its no wonder americans are so blindly nationalistic.
this reminds me of an eastern european may day celebration!
I personally believe that the Superbowl would be best served by rotating this honor between the service choirs: Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard. That would mean far more to me than the celeb dejoure.
The better team did not win yesterday. The team with the fewer turnovers did.
Thats all I have to say about that.
Very well said, Fred.I'll give you my take on the Superbowl opening ceremonies.
Reading the Declaration of Independence is a good reminder for those is Washington that government has exceeded our limits before and is tapdancing on our last raw nerve again...
The singing of America the Beautiful and the National Anthem was a travesty. No, an embarrassment. The diamond formation also upset me. A country at war ALWAYS performs the "missing man" formation at flyovers.
I was angry before the game ever began.
I have brought home friends in flag covered caskets, I've had to write letters to the families of men under my command that I've lost. I've handed the flag over to weeping mothers, fathers and wives, thanking them on behalf of a greatful nation, knowing our expression of gratitude pales in comparision to their pain. I've carried our flag into many battles on my shoulder and on our aircraft's tail. I've served among the finest men and women that have ever worn the uniform and seen their selfless sacrifice first hand. And as a hospital chaplain after leaving active duty, I've see the generation before me in VA hospitals approaching their final hours, and the generation that served after me learning how to live with missing limbs.
So believe me when I tell you that performing our nation's anthem isn't a chance to put your own style on it. it is an honor afforded you, so please sing it as scored. I personally believe that the Superbowl would be best served by rotating this honor between the service choirs: Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard. That would mean far more to me than the celeb dejoure.
And no, my friend, we're not blindly nationalistic. We know too well our failings as a people and a government. What stirs in our hearts is the belief that the nation has the potential to rise higher that the people who currently reside and govern it at any given time. We have seen moments when it happens and it gives us hope.
And here's the kicker. The freedom we hold so dear, we don't guard as a treasure. It is something we aspire to share with all mankind because we don't look at it as an American birthright, it is the birthright that comes with being human, part of the dignity inherent in every human person.
The better team did not win yesterday. The team with the fewer turnovers did.
Thats all I have to say about that.
lol great episode.To all the Steelers fans...
lol great episode.
They did. Mostly because the Stillers couldn't defend their passes, but we nearly pulled through on the last drive. Getting a TD / First Down would have put us a point over the Packers.I have a strange feeling the Packers will win.
