    - Ah it's been said regular season games are going to avoid it? -- nm - Bacon Sep 6, 18:08 1

    - We don't give a rat's ass about the anthem per se, but the whole issue must be marginally deflating. - Marlowe Sep 6, 17:59 3
      - Or just find an illegal stream. Split the difference. I appreciate your stance though, that's good of you. -- nm - colin Sep 6, 18:04 2
        
        There's a side of me that wants to see the ratings go up so Drumpf will have yet another reason to throw a hissy fit. (NM) - Marlowe Sep 6, 18:09 1

        Daaang. Its 10 minutes all down hill on a bike to our closest, not bad. Coming back sucks. -- nm - colin Sep 6, 17:46 8
        
        they don't let breweries open anywhere near me. the two that are feasibly transit/walkable aren't very good. - mafic Sep 6, 17:50 7
