DITKA: If You Can’t Respect National Anthem, “Get the Hell Out!”

Legendary NFL coach Mike Ditka has a message for anyone who disrespects the Star-Spangled Banner.

“If you can’t respect our national anthem, get the hell out of the country,” Ditka said in an interview with TMZ Sports. “That’s the way I feel. Of course, I’m old fashioned, so I’m only going to say what I feel.”

The former Chicago Bears coach is chairman of the X League, a women’s tackle football organization.

“You don’t protest against the flag and you don’t protest against this country who’s given you the opportunities to make a living playing a sport that you never thought would happen,” Ditka told TMZ. “So, I don’t want to hear all the crap.”
