Timing on the anthem is a bit slow, and too much improv in the middle.

Memo for wannabe singers - if you can’t hit the high notes, don’t try.

Broken skies to the northwest, gray skies for the F-15 flyover.

His rendition carried a muted, deafeatist tone IMHO.

Gimme a second to pull on my ridiculously tight black T-shirt....

That was just bloody awful. I’d rather listen to someone mutilate a cat than your so-called singing!

Okay, t-shirt’s coming off now. That guy’s voice is better suited to whining about how some mean girl broke his heart and kicked his puppy than the Star-Spangled Banner.

Gavin DeGraw - maybe he’s moaning through the anthem because our country is in such chaos.

I’m surprised Obama hasn’t thought of stopping flyovers at the races.
