Communal singing is a national balm

I was at the US/Aussie match when we sang Country Roads along with some other songs as an entire stadium. Goose bumps.

But way more than that - I can't remember ever a US crowd so lustily singing the National Anthem. Usually, the Euros put us to shame on such matters.

Seriously. Singing in groups is good for the soul. Necessary, I would say.

And another thing: we just watched a match in the Bay Area with a mostly black team. Not only did I not see anyone "taking a knee". Rather, I saw the crowd and the TEAM singing those glorious lyrics together.

i think most of the Outlaws would find another hobby if they knew what most of our players think about….literally anything

remember a few years back when reddit freaked out over an instagram post that had Pulisic and a gun in the same frame?

can you imagine? captain america being within a square mile of a firearm?

These outlaws have become a stain on the USMNT and their whole existence needs to be evaporated.

Or when he was dribbling over a fish on a boat and when they freaked out him he posted something super passive aggressive in response

I still see some on the soccer subreddits melting because he did the Trump dance a few years ago after scoring.

Join the choir & let it rip! You don't have to be a good singer - there's strength in numbers. And a lot of places are doing Patriotic concerts this year for the 250th.

Covid + the Methodist/Episcopalian church separation crap has hurt a lot of community choirs. They are dying for people, especially men, and are a great place to meet 10-20+ awesome new people

Well, it was the Bay Area and the team was mostly black, so congrats on the sex I guess.
