He also said they should be fired if they do not stand for the anthem.

Those guys have every right to register their protest by sluffing off the national anthem.  On the other hand, they are in show business and are paid rather large sums of money to put on their show which does not include protest demonstrations.  If the box office begins to suffer, then the employer will almost surely have to take some measures.

Pro sports are business enterprises.   Will demonstrations of the kind that Koepernik and others are doing actually change anything in the societal realm in a positive way?  I can not blame these guys for doing what they are doing, but I fear that it is a counter productive exercise.

Seems it is against the law for a president, or member of the legislature, to interfere with the employment of a citizen. Like calling for them to be sacked. Does the law distinguish between rhetorical and sincere speech I wonder.

It also seems that some of the team owners, who may have been on Trump's side in his campaign, have sided with their players on this.

I know what you mean, but seeing those numbers constantly change, give me hope...But most importantly, it lets me know that the reign of that blowhard asshat will come to an end.
:frolic:

Do you know what people call him besides a blowhard asshat?

Did any of you watch this last night? It's hilarious!
(You don't have to watch the whole thing if you don't want to, but I recommend the first 13 minutes.)
