There is no rule saying they have to stand. You people are jokes if you really think they are kneeling to disrespect the flag or america. Its also pretty selfish of you people wanting the nfl banned. For less than 1% of the players kneeling. You think they should all be out the job. So fuck the players that stand. The players who have served before and fuck all the players who help their communities and other charities. Bc there is way less players who are kneeling than there are players always standing. Selfish and greedy you people think the whole league should be punished. But greed is the american way after all.
