It depends upon if Villanueva was allowed to speak to the team

I imagine if he could speak . . . he might say something along the lines that he and his brothers fought for the right of the players to conduct themselves in this manner. If thats what they choose to do with that freedom, so be it.

He would continue that he has to stand up and respect those who died for those to have that freedom to disrespect their country, their flag and and those who died for that freedom. We as viewers have the right to disavow the players actions, and the franchise that promote disrespecting our flag.

If he did not speak . . . I doubt next week will be any different
