There's hope for this country after all

I know how the media paints a picture of doom and gloom and how we're pounded with anti-American reteric by douchebags like Keith Olbermans and Chris Mathews and Rachel Madcow but that's not how the majority of American feel. I was reminded of this last Friday night at the Norfolk Admirals game.

See for yourself: http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog/puc...urn=nhl-306789

I can tell you that there wasn't a dry eye in that arena. It was a very special and proud moment. One of the other dads (my son's team was on the ice with the Admirals during the National Anthem) told me afterwards it was one of the most special moments of his life.

We're on the same page this morning. I just watched and was about to post it. Truly awesome.

Hockey fans are the best fans

That's awesome.

Thanks for sharing that. Especially on a day when it is two below zero outside, and the sun isn't shining.

THAT will make my day. Thank you.

A very good situation indeed, well worth the view.

Just awesome!!!!!!!!!

And yes hockey fans are by far the best of the best out there!

I hope the woman that cackled sees this video and realizes what a crappy person she is for laughing at a child in a moment of weakness/embarassment.

What a great voice that child has!

Thanks for sharing, that made me smile

Made me pretty happy.

Remember that part in Three Kings where everybody was singing ''I'm Proud to be an American''?

Yeah. That's how I feel when I see things like that.

That was great. So glad the crowd picked up right after the mic cut off, and that little girl kept her cool pretty well too.

On a somewhat related note, if it weren't for hockey games I wouldn't know the words to the Canadian anthem!

God bless little Elizabeth Hughes, and all those who sang with her.

M4arc, thanks for the link. I'm forwarding it to my hockey fan friends.
