Message: [QUOTE="Cheriehoop, post: 1681533, member: 127"] I don't blame the kids. Ever look around at sports events throughout the country? Adults are on their phones, some men don't remove their hats, no hand over their hearts etc. I doubt players are purposely disrespecting the flag etc, they just aren't informed, are distracted. I don't think the way to show respect is always clearly defined. Service people in the military in uniform have different rules than veterans and we do (in uniform military stand attention vs hand over their heart) I had questions even after the video and I certainly believe each person was showing respect. ( Buzz told the players to put their off hand behind their back while the veterans and active military stood with the off hand at their sides standing at attention). Buzz just gave them a uniform way he wanted his players to show respect. I just think it's a good reminder for all of us - not just the players to act respectful and watch our demeanor. [/QUOTE]
