In 1922, a group of 25 Army officers made a promise to protect each other when no one else would. Nearly a century later, USAA represents more than 11 million members committeed to the same mission. The organization provides a suite of services for military members and their families, including: Insurance, Banking, Investing, Real Estate, Retirement Planning, Health Insurance, and Shopping Discounts. With 2016 marking the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, this year's location for the Pro Bowl has a special significance.
Since 2011, USAA has been an Official Military Appreciation Sponsor of the NFL, including their Salute to Service campaign. On January 31, 2016 they will be presenting the NFL Pro Bowl between two teams comprised of the best football players in the NFL today, and a series of events that week leading up to the game. The two teams - headed by football legends Michael Irvin and Jerry Rice - will draft their teams on Wednesday, January 27 and compete for glory with the best players in the league.
Our Twitter Party will start just before the coin toss on Sunday, Jan 31 at 7:30 pm ET, but make sure to follow @MenWhoBlog and @USAA for coverage from all the exciting events that week including:
- Pro Bowl Draft, Wednesday, Jan. 27 starting at 7 pm ET
- Pro Bowl Practice on Friday, Jan 29 starting at 2:45 pm ET
