Are NFL players still kneeling during the Anthem or are they all standing now?

    We will thankfully see the National Anthem played with the MLB world series starting tomorrow..

    MLB - A true American sport that isn't run by liberal scared owners and weak commissioners. MLB is a league that enforces it's rules and not gives into player protesting on the field of play like the NFL does... MAGA!!!!!
    Was it always shown on television before games? Seemed like it was hit or miss whether or not you would see it.

                  Ok, you guys can keep playing the anthem as long you promise to not let Lil Yachty to perform at another sporting event.

                    Lol. Baldy acting like the NFL doesn’t print money. Players could take a shit on the flag at halftime for all I care, still tuning in to bet the games!!

                      It was an NFL commissioner that commanded the league play the anthem at games. But please find me when the networks played it on TV unless it was the playoffs or Super Bowl? Your memory is very off if you always remember it being shown. They did not broadcast the anthem for regular season games because NO ONE CARED.

                        Only time I remember anthem broadcasted before was in Superbowl. It's a new fad that started in 2009.

                          You guys are so lost, yes they showed the Anthem before games on TV.. Why do you think Kaep started kneeling and it was shown Nationwide to begin with.. Sunday games showed the Anthem and it was televised.. Big stage for protesting..

                          Like playing cards with children on this forum I swear at times!!!

                            They always showed the Anthem as far back as the 70's

                            I remember watching Jack Youngblood of the Rams on the sidelines so pumped on uppers he couldn't stand still

                              Isn't it nice watching football and not talking about players kneeling? You don't hear about it before the game, during or after. Thank God!
