Andra Day performed "Lift Every Voice and Sing," known as the Black national anthem, ahead of Super Bowl LVIII and received a rousing ovation from the fans at Allegiant Stadium.

As it should.

Divisive, insulting to our nation’s heritage, our military, more.

At least they could’ve made the song “I like Big Butts.” Now THAT, I could see as a black national anthem.

It is why I stopped watching the NFL. I was a lifelong fan for about half a century.

No more.
