I disagree. The national anthem at sporting events is about celebrating the unity under freedom's banner of this nation prior to the "combatants" taking the field to win or lose. The issue is that the teams (and by extension, the league) do not care about their customers enough to even feign allegiance to a shared idea - freedom, as espoused by the Constitution.

Consider that this latest SJW stunt of pro players "protesting" on behalf of aggrieved people they have never met, much less been, is simply a ploy to make "normal" people feel guilty for offenses they never committed, then Trump is most surely correct in his statements. These players do not deserve so much as a dime of the fans' money.

"Have the National Anthem before the teams come out."

Have the jackasses stay in the tunnel until the scary few moments of common decency and respect pass.

Unfortunately, it is a lie that they are choosing to not participate in the common and well-due respect for America.

Nobody would stop them from staying in the tunnel. They are choosing to participate, plus disrupt folks who wish to participate honestly.

It was that kind of political correct accommodation that got us to where we are today. Should have kicked a$$ in the 60's and 70'd when it would have made a great difference.

Thinking that the train has already left the station. Won't help.
