Army pulls postgame football video after prayer complaints


The U.S. Military Academy removed a video clip of the football team's postgame locker-room celebration after its upset win over Temple and is investigating whether a team prayer violated the religious freedom of the players. DeMaro said the video, which was posted on social media, was removed pending the inquiry, which was first reported by Army Times. "In this case, Coach Monken chose the wrong time, the wrong place and the wrong manner," Weinstein said Thursday. "We assume that there's going to be an apology from the coach to the team," Weinstein said. The MRFF, which claims 47,300 clients, questioned a practice by the Air Force Academy football team late last year after players began kneeling in prayer prior to games.
