The National Anthem Should Be Played With Instruments More Often

Trumpeter Jesse McGuire performed an outstanding rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" before today's 49ers-Panthers game, and really, musicians should be used for the national anthem more often.

Singers are hit-or-miss, and most of them are forgettable. There are so many talented musicians who play instruments to use before games. (Definitely get more trumpet in the mix.)
