9 11 Patriots Day

I thought it was a little odd, and disappointing, that there was no acknowledgement or commemoration of 9 11 at Saturday's football game.

Was wondering about it tonight...is there a reason Hero's day is in November and not this weekend?

I personally would hope that we would always honor Veterans at the home game closest to November 11, and honor and remember 9 11 at the game closest to that date.

Oh crud...I wasn't thinking about Veterans Day. Absolutely. That makes sense.

Acknowledge September 11th at home game closest to that date and Heros day with the flag in the A in November.
