Old Grump?, well maybe but was there any communication as to game announcements/anthem? I find it hard to think that Blue would not wait for all of that. Did coach, or other school official discuss what they wanted done, or was it assumed, "we've always done it this way, he should know"? The game starts as a rule after the meeting at home. Coach can explain anthem, etc at this meeting during ground rules discussion. The home team was obviously on the field, ready to play, so they may have been un-aware of what you wanted to do also.


Really sounds to me like mis-communication, nobody's fault, just something to correct next time.
