The Green Mountain Boys aren’t what they used-to-be In 1776!
Green Mountain Boys - Wikipedia
Something about:
"Live Free or Die" is the official motto of the U.S. state of New Hampshire.
Apparently ‘Live Free’ now means putting on a union hat and joining the ‘rank and file’ and delegating a union shop-Stewart to represent your best interests.
Jimmy Hoffa would be proud of these Green Mountain Boys. Patrick Henry not so much.

Dartmouth men's basketball team votes to unionize - Washington Times
HANOVER, N.H. — The Dartmouth men’s basketball team voted to unionize Tuesday in an unprecedented step toward forming the first labor union for college athletes and another blow to the NCAA‘s deteriorating amateur business model.
