That’s probably more like 75%. Really do you not pay any attention? Usually guys are bouncing their hand off their leg, staring off in the distance. Like I said, in America pre-game anthem is for game face, actually enjoying the anthem is only for winners at trophy presentations.

The actual video shows normal behavior by the team.

Looks like a article looking for a crisis to provoke.

In some places she’d already been tossed off a roof.

Well I ‘spect their bass and tenor voices wouldn’t sound that good anyway.

Hey, I'm a tenor. That's what happens to altos when they get up there in age.

Kidding aside, its a difficult song to sing unless its in exactly the right key, so I don't condemn them for not singing. But they could at least mouth the words. Not scowling through the whole thing would help as well.

That’s right. Too bad we can’t do it here.

What ARE they protesting...? Looking for- but can’t find any reasons given. Same thing goes for other sources as well.
