Amazing how everyone was in an uproar when Kapernuts started kneeling. then we had the whole "look at me" followers doing the same.

because that was done as an intentional show of disrespect.

this is just a standard pregame routine done by many teams in multiple sports that has been going on for generations with absolutely no intent on it being disrespectful.

What's the big deal for some kids to stand to honor our fallen and take a moment to reflect on why we don't have bombs being dropped on our homes.

the football team has been in the locker room for pregame and the anthem since at least the early 1960's (maybe longer).
The women's basketball team has been doing this for at least 3 years (maybe longer).

if this was such an important issue, why didn't he (and everyone else complaining) say something prior to somebody posting a shitty video from a cell phone Monday night?


Hell, the high school team I played on was in the locker room for the anthem back in the 90s.

it is a widespread common practice for teams to go back to locker room after pregame stretches and warm ups.
the bands then take the field and play they anthem while the teams are in the locker room.

has absolutely nothing to do with protests or disrespect.

even the military academies do this.
