The majority of players failed to face the flag and place their hand over their heart. Some are ok with them acting this way, others are not. Citing flag code is not going to change minds.

Any other suggestions?

This is mainly a political matter for those team members so we should not be discussing it here. I mean the flag saluting fight.

How about the German team! 6 goals over Morocco. Germany women's national football team - Wikipedia

Germany at the FIFA Women's World Cup - Wikipedia

Is there a reason to make untrue statements? The leaders of the team have made it clear that they do not love this country or its values.

Actually, some of the freshest fish in the US is in Louisville, KY.

The reason why is that when the fish are caught in say, Alaska, they are immediately put on ice and shipped overnight via Fed Ex, which has a major hub in Louisville. So restaurants there get their fish faster.

Of course if you mean fresh caught and brought to the restaurant, you would be correct.
