Now we are quoting the constitution on NAS? I don't agree with Dave's sentiments but I agree with his anger (btw, don't forget his speech is protected too). Free speech or no, it is classless to boo another team's national anthem.
Are we next going to say that the cups of urine and D-batteries thrown at Sammers in LA is free speech from an oppressed people? Exaggeration of the discussion, I know, but aggrivating nonetheless.
I've found that some Mexican fans are no better at sportmanship than their countrymen on their national team.
