Packers'
national anthem plans continue to rile fans
GREEN BAY - A request by Green
Bay Packers players for fans to join them in a show of unity during the
national anthem before their game Thursday apparently did little to
calm the debate.
Packers fans on Wednesday continued
to blast the NFL, the team and players for what they perceive as showing
disrespect for the nation, the flag, the military or the national anthem
by sitting, kneeling, remaining in the locker room or locking arms during the
national anthem. Supporters say players are peacefully exercising their
free speech rights on the best stage available.
