re: #160 ObserverArt

I heard an interesting way for the NFL and maybe other sports to handle the whole National Anthem BS yesterday on the Dan Patrick show.

One of his contributors who discusses NFL stuff said they should do away from having the National Anthem.

Instead have an “NFL Celebrates America and Our Military Defenders” opening where the can have someone on the filed from the military to be honored, then have some graphics and maybe a film up on the big displays…play some patriotic type dramatic music and be done with it.

His whole point was to get away from the fighting over the Anthem by just not using it. I agree. But Trumpers will still make it a thing.

Why the fuck does the NFL have to do anything that has anything to do with the military in the first place? (I know why they started, but why the fuck do they need to continue?)

What does the military have to do with football? Or basketball? Or baseball? It’s just all so convoluted to me.
