Bob806 Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 I never knew this existed. Seems odd to me. We need to promote unity, here comes more (potential) division. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

htownbrown Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 I don't think it's replacing the regular anthem, just an additional song if I'm reading it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiamat63 Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 It's a very pretty song, especially when done by the wonderful Aretha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at this point I'll watch NFL games + an extra song, if that's what it takes. What is going to piss most people off, is when they stand for one song and kneel for the other.

gumby73 Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 all espn has left is "unknown sources"... when a link has a nfl source confirming it? than we might have something..

The Cysko Kid Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 How is having a seperate "black" national anthem not promoting "black nationalism"? By the way the southern poverty law center who is the self proclaimed racism watchdog of the country lists, like, double the number of black nationalist groups as white nationalist groups but no one seems to admit that's problematic.
