    Chicago National Anthem

    If you didnt see them bring the blackhawks guy out for the national anthem u missed out and make sure to catch it this weekend.

    Its blackhawk tradition to cheer through the whole thing, its so intense and so loud and having him do it at the bears game was second to none.

    Not sure why my youtube didnt embed properly. But watch it on youtube. Its rowdy as hell.

    A bunch of marines in Iraq and Afghanistan emailed the Dan Patrick Show and said they love it and think its awesome.

    During the blackhawks stanley cup run last year you should hear how loud it was during the playoffs and whole season. It fires you up like you would not believe.

    I don't understand why they even play the national anthem at sporting events anyways.

    At the Olympics is makes sense because your are representing your country competing against another country but for each hockey game or baseball game? Kinda silly if you ask me.

    Yep, that was Wayne alright. The new guy is Jim Kornelius (Quite certain I butchered the spelling on his last name)

    The UC was insane last year. I was cool to see it recreated at Soldier Field last weekend and I expect it to be even better this weekend with what's on the line.

    And to those that say it's disrespectful, how can something be disrespectful that is intended to honor?
