story in five words Melvin stand for the anthem I love this story mainly because it's not in front of me and I have to look for it um San okay cat I'm gonna go to you because you know why you love Sports San Francisco Giants manager Bob Melvin best name ever has implemented a new team policy requiring all players to stand during the national anthem should patriotis oh thank okay I'm going to ask you cat if patriotism should be enforced but I want to mind you that if this was introduced by Giants
manager Bob Melvin he probably likes this show he's probably watching is that why we're doing the story yes I'm a Giants fan he was backup catcher when I was a Giants fan he's like what always he never really made it as a pro he's their newest hire he's their newest hire that is true Bob Vin and he did this is the first thing isn't that kind of rebellious to do this in San Francisco it is probably the most rebellious thing you can do in San Francisco yes yeah which is why I think it's so intere
sting isn't it like an attempt at a Rebrand ver maybe for San Francisco because I I feel like it's very one of these things is not like the other I mean I feel like you're going to have to go a little further I think that people are concerned about San Francisco for a lot of reasons I feel like the way he said it he said you know I don't intend for this to be political which I feel like for most people it isn't but for the people sometimes who want to make it very political it is I think it'll b
e interesting to see if if anything happens yeah or if actually nothing happens at all and if nothing happens at all that will be so interesting you know it's even more interesting if he watches and says hey you know I get a lot of extra free tickets to the games and I really like that Gutfeld guy I could throw out the first pitch I could if only somehow he knew yes yes yes so um you often sleep in dugouts usually High School uh baseball fields uh it's good keeps the rain off you yeah exactly wh
ile you're waiting to hop a train down to tuna town um I think this is just San Francisco yeah I think that's how bad crime is he's like Everybody Get Up Stand Up we'll pretend it's for the national anthem but like shots might be fired we might have to run out of here uh they're they're they're replacing the seventh inning stretch with the seventh inning go see if my car is still there they got at the end of the game you have the Buddy walk back to your car to make sure you don't step on a needl
e or human poop uh it's all kinds of stuff I think this is great I love it when teams stand for the national anthem everybody and honestly that that's our that's our nation's Anthem and it's if if standing is too hard then you don't need a job yeah you don't need to play baseball hey you don't stare at go back in your country you came from you why why are you trying to start a moral Panic Emily Emily you're from the Bay Area first of all Bravo obviously and then secondly what I love about this i
s this coincides with the new uniforms that are see-through pants oh right right is hilarious of course my first thought was like yeah they stand up and now you can see all of it um and then thirdly that it sort of reminded me of after bwe had the Fiasco where after Dylan mulany failed then they were like let's get the you know most muscly horse like everything who can we have in the bar that's going to rally the troops again because the manager before him as we know is the one that had no probl
em screaming to the Head yeah exactly yes thank you you know everything love baseball you know what recidivism means no I don't what do you make of this do you think he's just stirring the pot he says it's to show the other teams that they're ready to play What I Like About Bob Melvin is he's not afraid to do what's right he focuses on everything but winning on Coach of the Year with the A's didn't win crap they buy everybody for the Padres didn't win crap and now he's here in San Francisco to s
tart not winning crap but I do agree you can tolerate and stand up for the country you live in even if you disagree you can stand there when I go to Canada and watch water hockey or whatever the heck they got up there I can tolerate their national anthem I listen to it it's not a it's not a a big deal like it we used to ask people to go to other places and kill for our country now we can't even stand for the national anthem Teddy baseball went over and murdered a bunch of dudes came back and alm
ost hit 400 I think that's a that's we're not asking too much to for the Giants to stand up while the the national anthems played I there you go up next you can't lose when we do local news hey Sean Hannity here hey click here to subscribe to Fox News YouTube page and catch our hottest interviews and most compelling analysis you will not get it anywhere else

Bob Melvin's got the right idea!

@AndreaDoesYoga

Patriotism's respect, not enforcement.

@allensmith4858

He's the boss...players are employees. Do what they're told, or quit.

@georgevangordon9728

The real issue is why aren’t the standing on their own

@jjlloyd8017

If they can't respect this country and the sacrifices made by its veterans, then maybe they should go play ball in another country.

@santiagoabalos7564

Stand for America ... 🇺🇸

@otpyrcralphpierre1742

When I get the chance to Stand for the National Anthem, NOBODY has to ASK me!

@VUrban-yr5ch

Way to go Bobby. Always pray and stand for America. 🙏🎇🎆

@highcountrystories

Well it is his ball club!! And they work for him!! Good job!! Very cool!!

@Bart753X

True patriotism can't be enforced just as love can't be enforced. It would be better to nurture patriotism by education and developing a sense of gratitude for what we have, not just material things, but basic freedoms and rights. Not every country in the world is so fortunate.

@Lolls-79

Schools here still stand for the pledge every morning and before every sport

@colleenpappas8032

Thank you Bob Melvin! GOD BLESS AMERICA!

@Merry-Go-Round123

It should be promoted in culture.

@USA_Love_BIackedRaw_9234

♥ Excellent story ♥♥♥ Thank you for covering this important event. The day of his retirement will undoubtedly be a melancholic one.

@charleneevans5848

it's a sign of respect.

@wacobeer6469

The players do not represent themselves as individuals when they are IN UNIFORM for the team. It's the same for the Military. I expect my employees to be respectful to my company, the other employees, and customers even if they don't agree. The players (and all employees) have a choice. They can honor their employers' wishes and show respect for them or they can leave. It's not about forcing patriotism. It's much more encompassing than that... as it should be. Kneel on your own time.

@randywoodruff9989

God bless you Bob Melvin your right on target

@michaelgautreaux3168

Enforced? Nah, it should be encouraged & nurtured. Identity as w/ borders is important.

@patriciaort9172

It's just good manners. Showing respect doesn't force people to feel anything in particular. That is an internal thing.

@michaelorr8190

If their gonna make it as a team and have respect for each other and the county that let's them play, its a good start.
