Requiring players to stand for the Anthem does not violate the guarantees of the First Amendment, but it is a restriction on speech.
No, but silencing freedom of speech -- even if legally allowed -- kind of cuts against our core Constitutional beliefs as a nation and is effectively un-American. Requiring players to stand for the Anthem does not violate the guarantees of the First Amendment, but it is a restriction on speech.
Then we get into the constantly circular argument: Refusing to stand for the Anthem is un-American, but so is requiring someone to stand for the Anthem; so then, is it un-American to complain about people requiring their employees to stand for the anthem? What about the employer's free speech rights?

1. Get out is phenomenal.
2. If you’re tired of hearing about the issue, vote against Trump or encourage Jerry to sell the Cowboys, they’re the ones pushing it.
3. Jerry put Dak in this position. He put a young quarterback in this position by making it all about Jerry’s politics and pushing Dak (and Zeke) to say exactly the same thing he is.
Just what do you people think is going to happen if and when you next get a Democrat elected president? You think those of us on the right are going to forget how you reacted?
