        Texans-Bears saw a lot of players without hands over hearts, but none sitting or kneeling.

                  It's about showing respect for those that died for your freedom.

                  Sucks that you have to take your hat off though.

                        Screen shots of the hamburger holding up his black power fist were all over the national telecasts this morning.

                              Dolphins players Arian Foster, Jelani Jenkins, Michael Thomas and Kenny Stills took a knee during the national anthem.

                                    What does showing respect have to do with a hat? I can show respect with a hat on. Seems artibrary to say "take your hat off for the natl anthem."

                                      When your mother invites you out of the basement, and you make that 20 foot trek upstairs, and she cooks a warm, homemade meal for you, do you take off your hat?

                                      Same thing applies here.

                                      Show some respect, punk.

                                          Out of the basement? I have a family of my own, brother.

                                          My Mom does not give 2 fukks whether I take my hat off at the dinner table, bc she is just happy to see me. That is what's important.

                                          You don't know what you are talking about.

                                            I actually have an enviable head of hair, thank you. So, yes, I do take my hat off.

                                            I just don't think I should be expected to do something, just bc everyone else wants me to.

                                            I never said I don't take my hat off. I do, actually. I just think it's silly that everyone makes such a big deal about it. I could care less what others do if it does not directly affect my, or someone else's, quality of life.

                                              When your mother passes away, which hopefully won't be for a very long time, will you be showing up at her funeral wearing shorts and a hat?

                                                  No, I will try to look nice, bc I like to look nice.

                                                  What if someone shows up wearing shorts and a hat? Should I scoff at them, or should I thank them for being there? I guess it just depends on what is important to "you."

                                                      What if someone shows up wearing shorts and a hat? Should I scoff at them, or should I thank them for being there? I guess it just depends on what is important to "you."
                                                      If you're comfortable with people disrespecting your mom, I guess I won't argue with you.

                                                        During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform should stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Men not in uniform should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should render the military salute at the first note of the anthem and retain this position until the last note. When the flag is not displayed, those present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed there.

                                                              That is exactly what I do. But I don't judge others who don't. This is supposed to be a free country, but I guess we all know, deep down, that it's not true.

The reason it is free and you are not speaking German, is because a nation comprised of our grandfathers answered the call and fought to keep it free. It's ashamed that so many d-bags have allowed this, well, people can do what they want, attitude to prevail.

I think it's humorous that a bunch of pussies who don't sign up to serve can't manage to show respect for a few minutes for those who have.

At every peewee game, at every varsity game, at every band competition. Fukk. If it's so special, stop treating it like a Justin Bieber song and playing it everywhere I go. Can't a game just be a game? Christ on a bike!
