    I've never understood why it is at sporting events, schools, whathaveyou. Seems super weird to me.

    Save it for the national team, maybe some other kind of 'Murica event.

    I say no. These sports teams aren't doing anything patriotic or distinguished, deserving our anthem and National pride. Sports are just a game they play. Many just protest during it anyway.

    Same people who care about this and are offended also don't care that a bunch of neo Nazis and ****wads just broke into the capitol, murdered police officers, tried to kidnap and kill political officials including the Vice President, literally shat on the place, set off bombs

    **** them all to hell. They don't deserve to listen to the national anthem

    It's a stupid song.

    America The Beautiful should be the National Anthem.

    Lol the DOD paid those leagues. It wasn't stemming from the good will of the leagues. It was a pure monetary transaction for the league and for the DOD it was a recruitment tool.

    You're always free to move to a pinko commie spot. What the **** is wrong with a couple of minutes of unity?

    Ironic that it's in such a conservative, douchebag city. Would fly much better on the West Coast.

    This MF is just grandstanding on everything, I guess he thinks this will make him a better candidate for Gov.

    Very much agreed. Better song written by somebody that deserves to be revered, unlike the racist Key.

    **** him. He doesn't give a **** when terrorists attack the capitol and shat in the face of the entire country. He encourages it. What a b****.

    This vote absolutely shows us there aren't that many Americans left.

    Cuban and people who disrespect America should find new countries.

    The people that often complain about this also back a dictator wannabe and look the other way as he propagandas his way to a cult like status and tries to violently overthrow an election.


    they aren’t really Americans or care about democracy; they just need the shallowest, loudest, easiest, emptiest forms of ‘patriotism’ like this to prop up because it works just as well when you paper it over things like fascism and authoritarianism.
