That’s why I’m watching women’s college volleyball now.

Jones made it clear he believes the language in the league's game-day manual 
should be changed to stipulate punishments for any player who does not comply with 
standing for the playing of "The Star-Spangled Banner." 

**************

The NFL may be a day late and a dollar short.  But that is how this situation is 
handled in the NBA rules.  The rules should be a part of ever players contracts.  

 What the Commissioner and the NFL needs to do is copy the NBA policy and make
that a part of each players contract.


NBA Rules
...
(1) Each player when introduced, prior to the game, must be uniformly dressed.
(2) Players, coaches and trainers are to stand and line up in a dignified posture
along the sidelines or on the foul line during the playing of the National Anthem.
(3) Coaches and assistant coaches must wear a sport coat or suit coat.
(4) While playing, players must keep their uniform shirts tucked into their pants,
and no T-shirts are allowed.
(5) The only article bearing a commercial 'logo' which can be worn by players 
is their shoes.

I “heard from a friend” that ESPN3 streams European women’s volleyball these days. Might want to take a peak some time. ;)
