... which is pretty fucking stupid to begin with, considering the NFL brought it on themselves. Not only did they repeatedly focus on Kaep kneeling everytime he did it [and not delving into any of the tire fire that the 49ers organization was behind the scenes at the time], but the whole notion of the league just needing to wave the patriotic penis around for the National Anthem instead of leaving the players in the locker room/tunnel until after the fact like they used to pre 9/11 self-created the platform for protest.

The only time that the song used to even be part of the television broadcast and not just for the stadium goers themselves was for the Hall of Fame game at the beginning of the year, the AFC/NFC championship games, and the Super Bowl itself. Broadcasts of rank and file games and most of the playoffs pretty much started right before kickoff, and nobody gave a fuck.
