This is pretty cool. The NFL (along with college football) has done a nice job paying tribute to the victims since the tragedy.

I don't know if this was discussed or not around the time of the game, I assume it was and I missed it... but did everyone notice the Sandy Hook decals on the backs of the Bama helmets in the BCS Championship game? Was it mentioned on the broadcast? I know LSU had similar decals in their bowl game...

That is cool,that will be a high light of the game for sure.

I never heard about nor did I notice the stickers on the helmets. When I get the Blu-Ray of the BCS NCG ,I will certainly be looking for them.

I believe that is what the 26 on the back of the helmets were for

Click here to see a picture i just found where you can see that on the back of one of the helmets

Seems like the money could be used a little differently, instead of flying them out give it to the families who lost their kids to help cover funeral costs or something.

I don't care for the political parading of these kids.

I guess I saw it more as a fun escape for the kids.


And yeah, I don't remember any mention of the decals during the broadcast. But I remember seeing them. Nice gesture.
