Here's a thought when it comes to the national anthem. Let's get rid of it. My reasoning behind it is it's causing an issue. Now I don't want to get religious, but I'll tell you this, this song won't get you into the heavens. It won't get you in good graces with God. And for those that are not religious, it's not going to prolong your life and help you live hundreds and thousands of years. You have to understand that we've allowed words to separate Humanity. You didn't write it, I didn't write it, the founding fathers wrote what we call or is known as the Constitution which states freedom of speech!!! So with that said, let's just get rid of the anthem and this creates a neutral ground for us all to enjoy ourselves

I don't know of any football team that is going overseas to fight for our country. The key takeaway is I never said player, I said Team. I don't believe these teams are trained for combat. So again, why do we have an Anthem in the first place when it comes to the game of sports?

Rather than point out any inaccuracies in history, we need to accept the truth of free speech. Let's ease the tension and seize the opportunity to correct an issue that is causing separation and robbing us of enjoyment.
