Bingo.

Sorry you’re no longer a fan of the team OP but the Jags and the NFL will be just fine.

News for you all TV revenue is down across all media and this will be the first year that advertising rates will be cut.  I do understand how this is a straw breaking the camels back thing for some.  I served just shy of 8 years and it breaks my heart to see this level of attention seeking and disregard for tradition.  Where is the respect for the office of the presidency.  I know this is where people say he isn't worthy of respect but you respect the office not the person.  I've had to swallow years of disagreement out of respect for the office.  And no it goes further than the past 9 years.

From Patriot Post (patriotpost.us)

According to the NFL’s game operations manual, “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”

And to Clarify...   source back to time article about the differences between "rule book" and fields manual
