lacked up to this point.Strowman grabbed Reigns from the ring apron and choked slammed him hard to the floor with ease. After beating down Rollins in the ring and laying him out for good with a running powerslam, he did the same move to Reigns on the floor.BRAUN STROWMAN!! He attacks @WWERomanReigns as the official calls for the bell! #RAW pic.twitter.com/RgrrgKtyrG- WWE (@WWE) December 20, 2016Seeing a mid-card performer like Strowman allowed to manhandle the top babyfaces on the roster was the best rub his character could have received and the proper next move for Strowman after he was included on the five-man Team Raw roster at Survivor Series and provided a strong performance.Because of how limited Strowman is as a one-dimensional beast (albeit a freakishly athletic one), the WWE may only get one chance to book him as believably unbeatable on the main event level. If that proves to be the case, this was the right way for the creative team to take its full swing.Simply put: Strowman is an absolute freak of nature. He has taken a move like the running powerslam (made famous by The British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith) and elevated it to an even higher level, as seen by the ease in which he executed it against a big man like ONeil onto the floor.Strowman not only looked worthy of the push he received on Monday, his surprise appearance in the main event was a welcome antidote to the predictable booking seen the night before to the Owens-Reigns and Rollins-Jericho feuds at Roadblock: End of the Line.Hits and missesHaving taken over the mantle from The New Day as the superstars who can most easily turn weak writing into comedic gold in 2016, Owens and Jerichos skills were again on display during Raws opening segment with Mick Foley. Im not sure, in hindsight, exactly how that segment was able to work as great as it did. But from Jericho cutting a promo on Santa Claus (more on that below) and freaking out after being locked in a shark cage, to Foley rummaging through his fanny pack to unsuccessfully search for the cages key, it got over in a big way. Jericho even threw in a reference to The Hug of Jericho, made complete when he instructed Owens, once again his new best friend, by saying, Bring it in ... man.Seriously, Im still laughing just thinking about Jericho sitting backstage with an oxygen mask, yelling, It was so high! It was so high! in reference to the shark tank as Owens angrily ushered paramedics out of the way, saying, Get this crrap out of here.dddddddddddd The constant tease of their breakup may have stretched out a few weeks too far, but the consolation of seeing them back together was worth it.Just one night after Charlotte regained her WWE Raw womens championship following yet another memorable bout with Sasha Banks, the two superstars finally appeared to be going their separate ways. Monday kicked off a pair of new feuds as Nia Jax interrupted Sasha Banks doubt-ridden speech (reminiscent of Shawn Michaels losing his smile) to attack her injured left knee, and Bayley scored a sneaky pin victory over Charlotte in a non-title match (improving her main roster record to 3-0 against the champion). While the execution of both scenarios left a few things to be desired -- specifically in terms of the acting chops from both Jax and Bayley -- its the right move for WWE to fight off fatigue, especially if a final blow-off between Charlotte and Banks is in the works for WrestleMania.Speaking of Charlotte, who now it seems is being billed exclusively as Charlotte Flair by WWE, the moonsault she landed on a Bayley was an absolute thing of beauty:MOONSAULT by @MsCharlotteWWE!! ONE TWO NOOOO!!@ItsBayleyWWE #RAW pic.twitter.com/kcZkRqzBL2- WWE Universe (@WWEUniverse) December 20, 2016More Austin Aries on commentary, please. The guy gives off nothing but Jesse Ventura feels. And thats an incredibly big compliment.With their new red WWE Raw tag-team title belts around their waist, the team of Cesaro and Sheamus very much looked the part of champions on Monday (including the massive pop Cesaro received after winning an eight-man tag-team match by submission). Thats why its time for WWE to stop this ongoing Odd Couple routine, with both superstars constantly bickering and competing for the crowds cheers. Not only is the act a tired one, it waters down how impressive the duo is from a physical and technical standpoint inside the ring.Everything about this Neville heel turn is working. Dont change a thing.The sensitivity training segment involving Enzo Amore and a cast of assorted WWE characters may have been the highlight of Mondays show from an entertainment standpoint. The recurring skit was not only hilarious, it provided one heck of an exclamation point when Rusev and Lana appeared late to join Jinder Mahal in delivering another savage beatdown of Amore. There were far too many successful one-liners in play to list them all (from Enzos sly 3MB reference while cutting down Mahal to The Skywalker Smacktalker attempting to slide into the DMs of the WWE HR representative, Colleen McCarthy). But the segment also showcased just how hilarious coach Bob Backlund can be when he is given the screen time to explore his crazy character.Move of the nightBraun Strowman not only attempted to single-handedly destroy the entire Raw roster on Monday, he nearly tried to do the same to Christmas in general, by destroying a holiday-themed setup at the top of the ramp. His most vulgar display of power, however, was the ease in which he shot put Sin Cara into a Christmas tree and through a pile of gifts below on the side of the stage..@BraunStrowman just launched @SinCaraWWE through a Christmas tree into a pile of presents!! #StrowmanMassacre #RAW pic.twitter.com/xgOX2woI6k- WWE (@WWE) December 20, 2016Line of the nightLet me bring up Santa Claus. What does Santa Claus do besides hand out gifts and make lists? Let me tell you this, Santa Claus, you stupid idiot. You know what happens when you make lists, Santa? You know what happens when you steal Chris Jerichos gimmick, Father Christmas? You want to know what happens, huh, Kris Kringle? You want to know what happens when you mess with Chris Jericho?
