It is a sad situation when displays of patriotism and love of country are seen as "divisive" and are slowly being eliminated from the culture. The reason the national anthem is played before sports games is to remind us of the greatness of our nation and instill patriotism. That used to be something almost everyone agreed on, in my lifetime. It is sad to see that is not the case any more.
