No judgement, but the curious thing is:
Here in the Netherlands, the Dutch fans would not be bothered wether the players would kneel, stand on their head or whatever during the national anthem. They're usually fully occupied butchering the poor song themselves
Nobody said they couldn't do it...have at it- I just won't watch or support their protest.Thanks for making a political post where it was 100% not needed, or wanted. But since you decided to go there, I'll give you my two cents whether you like or not.
As a United States Army Veteran I swore an oath to defend the constitution of the United States of America. That very constitution guarantees the right to peacefully protest what you believe in, even if i don't agree with it. So, yeah, I don't let it get my nickers in a bunch, or ruin a sport I love. I'm proud to live in a country where protesting is allowed.
Besides, demanding and telling them they can't or should not, is about the most Un-American thing ever. Hell, its kind of North Koreany.
So excuse me if I really don't care if you like the sport or not. Excuse me if I don't care that an obvious joke of a meme triggered you.
As for me, I'm going to make those chicken wings, drink some beer, and enjoy the Super Bowl with a bunch of other veterans that don't care either.
You sure that wasn't a joke response?That one about the pistons gong to the top of the cylinder reminds me of answer I saw in Popular Mechanics magazine in the early 70's. Someone wrote in and asked why their car radio reception fluctuated as they drove. The magazine's response was that was due to the Doppler Effect, where the speed of the car changed the frequency of the radios waves received and that this effect was a reason why beltways were so popular for travel around cities, since the constant radius keeps the Doppler Effect from being a problem.
This kind of an answer leaves you dumbfounded, since no one stupid enough to believe that should possess the ability to write it down, never mind being hired by a magazine.

Once, while working grilling brats during Oktoberfest at the local German-American club, I was approached by a woman, who reached into her jacket and pulled out a veggie patty, and asked if she could slip it on the grille.
Wait! You just said you (& I ) served to allow such in the USA.I couldn't have done it. You are a better man than me.
Every man has his limit.Wait! You just said you (& I ) served to allow such in the USA.

It was NOT the April issue! And there was another response that I do not recall but was nearly as inane as that one.You sure that wasn't a joke response?
