Shockey rips Texans for lack of national anthem etiquette
http://www.chron.com/sports/article/...te-2410816.php



HOUSTON (AP) — Carolina Panthers tight end Jeremy Shockey criticized members of the Houston Texans for not putting their hands over their hearts during the national anthem.

Shockey says he saw "about 10 players" who didn't do the traditional gesture when the anthem is played, and he told some of them how he felt during Carolina's 28-13 victory.

"I was pretty upset in the way they weren't showing respect to America during the national anthem," Shockey said. "This is America and you should at least give respect to America."

Shockey's statements didn't make their way back to the Texans' locker room before it closed, and the team had no comment. Shockey's rant came in response to a reporter's question about the Texans' defense.

"This is America and this is just a game and they should not only be very proud of this country, but very gifted to be living here," Shockey said. "Maybe they just forgot to do it or something, but I don't see how you could forget to do that."

Shockey sports a red, white and blue tattoo on his right biceps portraying a bald eagle draped in an American flag. He caught a 9-yard touchdown pass from Cam Newton in Sunday's game, then pointed at linebacker DeMeco Ryans and appeared to yell at him and cornerback Jason Allen.

I don't put my hand over my heart during the anthem. Never have, never will.

I take off my hat and stand but that's it.

And I'm awesome so Shockey is obviously wrong.

"This is America so do what I think you should be doing, you suma bitch."

Not that I disagree with him, however, the great thing about America is freedom. I'm thinking they had the freedom to not stand in the traditional pose.

Because he's a non-appreciative douche?

However, at least he claims to take his hat off. Seems like every time I attend a game less and less people bother to do even that. ****ing punks.

Shockey's flag tattoo offends me (not really, but there are some who would say that it's not appropriately respectful of the flag).

According to the "official" rules, his tatoo is wholly inappropriate.

Ironically, I'm doing a lesson on flag protocol with our cub scout den this evening, so I spent a bit this morning researching it online. I didn't actually find an official policy on tattoos, but the flag is not supposed to be on clothing.
