I can’t remember the last time I watched a game and saw an athlete take a knee during the anthem, but hey congrats NASCAR.

Did the Op say he was at the race?

My assumption was that he was watching it on TV; and I’ve watched dozens if not hundreds of games in the last two years on TV. But, yes I’ve been to many games in the last few years including most of the Clemson games.

Media doesn’t cover it and it’s not being done near as much bc there’s no longer that agenda to push or act like trump was to blame for everything going on in the world lol

If the media has stopped making a big deal out of then that is a step in the right direction. Kind of like not showing the attention seekers who run on the field during the game looking for their 15 seconds as well.

NFL except for the Super Bowl quit showing the National Anthem to avoid controversy. Sad!

That’s 100% false

NBC showed every second of Mickey Guyton’s fabulous rendition of the anthem including many shots of both benches. The only person kneeling was the camera man; let’s make sure he never works again

Showing the national anthem pregame for NFL games on

TV has never been done regularly, let alone it not being shown due to controversy. You're just making up stuff.
TV has always gotten better ratings showing pregame shows right up until kickoff rather than showing pregame activities on teh field.
The exception is normally the division championship games and super bowl.
Sorry it doesn't fit your stupid agenda but I thought I'd just clear it up for ya.

They didn't zoom the camera on the guy and give him the attention that he obviously desperately needs but he was in the middle right in front of the flag

I didn't see one player at the Super Bowl either. Did someone do it there? I didn't see anyone.

U S the camera is not going to make a spectacle of someone kneeling anymore. They have even cut it out of the pregame tv coverage again minus the Super Bowl. Just too much bad publicity. I believe they started that last season.

I doubt anyone did it anyway. There were only a few guys usually anyway. That ship has sailed. It was never a big deal anyway. The people complaining about that were all pretty quiet about cops getting beaten with flag poles with the American flags on them and people busting out windows with the flag at our Capitol on January 6th. Taking a knee wasn't that big of a deal. The league as a whole wasn't doing that consistently. People were just looking for something to be angry about imo.

Yea it was a few like in everything that puts the black eye on everyone. Drama is what keeps the news in business these days. Not many true journalists anymore.

I stopped watching( unless I am in attendance) the National Anthem at all sporting events, and it has nothing to do with kneeling. I stopped watching it because I get nausea from hearing how some, not all, but some of these so called "entertainers" either total botch the anthem or seem to think they can take what ever liberty's they want in performing it.

Leftie you hit that on the head. Some of the renditions are awful imo, but some people must think it’s great I guess.
