Clueless special snowflakes following the lead of a second string bench warming quarterback.
Following in the footsteps of Colin Kaepernick and a handful of other pro athletes, most of the Maury High football team took a knee during the national anthem on Friday.
A few Commodores players and coach Chris Fraser stood at attention before the game against Grassfield at Powhatan Field, but the majority of the team dropped to one knee as the anthem played.
“Our school system has said, we’re of the belief, we let our guys do what they believe in,” Fraser said after the team’s 17-6 loss to Grassfield. “And so we didn’t make an issue of it, and if they believe in a cause, that’s fine. I stand behind what they believe in, but I’m going to do what I believe in.”
