I don't know why, but patriotic things get to me.  I don't know if it's because of my son's who are serving in the military or what.  But military songs, stories or even pictures can bring tears to my eyes.  The Star Spangled Banner from MNF this week brought tears to not only my eyes, but to Colt's receiver Reggie Wayne's too.

Grammy winner Chris Botti was chosen to do a little something different for his Star Spangle Banner.  He played the trumpet, and in my opinion it might be the most beautiful rendition since Whitney Houston's version for the Super Bowl in 1991.

 

You decide for yourself, watch Chris's version and then watch Whitney's.  After all the times that I watched Whitney from the Super Bowl, I still get goose bumps
