To be completely fair (although OP is a jackass), how many other jobs can you think of where you are forced to stand for the pledge of allegiance? Also, they aren't factory workers. They're elite athletes (some of them) who arent exactly expendable. And anyway, It's not like they're refusing to play. They're kneeling for 3 minutes before the game.
I still dont understand why people see this as disrespect instead of Individuals exercising their rights. I'd place more weight on the constitution and what it stands for (I.E Free Speech) as opposed to some song.
Unless your problem with this truly is that they can get away with voicing their opinion at work and you cant, I dont see why you'd give a shite that they're getting away with it.
That being said, this whole ordeal is so stupid, and I wish people would stop talking about it.

Agree. But whose talking about it? The idiot president of the United States.
