The Barenaked Ladies will perform "O Canada" ahead of the Bills' season opener vs. Texans 🇨🇦👏 This marks the first time that the franchise will present the Canadian national anthem pre-game.

and the American networks never show the anthem unless it’s the super bowl as that time is valuable ad space to be sold, think the game is on CBS which has draft kings ads to air

Hey, BNL, do me a favor, sing the Canadian anthem in French. That might be enough for him to burst a couple of coronary arteries.

The Bills are appealing to the 🇨🇦portion of their fanbase, and it's not the first time they've done this. I totally get it, and there's no reason to get too worked up about it.

This is not even CLOSE to making things up. Pointless joviality in the face of unbridled antipathy and evil. Should we have sent a band to the Berlin Olympics to try to smooth things over? Nonsense. Brutal. Embarrassing.

Um, the home opener is on 9/17 against the Lions. Their season opener is on 9/13 in Houston, where I seriously doubt the Canadian anthem will be played.

I don't understand the purpose of playing national anthems before sporting events unless it's the olympics. It doesn't make sense.

glen2.bsky.social

Thx Buffalo Bills but this Cdn is still never travelling to America again as long as the fascists are in power and also boycotting as many US products as I possibly can-appreciate the gesture but voting the republi-fascists and Trump out of power is really the only way to regain our trust-maybe.

Nascar did it at Louden. Most redneck sport there is. And they cheered. Knoxville Nationals plays O Canada for their Canadian drivers. Also redneck. MAGA is a cult

The Bills have a lot of Canadian season ticket holders. Good on the Pegulas.

Just like with NHL games, all MLB, NBA, and NFL games should include “O Canada” — until Americans know all the words! 🇨🇦

A young woman singer from Maui will be singing for the US. She is part native Hawaiian & knows the US's sordid history in Hawaii. Give her a great round of applause please. I do hope she sinks to her knees & cries in protest during her performance.

Are you sure it's the first time? The Bills used to have a 'Canada Day' games at Rich Stadium in the 90s/00s and I'm fairly certain they sang it at them

kmalloy1993.bsky.social

NB - Good call for the Bills. But at "home opener" v. Lions. Not at "season opener" which is in Houston.

Thoughts an prayers don't work on Canadians. You need to arrest your pedophiles an criminals. You need to do more than empty gestures. This is the equivalent of an abusive ex showing up with flowers an brass knuckles.
