PLEASE STAND

If you are at a sporting event, and unless you're the age of one, you know that the national anthem is going to be played to precede the game.

Therefore, you know that at said time when Dan Baker or Matt Cord asks, "Please rise as we honor our country with the singing/playing of our national anthem." You lift your lid off if you're donning a cap.

Now, 95 or maybe even 99 percent of the people of attenance will take their hats off. This is of course out of the respect this great land we live in and all we have fought for. For those people who choose not to remove their hat out of respect, shame on them, and in many ways it is abhorrent and inexcusable. A lot of times also I just don't get it - is it that hard to take it off?







But I ask you this, what is more unexcusable, the not removing of the hat in which for or five people actually take notice because they are out of beer, or the first class Philadephian garbage citizen that screams at the top of his lungs to make sure everyone sees what he sees with a profound announcement, "take your fucking hat off!"

You see the person that didn't take off his hat is clearly disrespectful. But what is to be said of our young friend who now has bought attention to not a singal individual, but a wholde section of people, some of which may have kids and aren't to familiar with the "fucking" adjective that the young trash individual used like vinegar on fish and chips.

I know this - Fuck'em both.

I'm not going to Sixers games anymore, even if the tickets are free. Your fans, your fraud, your fucking Sixers. Fan appreciation? I appreciate that fact that I won't have to put any more sixers fucking hats on next to never. They SMD, LMB and TMS!
