Just turned on CBS to see if they'd air the national anthem and they did not.
Now, I'm turning off CBS to go clean my toaster.
How about the Nats game? Did they behave?
No patriot should watch any NFL game, IMHO.
Yeah, I saw that. Stadium looks kinda empty, as well.

Is there a football game tonight?
I don’t watch Foosball often but I don’t ever remember them televising the anthem. Seems like they have always used that time for commercials.
As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind.
Just turned it on to check
Stadium looks full to me
Lower part is filled. Not too many wide shots of upper tier. Might have filled up in last 15 minutes, but was very sparse short time before kickoff.
Yeah. Texas State vs Louisiana Lafayette.
Ragin Cajuns up 14-0 at halftime.
Agreed
Why would you even be watching? NFL is banned here. MLB iplayoff is on, or are all of your sock drawers organized?
A choice between baseball and sock organizing? This is difficult...........
No anthem = no upset fans.
There were a number of preachers outside the Panther’s stadium protesting.
I hope the IRS was there taking names so the preacher’s church can lose their tax-free status.
bgill you’ve got it! By not showing the players with this continued attack upon the people of the US and their history of heroes, it gives the league a chance to try to hide the actions that are cutting the incoming funds so they can do something to try to get the public to forget it. And with the displayed history of people, they will.
I won’t. I’m one of those people that they callously and ruthlessly stepped on to try to prove a point they have done nothing else to accomplish. And there are so many they disrespected in their simpleminded efforts to get respect they have not indicated they deserve with these actions. And the only excuse they came up with came out of the Denver Broncos locker room when they lied about not knowing their actions were insolent. Liars and cowards.

Kind of patheric, as if we can’t just check social media and find out right away?
Owners need to grow a pair and put their foot down. Mandate standing for the anthem
I turned tv on to see what teams would do. CBS did not televise the anthem.
What cowards! They deprived good people of a newsworthy event.
I changed the station.
I think after the Anthem, at least for awhile, they should play this.
