I doubt that people are yelling "O" or "chief" in protest to the flag that thousands of people have died to defend.
This is the semantics part of politics that make politics annoyingly absurd.
But the people in the nfl aren't protesting the flag either. So by the logic in your post, it's only more disrespectful because the people are rich athletes?

At least CK was honest what he was protesting and his reasoning behind it. These players are protesting the flag and our anthem then telling us it has nothing to do with the flag or our anthem.
Does this make sense to you? Me neither.
Re: Steve Bisciotti Needs to Speak
CK lost me when he started praising Castro. Try moving to Cuba and see how much protesting your allowed to do there.

I would say that from the Ravens at least it was pretty clear they were protesting the president saying not so nice things about the other players and suggesting they should be fired over political speech.
