I'm not exactly sure it's as divisive or as bad to break this tradition as the author here makes out. After all, about two thirds of the population agree with President Trump that these pampered millionaire football stars who think they are entitled to special privileges should not take a knee during the playing of the Star Spangled Banner.

I 100% agree that the president has it right and these entitled crybabies need to stop it with this taking a knee crap during the National Anthem. I'm glad he said it. They started it by politicizing sports with taking a knee. There are so many other avenues open to them to protest did they really have to disrespect the flag, the anthem, and the country that gave them so much?

Prayer and I sometimes agree and sometimes disagree. On this issue we agree. And he is right, President Trump walked into it by calling the players who kneel SOBs. Had he expressed it differently he'd have still been vilified but more Americans would be on his side in this.
