Coaches Can't Pray

I was listening to NPR today in the car and I heard a blurb about East Brunswick, NJ high school football coach Marcus Borden. I was surprised to learn that the US Supreme Court had declined to hear his case after he was barred from even bowing his head and taking a knee while his players prayed before games. The argument was that he had previously (for 23 years) led his players in prayer before games and that to allow him to bow his head showed that if a player didn’t pray he might not play, causing religious discrimination. I think it’s ridiculous and causes religious discrimination against the coach!

What do you think?
