It might be time to ditch the anthem before athletic contests. ** -- Cav113 04/19/2021 3:45PM

This. You don't honor anything by attaching it to a Lions preseason game. -- CavMan1 04/19/2021 6:50PM

Why? ** -- Seattle .Hoo 04/19/2021 5:13PM

Because its an entertainment event. Think how silly it would be if we -- Plano Hoo 04/19/2021 6:03PM

Let me be clear; I'm ambivalent. At live sporting events I might be in the -- Seattle .Hoo 04/19/2021 6:17PM

I noticed this weekend some baseball games played -- Hoogle.com 04/19/2021 4:22PM

This. ** -- HTrain90 04/19/2021 3:54PM

Long overdue. Ever been to a complex with multiple games going on. Pitcher -- Molina 04/19/2021 3:51PM

Need to go ahead and remove the American Flag from those same venues ** -- Tuckahokie 04/19/2021 3:53PM

I wouldn’t do that. July 4, Opening Days ... I’d be fine with the anthem. ** -- Molina 04/19/2021 3:57PM

Nah. ** -- Hoogle.com 04/19/2021 4:22PM

Oh brother...it is endless ** -- Tuckahokie 04/19/2021 3:34PM

VT is in trouble if the player's story can be corroborated. ** -- Blah 04/19/2021 3:26PM

Why? Is it because they are a public school vs private school? -- tchoo 04/19/2021 3:43PM

Even in private businesses, there are protections to one's beliefs ... -- Blah 04/19/2021 4:03PM

You have a protection from discrimination due to your political beliefs? -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 5:32PM

And you can't fire career professionals from the DOJ for being a Democrat. -- Blah 04/19/2021 5:38PM

That's different. There are protections to keep non political -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 5:41PM

I see your point, but I can definitely see that specific case ... -- Blah 04/19/2021 5:51PM

Under that fact pattern...why couldn’t shs sue the red hen? -- tchoo 04/19/2021 4:50PM

In America, you can sue anyone. You just have to convince ... -- Blah 04/19/2021 5:01PM

Ugh. I actually agree with her view as stated in the complaint. I agree -- CAVern 04/19/2021 3:19PM

Color me a little skeptical. If she was helping VT win -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 3:13PM

You are assuming the coach isn’t some woke snowflake -- TomKazanski 04/19/2021 3:40PM

Yes. I am assuming he is not a snowflake like you. I could be wrong -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 5:46PM

I don't really think that is the point -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:36PM

The thing that might make sense is that there was more to it than just not -- CAVern 04/19/2021 3:26PM

I think that explanation makes more sense ** -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 3:42PM

I’d guess there was not kneeling and being vocal about her stance in -- Molina 04/19/2021 3:38PM

She started 37 games her first two years, so the coach must’ve thought she -- JMHoo 04/19/2021 3:25PM

Yeah. No one has ever started and then -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 3:28PM

Thought the story said she started the game she didn't kneel for. -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 3:33PM

Coach is from Cali .... nuf said. ** -- DexterLake 04/19/2021 7:25PM

In your thorough reading of the article, did you pick up on the fact -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 5:25PM

Yes, and I also read the other girl was on scholarship, and yes, I can -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 5:42PM

Nothing screams Woke like Coach Chugger from Cali. ** -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 3:11PM

So woke is bad to you? ** -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:34PM

When you can't tolerate someone that refuses to kneel for the anthem? -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 3:36PM

That's pathetic -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:38PM

To be fair, the self-proclaimed most woke can be quite intolerant and -- Molina 04/19/2021 3:41PM

Agreed. ** -- HoosWillWin 04/19/2021 4:13PM

Then that's not being woke that's being intolerant. ** -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:50PM

Fair point. It’s bad for P.R. ** -- Molina 04/19/2021 3:52PM

What do you think happened here? Chugger certainly didn't share your level -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 3:41PM

The woke are extremely tolerant, as long as you agree with them ** -- Tuckahokie 04/19/2021 3:43PM

Sounds like Trumpists more than those I know who I'd label woke ** -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:53PM

Coach Charles Chugger’s Convicted Cali Congressman (R) Duncan Trumpy Hunter -- Molina 04/19/2021 3:34PM

Force him to have First Amendment training. LOL. I love it. ** -- Hokieesith 04/19/2021 3:11PM

Do you feel strongly people should be able to kneel or not kneel? ** -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:10PM

Only before Zod ** -- HokieDan95 04/19/2021 3:16PM

OK points for humor -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 4:42PM

I didn't take a stance here. I dropped the link without comment. -- HokieDan95 04/19/2021 5:48PM

So I assume you felt the same way with the NFL situation? ** -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 9:27PM

Because its an entertainment event. Think how silly it would be if we
