    Not really, I do not really care that much about a random person I never heard of being rude.
    I'm not about to applaud him for rudeness either.
    Me pointing out that he is in fact rude and egoistical no matter what he claims does not mean I must be fuming.
    You must be surounded by amazingly thin-skinned people if you assume whenever someone comments negatively on some action they must be just short of blowing their top. xD

    I do not see any thing about this thread as against the forum rules. It is about a principle which applies to any country and about showing or not showing respect for others. Which can be about any subject.

    Accept it's not that, and it's seriously messed up for anyone to think it is.

    It is a matter of disrespect whether he views it as such or not.

    Is the world ending? No.

    But there are a lot of people who I'm sure love that anthem and the country it represents. So I fully understand why they'd be a bit miffed at him for that.

    Then again a lot of people these days have no respect for anything. So it's really not that crazy sadly.

    Yes, the issue here is that he is being paid be there and to show respect to the anthem is in the rules he is expected to follow.
    Oh and that he claims he "isn't being rude nor egoistical" when he clearly is both is highly amusing to me. It exemplifies the US idea of "free speech", that is "noise free of consequences".

    I could be the most popular on earth and still no one would give a shit. The fact you even think this is actual news, show just where you sit on the reality spectrum.

    Just stop man. Your idiotic bullshit is getting old.

    You know how some people are though. Everything needs to be Red, White, and Blue awesome (Red and White Awesome in this case) and those people get all bent out of shape if adhering to that isn't done the way they approve of. The same thing happened a number of years ago at both the Chicago Stadium and later the United Center when people get all angry about the cheering done during the National Anthem during Blackhawks games. The same outrage was sparked the first Bears game after 9/11 when Hawks anthem singer Jim Cornelison sang and the Chicago fans cheered.

    If it's motivation for the Raptors to kick the Heats asses then great, they will need the help with Valenciunas out to injury. Otherwise, Wade broke an NBA rule and will get some minor wrist-slap for it.

    This is hardly world war 3.

    Even if this was done at the Football World Cup(Soccer for you brain dead people) nobody would GIVE A SHIT, and no it would not be a "major news story".
