Oh, and I actually do generally participate in the whole Anthem thing. Just think it needs to be questioned.

Duke, you're supposed to use that Lost/Inception thing when someone posts something that doesn't make sense.
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
Yes, classic Sven. Making a perfectly rational and salient point.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)

Not if it isn't a competition that isn't international.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
International wise, sure. But that's like rooting for your favorite team.
I could be born and living in Nigeria and and I'd say the same thing (that Nigeria is the best country in the world).Quoting megladon8 (view post)
He totally ignored my post on why you should stand and remove your hat! He's making a fuss over probably the biggest NON-issue I think I've ever heard.Quoting Spinal (view post)
You're not respecting the person in the stands. You're giving respect to the person singing down below. It's meant to be a moment of quietness.Quoting Spinal (view post)

Well then I think it's pretty sad that you're so blindly patriotic.
I don't dislike America by any means - I mean, I'm working my ass off to be able to live there.
But best country in the world? Not by a long shot. And neither is Canada.

I dont think it's sad. I have my reasons much like your have yours.
I've been to a jillion sporting events and never heard anyone break out a U-S-A chant.
Maybe you're thinking of Rocky IV when Apollo was killed?

Of course you would. People would always be leaving you enormous sums of money. All you would need is someone overseas to assist you in transferring this large sum in exchange for a monetary reward.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)

Also have no problem with saying your country is #1 so long as you respect the other countries around you at the same time. And people do tend to take that in the wrong way.Quoting Spinal (view post)
I'd probably just send random e-mails out to people in the US telling them I'll pay them money if they send me more money.Quoting Spinal (view post)

What would your reasons be for thinking Nigeria is the greatest country in the world?
If you think a country is the greatest country in the world just because that's where you were born, that's not "having your reasons".
If I was a black man born in South Africa I would certainly not think it was the greatest country in the world. "I love oppression! White people are better than me...this is great!"

At sporting events where one side is American and the other is not, yes. At sporting events where both teams are American, never.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
The wave is utterly obnoxious. Please respect my desire to watch the game and not stand and sit every 45 seconds and wave my hands in the air like an idiot.Quoting Spun Lepton (view post)

What would be the opposite of the Lost/Inception picture?Quoting Ezee E (view post)
*insert it here*
I didn't ignore it. I just don't think it showed why I need to respect anything. I'm pretty sure the players would still get that adrenaline if I was sitting down. And I'm pretty sure moments of silence can be observed while sitting.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Also, the fuss here is entirely with you. I don't care at all, about standing or the song. I'm just still confused as to why you think I need to respect you because you like to stand.
Aaaand we've hit on the crux of the problem.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Well I don't live there nor would I ever travel there so I can't answer your questions. I was just using that country as a hyperbole example. Insert any country into my example and that's my point.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
So why do I have to remove my hat, stand up and face the flag? As long as I'm quiet, why can't I just sit?Quoting Ezee E (view post)

The wave is silly. It's a sign of boredom from fans who don't understand the game or when there's just nothing left to root for.Quoting Spinal (view post)

...what's your point?
You freely admit that the only reason you love America best is because you were born there.
That's...exactly the problem I have with statements like that.
