    Many moons ago..........I suggested that the undies change their nicknames to "The Red Rockets".............

    Seems a little redundant to recycle similar content just for giggles.

    I personally don't care what Kaepernick does, but I can see how people are getting bent about it. I don't know if it is the action itself that is offending anyone but rather whose time is he protesting on? If the NFL is dependent on consumers to fund the league, then he is protesting on the consumer's time. They are also allowed to express their displeasure with protests on their time and money by not participating in supporting the NFL and the entities that support the NFL. It would be very apparent the NFL cares less how they are portraying their league allowing protests on the time and dime of the consumers of their product. To me, that doesn't seem like a very good business model.

    NDSU fans are not protesting anything and they are the consumers. If you are personally offended by their actions, you also have the right to not participate. Stay home and watch reruns of The Andy Griffith show. If the numbers of non-support reach some critical level, there will have to be some behavioral changes. Until then, it is quite obvious there isn't a problem.

    Two entirely different scenarios with two entirely different audiences with different perceptions.

    Who said they were offended by Kaepernick's anthem behavior? I thought you were the one to bring this up.
    Hail the BISON!!!

    You're right, I did. Scenarios are more similar than people think.

    The only similarity I see is people complaining. One's a tradition that isn't meant as an insult to anyone. The other involves an individual trying to use his celebrity to get society to talk about an issue that unfortunately is still not solved while at the same time not trying offend the military. Hence, why he takes a knee as oppose to sitting on the bench. I'm pretty sure saying "Bison" instead of "Brave" has nothing to do about bringing up social issues other than anyone can say it if they want to.
    Hail the BISON!!!

    Maybe if we had a better song for a National Anthem all these issues would go away.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    Actually we have one of the only decent anthems on the planet. Most of them are hideously ugly sounding songs
