Why should they care? The protest is not about the military. It's not about the flag, it's not about Trump (as much as he thinks everything is about him), it's not about patriotism, period. It's about systemic injustices is U.S. society. There's no point in reading anything more into it, because you'd be misinformed.
Just dropped $5K a few months ago to renew my season tickets.
I'm a veteran and I don't care if people sit or stand for the anthem. That freedom is what makes this country great, not flag worship.
If you REALLY want to honor our veterans, get them quality healthcare and get thousands of them off the streets.
Standing up for the anthem at an NFL game does nothing to help our veterans, it just makes you feel better about yourself.
I'm a veteran as well(not that it matters) and I'd like the players to keep their politics out of the game. I watch sports as an escape from stuff like that. Since they started protesting I've limited my NFL watching to my home team only, while before I would watch more games. I will keep up with this pattern until they stop protesting.

If you wanted to watch the game you could just start after the anthem. You're letting a few minutes dictate a 3.5 hr event.
Im a veteran. The right to protest is american. The kneeling does not bother me a bit.
