quote:

First, Americans should respect our flag. Too many of our countrymen and women have died serving under it, and the playing of the national anthem at any ceremony should be solemn — allowing us to reflect on the importance of our freedoms and those who have sacrificed it all for them.


quote:

Second, at no time was the intent to suggest that Coach Kim Mulkey or LSU’s players were less than patriotic because they weren’t on the court while the national anthem was played. In fact, I called on the NCAA to look into standardizing the event management within college sports because what happened was unfair to Coach Mulkey and the LSU women’s basketball team.

We should never have a situation where one team is on the field or the court for the national anthem and the other is not. Either both teams should be on hand or neither should be. Otherwise, it will be interpreted by many observers exactly as this was: that the team not on hand isn’t patriotic.

That is not right!

Can someone let him know he's the governor and he doesn't need to campaign anymore?

Is this Landry's way of admitting that he fell for some stupid shite on twitter?

The issue is that this was not his stance when he went on national television and trashed our team and university.

Landry is a fricking idiot. Hope he learns from this, but he most definitely won’t. This is who he is.

Thanks for letting it flag in the wind a few weeks before “clarifying”, Jeff! Brilliant stuff.

Yeah I voted for him because well the alternative was a complete “No Go” but this dude is back tracking and crawfishing big time. He knows he royally fricked up going on tv and talking all that shite.
