So many people are so full of shite

Pretending to be moved to tears and swelling with pride every time you hear the national anthem is just the Republican virtue signaling version of Democrats claiming maple syrup brands are racist.

You’re all a bunch of cuckolds and sky screamers.

If your Patriotism begins and ends with the National Anthem being played before a sporting event you might want to re-evaluate it.

Personally, I don't really care one way or another. I wouldn't seeing it regulated to big events and international competition. It doesn't affect how I feel about this country.

you don't have to exaggerate to pretend like you have a point.

what is the point is the singing of the anthem is not anyone's problem its been done for decades upon decades. removing the anthem does not fix a single thing about anyones problems nor any systemic problems in this country or relations. its absolutely just the cancel culture looking to grab hold of anything next.

I’m not the one melting about something that most people don’t even know happens.

I’m completely indifferent on it being played. There’s just really no reason to play it when it’s not an international competition. If they want to play it before, fine. If they don’t, fine. Anyone acting like they’re offended and hurt is just looking for attention or just pretending to be more patriotic than others.

Taking a stand against cancel culture has long been a priority for many. It hasn't been stopped and won't be stopped.

Cuban couldn't even verbalize why they wanted to stop playing it. They are the bitches.

I am sorry for your TDS. He did win bigly though.

She should be along with Hunter and the majority of politicians, but we see how selective the DOJ is at actually conducting impartial investigations.

Yea it hasn't disappeared, but the MSM narrative has definitely changed. Can't really blame Trump for everything any more.

All that said, as to the main topic of this thread, I am sure it has already been stated, but you play the anthem and stand for your flag because you honor, pride, and gratitude to the country that has given you the opportunity to make a great living playing a sport. I don't care who is president. I don't care about your personal/social issues. You stand and honor your flag/country.

Yep this is the most ironic part. Most of these people talk shite about liberal virtue signaling but they are doing it right now.

I don't know. You seem to be more interested in all that than I am. Feel free to share though.
