joining me now, legendary coach lou holtz, on a member of the college football hall of fame. "the star-spangled banner," tell us what it feels like as a coach to stand on the sidelines with your team won the national anthem is played at the beginning of the game. >> it goes back to my first coach, the national anthem absolutely inspired me. most of our teams had to stay in the locker rooms before they played the national anthem but i just said, who are they? what have they done? what in the world gets them the right other than the fact that they're going up there, there was never a valedictorian, every everybody got a trophy, now they decide they don't want the national anthem, tell me what in the world gives them the right to bring this up in this way? we are having an election. >> martha: all right, that's a good point. it just seems that this year everything is so upside down. and obviously you're not going to hear "the star-spangled banner" at a football game if there is no football and those decisions have not been made, finally, yet. there's still some hope that some of
