license, know, or should know that the playing of the National anthem is part of the pre-game activities, which is intended to unify people in celebration of our freedoms. It is not understood, nor should a licensee be subjected to unwanted political protest from players who are on the clock. It's not what people are paying to see. It's not part of the bargain for exchange. Leave your emotions out of it, and mine too. This purchase of a ticket to be free from real life for a while and to enjoy the entertainment is what is being discussed. You are not paying to attend a political event when you pay to watch a movie or go see a hockey game, or a baseball game, or a basketball game or a football game. You are paying to be free from such discussions for the time covered in the license.
