Is this serious or a joke? I can't tell which one it's supposed to be.

If this was the National Anthem I could understand but this was at Wrigley. Don't they still sing, "Take me out to the ballgame" during the 7th inning stretch?

This?

What, exactly, is she 'disrespecting'?

The game? The Steroid Era took what respect baseball had left and flushed it.

The hallowed history? The Steroid Era pissed all over it, ruining the meaning of all the statistics (baseball is nothing without statistics) forever.

I absolutely hate baseball outside of the playoffs "maybe", and even I can agree with that.

Alright, let me rephrase my question from earlier in the thread. Besides you, people still actually sing during the 7th inning stretch?

Best part of baseball... the day after the world series ends... longest point in the year until there is more baseball.

God is not a nationalist. i can respect something without having to do a stupid gesture like standing silently for it. the flag and song are not my gods.

I can understand standing for the national anthem while at your seat at the game. But the last Dodgers game I went to.. i'm in the concessions/food stand behind 2 twenty-something guys at the cash register to pay for the food. the national anthem starts and they just stand there not finishing the transaction until the song is over.....I find that quite stupid. Even the lady at the register seemed to find it odd, even though she's probably seen it a few times haha

When people ask me who I root for, I always say, "the first team to win 3 games in the World Series."
