    Michigan H.S. Football Team Sings Nat'l Anthem after School Refuses to Play it

    While Colin Kaepernick may be refusing to stand for the national anthem, these high school athletes are doing everything they can to defend its honor.

    According to reports, a Michigan high school recently refused to play the national anthem before the game.

    "Like most schools in the state of Michigan, we choose to play the national anthem prior to the highest level of competition," Carman-Ainsworth School Superintendent Eddie Kindle told reports. He then noted that the anthem was scheduled to be played before a junior high game later that night.

    He claims the lack of an anthem was not a form of protest, but when students learned it wouldn't be played, they took it upon themselves to sing it.

    I'm so proud of these young men! Makes me proud to be from Michigan.

    Me Too! I was behind a county sheriff dept car the other day and noticed that across the rear bumper it said "In God we trust".

    Exactly Curly. They complain about conditions, but I don't see any of them leaving. What happened with the ones who said if George W. Bush was elected President, they leave the U.S.? I see they're still here. lol
