Honoring Veterans Day, NFL Hall of Famer Michael Strahan and his Fox NFL Sunday team held a special broadcast from Naval Base San Diego on November 10, 2024. This annual Fox Sports event celebrates U.S. Armed Forces members for their dedication and sacrifices. However, controversy erupted when viewers criticized Strahan’s posture during the national anthem, as he stood with arms folded instead of placing his hand over his heart.

Many online reactions accused Strahan of disrespect. “Why couldn’t he put his hand over his heart during the anthem?” one viewer asked. Another labeled it “Disgusting!” with some demanding action, calling his behavior “so disrespectful” and even urging Fox to fire him.

Yet, not all agreed with the criticism. Supporters defended Strahan, noting he stood respectfully. “Why can’t people mind their business? He’s standing respectfully,” one fan said. Others pointed out that U.S. flag protocol requires standing at attention, but not necessarily a hand-over-heart gesture.

In response, Strahan avoided addressing the backlash directly. Instead, he posted a tribute on Instagram honoring veterans and his father, Maj. Gene W. Strahan, Sr., a 23-year Army veteran. He wrote, “We owe all veterans…for our safety and freedoms,” emphasizing his deep respect for the military.

This debate highlights differing views on respect during patriotic events—while some see traditional gestures as essential, others view standing respectfully as sufficient.
