I've never quite understood why they do it, either. I do not see a connection between the national anthem and a sporting event. That said, I do know that when they play it, the announcer says something like "to honor America, we ask that you rise..."

If the NFL drops it, they will be showing that they no longer wish to honor America. Most leftists don't.
