I disagree.I'm not going to apologize; I have said nothing against the Anthem. It was on threads here yesterday that the players coming out on the field while the Anthem was played started in 2009. If everyone is going to freak out about how the players behave during the Anthem, either stop playing it or have the players wait in the locker room like they used to. Problem SOLVED.I've heard it played since childhood, I'm 51.What ought to happen is that the National Anthem stop being played prior to sports games. It's got nothing to do with football, anyway, and I hear it's recent--2009? for the NFL.
So big deal, if people are going to go mental over it, just quit performing it. It's hard to sing anyway and half the time it's painful to listen to.
Please look up the history of the Anthem, then come back and apologize for what you said about it.
