Pentagon is paying sports teams honoring the troops;
Patriots got $700,000.00... Oops.
That's not very patriotic, if you're asking me,
(Even though, I've heard, they let the Navy in for free.)
Shouldn't we be paying them when troops show up to sing,
Or when they unfurl the flag or fly some massive thing
Over our sports stadiums before we play a game?
Charging for the privilege to honor them is lame.
NFL and MLB, NBA, NHL
Ought to donate all that money - and some more, as well -
Put it in to causes that will really honor vets...
(Wonder if it's cheaper to get honored by the Jets.)
