Standing for the anthem vs Kneeling, yeah if we get stands back in the stadium that debate will be back, heck it only took Hinds a few days into 2021 to throw the topic back out for debate. I always thought it would be considered by some to be much more disrespectful for a team or player to refuse to come out on the field for the national anthem (I believe this was done a few times in 2019) or (I do not think anyone has done this yet) turn their back on the anthem….
This pandemic is never going to be history. The powers that be like the powers it has given them and they will not relinquish those powers anytime soon. There is always going to be a “spike” or a “mutation” or some other “event” that will prolong this emergency of a disease that is 99+% survivable indefinitely. … and then look for them to add other things to the list of “emergency matters of public health” to extend even more control.

Playing the anthem at all is stupid. Stadiums should play the home team’s fight song.

Get rid of “SJW” players. We pay for play, not politics, so leave your politics off the field.
