Whatever happens.... I assure you the game will entertain you. This time last year, they didn't even broadcast the national anthem for our season opener... They're only doing it now in the hopes that something happens.

Also... I think by this point, we're ALL aware of these issues. It's only been 100 straight days of coverage. File me away in the "I don't care what they do, I'm gonna watch the game with my friend I haven't seen since pre Covid 19, and enjoy my damn self" category.

I was reading this and for some reason I had a thought. Maybe we assume it's a kneeling or locker room thing because that's what was thrown at us. Maybe it's a respectable gesture and also something that still honors the flag? Maybe that's why we're not being told? The underground railroad march was by far the best message I've seen from any sports organization. With the leadership in the clubhouse and FO, this may be something just as classy and not offensive to one side or the other? Now, I kind of look forward to seeing what they do. After all, if your going to send a message, show the rest in the sports world how it should be done. Lead by example.
