Do you complain to the media/authorities when our games get selected for TV and moved at relatively short notice? Thought not. Yes, I do actually!
It`s not forced upon "us" it is a mark of respect for the man & the institution that the overwhelming majority understand and support.
Go shopping, cut the grass or do something else if you don`t want to watch the funeral. But will the shops be open? I suspect they will close "out of respect"
The game will still be played, you can still watch it.
My whole point is not that those who want to mourn, or pay respect, shouldn't. It's that those of us who wish not to shouldn't have pretty much all of our possible alternatives removed, as I strongly suspect will be the case by the time Saturday comes around.
