Well, I have attended a lot of NBA games and have noticed the opposite here in Dallas- people DO stand, and many sing along, and place their hands over their hearts. Of course this is Bible Belt territory and love of country is pretty close to love of God. Hakeem Olajawon is also a Muslim and he has never had a problem with the idea of standing. But I think he said that as Islam was a religion of peace, he didn't think that it was right to create such a conflict about it. I thought the whole thing was pretty stupid, and I think the coach handled it well until forced to address it publicly. Now that I think about it this makes me think of the Elian Gonzales affair-- with all the different parties and agendas screaming and insisting and the whole true issue (and possible quiet solution) is completely lost in the uproar.
