How very un-patriotic of us!

I've been getting calls this morning because they apparently forgot to play the national anthem (does that get capitalized?) before the game. I had one guy call and say, "I want the name of the person who said NO to playing the anthem!" Like someone just decided that we didn't want it played anymore. You know, it's an old song, kind of passé, we'll play a national anthem when they can write one that's more now. Something more appealing to today's culture. Something where people would get all the words right. The aforementioned gentleman also mentioned how upset he was when we 'took away Dixie' but this was the worst! Can you seriously imagine a college, nay, a MILITARY college purposely not playing the national anthem? C'mon people! So what I'm saying is, "It was an incredibly unfortunate and unintentional oversight. We are working to find out what went wrong so it will never happen again." I think what happened is that the new Regimental Commander (head cadet dude) messed up, plain and simple.
