I’ve said all along the NFL will try to resolve this by simply not having the Anthem. Wait and see.
We knew this wa coming. Just take it out!! I
Oppose that and suggest fans sing it together in unison to support the flag. Thay cannot stop us!!
He makes a fair point, but discontinuing it because the players refuse to stand for it, is the wrong answer. Its kind of a weasely answer.
How about this... in a contest between these nimrods who clearly don’t like the country, who cares who wins?
Yes, they’re all for changing things when it supports their agenda anyway. But they’re big on symbolism when it suits them.
More capitulation? No!
I completely disagree. The national anthem at large gatherings of Americans should help bring us together. The commonality of all standing respectfully emphasizes what we share. It was only as the Ctrl-Left turned treasonous that this ritual became a problem.
The solution is not to drop the ritual but to educate those who were raised so poorly that they were willing to follow evil. Seeing the division is better than failing to recognize the degree to which totalitarian socialism has infiltrated our society. Keep playing the anthem - and work to educate even #BlackThugsMatter sympathizers on the positive values that define America.
Frankly, I don’t see the connection between a sports event and the National Anthem...except that it is being played at a large crowds of people, presumably, overwhelmingly American people.
BUT....since the NFL and other jackasses have made this an issue we CAN NOT change that now. In fact, it should be played twice now and maybe add in the Pledge of Allegiance!
How do you like those apples NFL?!
What a dumbass thesis. This is precisely what the left wants. Discord and abandonment of National traditions. Eradicate any sense of patriotism and loyalty to ones Nation.
Know your enemy.
And why not?
Let the teams that want to keep it, keep it.
That speculation is absolute bullshit. The SJWs would find another way to further their marxist goals. But, they would still do it.
An obvious Never Trumper. And, seemingly, anti-American, too.
Prior to 1919, it’s not used much for sports. It changes when it’s introduced for the World Series, as a seventh-inning stretch ‘tune’. They implement it as the start-up of the next world series game.
