We're still a week away from the Army-Navy game, one of college football's absolute gems, but consider "rivalry week" officially underway for the two institutions.

The Army's 82nd Airborne Division filmed a fantastic video to diss Navy and posted it to Facebook the other day. 

Major Gen. Richard Clarke, commander of the division, had this to say: "Whether you're here in Iraq, deployed like us, or up against your arch rival in a 13-game losing streak, it's still better than being in the Navy."

BOOM.

Of course, 2-9 Army is staring at extending its losing streak to 14 games against the 9-2 Midshipmen, but that doesn't make this video any less awesome, which already has more than one million views. Enjoy.
