Regarding the genuflecting football
players, I don't see where lies the disrespect. Having been raised
Catholic, I've always known that to be an act not only of respect but
worship. If there is offense it might be found in the appropriating
of it for the NFL which should be worshiped legs up on a couch with
a fistful of pretzels and a can of Schlitz.
As far as the national anthem is
concerned, we're supposed to worship that with human sacrifice. And
we do. I just fail to see how any of this is unpatriotic. Perhaps
inquiring minds should be wondering why Americans are inundated in
patriotic songs at every televised sports event. Will an even
greater sacrifice soon be required of us?
