Leave it to our gigantic media conglomerates to double down on bad ideas.
Repeating a controversial move from last year’s Super Bowl (and most recent sports events since 2020), the NFL has announced that they are, again, beginning the game with the so-called “Black National Anthem,” as well as the actual national anthem, at Super Bowl LVIII next month.
As announced by Adam Schefter, an ESPN reporter and podcast host, on X (formerly Twitter), the NFL has chosen country legend Reba McEntire to sing the national anthem, rapper Post Malone (of all people) to sing “America the Beautiful,” and singer/actress Andra Day, most famous for playing Billie Holliday in the 2021 biopic “The United States vs. Billie Holiday,” to sing “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”

What is this super bowl thing?
Must not be much to it if Earl’s Sport Programing Network is pushing it.
NFL can F off
I WAS interested in the game. Not anymore.
Have you seen the official NFL game highlights on YouTube? They’re fabulous. It’s just the best / meaningful plays from start to finish, with no ads (except maybe one or two at the start), no inane commentary, no timeouts, no replays. Just completed passes, longer runs, sacks, TDs, field goals, interceptions, first downs — all the meaningful plays with no fluff. You can watch an entire game in about 12-15 minutes.
If I had let myself be insulted for last 7 years I could stop now. But I stopped then.
Golden Calf writhing.
Filth.
What is wrong, and you should know this, is that this is simply
another diabolic way to separate us. They can’t stand us being
at peace with each other, each of us U.S. Citizens.
There has to be friction.
Where do you draw the line. In Los Angeles schools there
are 165 different languages spoken by its students. Well,
we only have 163 more anthems to go.
I’m so tired of these blatant attempts to fractionate
this nation.
That’s what I watch now.
“Stop watching NFL if you want this to stop.”
Did some years back.
With no TV, I will not be distracted by this nonsense.
Since blacks have a national anthem that isn’t the US anthem, can we just kick them back home to that nation??
I guess I will not be watching the super bowl nor the playoffs this weekend. FNFL
Oh, Freedom!
As I posted several years ago, “To Hell, Hell, Hell, with the N. F. L.” A bunch of pampered, perfumed, wussy, whineybutts...
Haven’t looked back and don’t care to look back now. Consign them to the flames.
I listen to the games on the radio. Then go watch the last 4-5 minutes. You get more done that way.
That is awesome. Reba got her start singing the national anthem at a rodeo in Oklahoma. I think in the early 70’s.
They will live with the Christian roots as long as they can keep using it to sow racial enmity.
I’ll watch the condensed version on YouTube on the next day. Takes about 40 minutes.
It's in the excerpt you posted.
REBA will sing out National Anthem
