Then Republicans are right. America the Beautiful is a fine little tune but it's way better than a jingoistic flag masturbation session about a sweet goal line stand in a game we got blown out like 64-7.

I think it's a great song because it celebrates the time Baltimore properly defended itself while Washington, in true DC fashion, poo poo the bed and was burned to the ground. :smug:

Just a reminder that Our Dumb President continues to confuse the Eagles with the Pittsburgh Steelers, which was the team last season that stayed in the locker room for the anthem prior to one game. That and nobody around him is bothering to correct him.

He's not. The NFL caved on kneeling and said players could stay in the locker room, he's complaining about that too.



Big shock players pointed out they would get treated the same whether it was kneeling or staying in the locker room.

No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

The Star-Spangled Banner is three-fifths good song, but then you get to the pro-slavery verse and welp

"This Land is Your Land" should be the national anthem. Especially the verse about private property.

The national anthem should be changed to Cotton Eyed Joe by Rednex. Everyone in the stadium should stand solemnly at attention as the entirety of Cotton Eyed Joe by Rednex plays over the stadium loudspeaker. Anyone showing disresepct toward our troops by kneeling during Cotton Eyed Joe by Rednex should be shown the door.

If you like a sports team in a league that is mostly white, they will go to the white house for a Republican president. Because that team is guaranteed to be majority rich, white, male, and possibly not college educated.

The interesting thing about the NBA and NFL is that they are both majority black, and they both require most draftees to have attended college.

The NFL and NBA require most draftees to attend college? Someone tell the two greatest players of this generation Kobe Bryant and LeBron James that they have to attend college to get drafted.

tbh im not sure any team bothered protesting visiting the presidential visit beyond 1 or 2 guys per team before Obama. it was just a part of winning the title and back then :decorum: dictated that it was just really cool meeting the president.

this is not what I wanted
So as a non-american I've never paid much attention to individual senators and house reps before but in the past year and a half I've discovered that they all seem to be totally insane and hold absurd beliefs and opinions like "islands can tip over and sink" or "God wouldn't let climate change be real" or "in cases of legitimate rape the body has ways of shutting the whole thing down" or "how does Facebook make money when it's free" and my question is how the gently caress did these clowns get into power in the first place

I mean, we have lovely politicians where I'm from too but I don't think any of them have sub-primary-school-level knowledge on so many important issues (because they'd get immediately called out for it). What the gently caress is wrong with your country
