I like the idea of an apology and I would accept this one except for one major point. Unless it's in the letter and not put in this article, the apology does not state whether they will continue to do this. If at the end of the letter it said something to the effect that in the future all Jaguar Players and employees on the field during the national anthem will stand and respect the flag, it would be apology accepted. However, an apology without a correction of the poor behavior is meaningless.

"NFL owners are meeting this week in New York, where the national anthem will be a key topic of discussion."

Who could have ever foreseen this sentence ever being uttered? It would not have even 10 years ago.

Their entire letter boils down to, “We’re sorry you were offended by our behavior, but we don’t promise to never do it again and we’re not sorry we did it.”
