It may also be a good opportunity to become more open minded. Learn something new about other cultures.
Great game. They all seem to be close these days. I believe it had one of the highest audiences of all time.

Absolutely no problem with them playing that
SONG. Play it at halftime. Let the cheerleaders perform to it.
DO NOT equate it with our
ONE AND ONLY national anthem,
DO NOT try to elevate it to something that it is not. I love
CHOOSING to learn about "other cultures", but not having it shoved down my throat as a so-called "national anthem". I'm going to Africa in 6 months, will be sitting in at a school, having dinner with locals and learning about a
DIFFERENT culture.
THIS is America-we are supposed to be
ONE NATION, we should not embrace division.
