Black follows TV ad opposing national anthem protests with cancellation of Titans season tickets

U.S. Diane Black’s gubernatorial campaign is distributing copies of an article she wrote on cancelling the Tennessee Titans season tickets because of some players protesting the national anthem last season and deciding with her husband not to renew them for the coming season.

As Michael Colliins notes, the opinion article ran on Outkick the Coverage, a website hosted by sports commentator Clay Travis. Full article is HERE. Excerpt:

“When the National Football League’s Oilers moved from Houston to Nashville, my husband Dave and I were first in line for season tickets,” she said. “Sports have always been an important part of our lives, and having an NFL team in our city was a dream come true.

“We love going to the Titans games — spending Sunday afternoons with family and fellow Tennesseans, as well as opposition fans that we politely welcome to our city before watching their team crumble under the weight of a superior team and a superior fan base.

“That’s why I was so disappointed to see the NFL and its players disrespect our flag and our anthem during this last season.”

… “For now, my family has decided that we’ll spend Sunday afternoons fishing instead of attending Titans games… And that will continue until the NFL and its players show due respect for The Star Spangled Banner that waves for the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
