I agree with everything you said except the kneeling

I respect your opinion and again, that's what FREEDOM is all about. But do you know that the ultimate respect you can pay to a fallen soldier is to take a knee. This is what any unbias, respectful soldier would tell you.

Do you think it's disrespectful to take a knee at the grave of a fallen soldier? If your answer is no then you are contradicting yourself to say it's disrespectful to take a knee doing the anthem.

Oh no sir my man, John Bel is a moron. If Biden wins again JBE becomes your new Climate Control Zealot, he’s been auditioning for 4 years.

Another dumb fricking USL grad.

There are time constraints with broadcasting nationally , pre game prep and not running into other programming

I obviously can't prove it, but someone in the replies to one of the tweets about this whole thing claimed to work in production for college sports. He said every venue, every tournament, every network, every team, all have different schedules and timelines. Acting like Kim (or any coach) would constantly rearrange their warm-up and prep to align with the constraints of all those different entities is crazy.

Right. The whole thing is ridiculous. I could show you numerous examples of various men’s and women’s basketball teams being in the locker room during the anthem. Every time the coach has the same answer - we have a pregame routine and we don’t change it to accommodate every venue’s/network’s national anthem timing.

It’s almost always a controversy that starts with some tweet showing the benches during the anthem. There’s a reason it starts with a tweet instead of actual broadcast footage. Networks don’t give a shite about the national anthem outside of championship games where there’s a big pregame show. And even then the networks often choose to ignore it. If people really care about players being on the court for the anthem, they should be asking why it’s buried in the pregame schedule rather than played immediately prior to the tip off, after the rest of the BS.

That’s to say nothing of other sports like football where the whole thing becomes even more laughable.

Landry threw gasoline on a story that would have disappeared otherwise, and now everyone will use it as a negative recruiting tool against LSU. He and his staff know that his letter is completely pointless and misdirected. At best, it’s a waste of time for everyone involved. At worst, it’s a conscious decision to prioritize national brownie points over his own state’s flagship university.
