I’m with him but man what a last name
What has happened that now STANDING during the anthem is the outlier. What a joke.
Coonrad was a nobody until he dealt in Augusta and went from unranked to top 15 prospect in their farm system
Only white supremecist stand for the national anthem
It's now part of America's subculture to actually stand for the National Anthem.
It’s extremely weird the national anthem is played before sports to begin with.
Only to you. Enjoy the opportunity and life this country provides you. I know you won’t though.
Because that’s what playing the national anthem before a sporting event does for you?
if that’s the case why don’t they play it before your job every day?
Hopefully more follow his lead.
It’s played every morning at my work.
I’ve heard this argument more and more lately and it’s completely apples to oranges. Sports aren’t an everyday job. Do thousands of people pay a lot of money and take hours out of their day to watch you work?
No, I didn’t say that. Just pointing out some differences between sports and your job. A sporting event is not the same as clocking in as a CPA, mechanic, insurance adjuster, garbage man, etc.
It’s not weird at all. Many professions used to wear American flag patches on their uniforms. We used to be a much more patriotic country overall.
So you can trash our business on social media? No thanks commie
Because it’s literally never done before anyone else’s job except government employees.
hell the government paid professional leagues millions of dollars to show it ok tv for the first time on a regular basis in 2009 as a way to recruit people to join the armed services.
No it’s a hell no to the likes of you and @iceheart08 He is well practiced trashing conservative businesses in Colorado.
I mean I get the differences. Doesn’t mean there is a good reason it’s played then. So we can show how patriotic we are before a ball game? Is that the only way how? It seems it’s the only way people care, or at least care the most. Which seems odd as well.
I’m sorry, I’m just a simple Clemson graduate. Please explain to me where I missed the part that he was the only one standing and it’s a news story.
I mean, most traditions are pretty weird.
Trying to justify an intentionally contrarian action by saying the tradition is weird is so baseless.
Did I read the article wron ? Wtf does this have to do with the national anthem ? He stood during the BLM portion . Nearly everyone stood for the anthe .
In other news, Sam Coonrod will be assigned to AA Pawtucket very soon.
My friend starts for the giants. There would have been more standing had they not thought it may impact their contracts. Sad to hear this is where we are as a society.
