    How does High School basketball and baseball survive? Those anti-American institutions rarely, if ever, play the anthem before their games.

    Considering TV viewers rarely see the anthem during a pro sporting event unless it's a special game, I guess the fans and networks are a bunch of anti Americans that should leave the country.

    I mean, shouldn't all these so called America lovers be inundating the networks with requests to show the anthem?

    Unity has nothing to do with listening to a song together lol. Patriotism really has nothing to do with with watching a basketball game that pits one city against another.

    The Olympics makes more sense for sure, but it's a forced tradition and Cuban should be within in his right to stop the practice. Doesn't make him unpatriotic at all. He set up a fund for veterans KIA - I'd say that's a million times patriotic than singing a song or anything you've probably done.

    Yeah they eat that **** up but they don't have the numbers to elect alone and that person in the middle is tired of this grandstanding and using the gov for stuff like this.

    Unite.

    You do know that entire event is has a winner and a loser and people root for both sides.

    That's the opposite of uniting.
