Ask the MB -- Flag Pins

Ask the MB -- Flag Pins
Q: Where do you suggest I wear my flag pin? I thought the flag belonged on a pole. Am I wrong? Will the MB be wearing a flag pin? Is it different positions for men and woman?
--Larry

A: Our flag pins are sitting in a display case somewhere. 40% off!

MBs love their country as much as the next guy, and certainly don't need a lapel pin to remind themselves, and others.

Someone pass the memo to CBS Sports/CBS News President Sean McManus, who forces every one of his network's sports broadcasters to flag-up, except if you're Englishman Nick Faldo.
