A WAVY viewer snapped a photo of the team before their football game against Grassfield.

Are some of those kneeling Whites?
Screw any of these disrespectful jerks. These whiny losers are tiresome.
>>Our nation’s children are fed a non-stop godless worldview that teaches them to hate their American heritage.
This agrees with what I said. Shut down the government schools and what do you think the group of people who shun responsibility, discipline, and work will do to educate their kids? Answer: NOTHING.
If a decent human being loves their children, they send them to private, Christian schools. If that means less vacations, a smaller house, no iPhone 7 when it comes out, and no season tickets to the NFL, then that’s what you do. It also means that you don’t fit church “into your schedule”. You build your schedule around church and model that to your kids.
Amen.!
“Are some of those kneeling Whites?’
Just looked at some pictures of the team. The answer to that is probably not. Which leads to a bigger issue. If Cankles is elected President, what will she do about this?
Trump’s position about this should be made clear.
Nation dividing like I’ve never seen it before. And, it’s not over important issues, it’s over (damn) lies. This is crazy. Whoever is behind the scenes driving this stuff needs to be executed promptly.
Remove the National Anthem and the Flag and join the Global Government ,Obama and Soros must be behind it
The school ranks a deplorable 225th in the state! Enough said.
And Grassfield BEAT them 17-6!
;-)
There should be a co-pay for public education then most the behavior problems and not learning in class would cease.
Most parents would pay attention if they got billed for it.
If you think the flag is “just a cloth” , you have lost the human capacity to understand the reality of a symbol. You are to be pitied.
They’re just being lazy; dey tired...
Matthew Fontaine Maury High School (the Commodores) was established in 1911 and named after a prominent naval officer and a son of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Maury is the father of modern maritime meteorology and oceanography and is known as the “Scientist of the Seas.” He’s a man who devoted his life to his country, and to the Commonwealth during the Civil War.
Of course, the knotheads — looks like brothas on their knees — likely know none of that, and because liberals & thugs have sense of humor or irony, it goes past them. Willing to bet the school’s administration, and perhaps even the coaches, are encouraging the disrespect.
It was clearly sarcasm. He was reminding everyone of who Michelle Obama said that.
Interesting how these high school administrators are ok with this display, yet will no allow kids to wear shirts with NRA emblems, or the American flag, or christian symbols because they might offend someone. Why aren’t they being called out for their hypocrisy.

If I were the principal, I would have immediately forfeited the game.
Even today’s 30 somethings who have seen Military service, don’t recognize WW2 Medals. I’m having a hard time convincing my nephew who thinks because he did a report on his Granddad which he thinks is well researched, he knows more than a DD 214 he’s never seen does. My Dad, fought under Gen. MacArthur, 5 major battles, T/5, Volunteered with a PFC to put the Flag back up on Corregiador on a Telegraph pole under sniper fire, both have Bronze Stars with names engraved on the back. Along with the Silver Star on Battle ribbons. Dad was Airborne not just Army 503RD. My middle Sis has his uniform jacket and some medals and I’ve got the re-ordered medals along with the DD 214 and all his military records. Had to go through the VA to get them, as you know a fire destroyed many of them from that era. http://corregidor.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=history&action=print&thread=503
