Since most schools playing under Fed receive government money in some way or another, a high school player mimicking a major-leaguer and pointing skyward is apparently violating the U.S. Constitution. In the spirit of political correctness, and to avoid stressing atheists, perhaps Fed should prohibit any ballfield action that might be interpreted as acknowledging the existence of God.

It would seem to me that the player is exhibiting his constitutional right to free speech under the first amendment, but then I'm no lawyer either. I don't see how he is violating the constitution.
