I've never considered not standing for the national anthem and I've always enjoyed the sense of unity it brings, but with the way things are going in this country under extremist leadership, especially for minorities and women, I am considering it. If the game had been at Mile High I would have sat in solidarity with the players. I find it inspiring rather than disappointing that so many across the NFL stood in unison with their "son of a b" teammates. 
I personally find it astonishing that people cannot accept a peaceful form form of protest and concern. It in no way indicates someone is less respectful or patriotic than you just because you stand and they don't. I actually find it quite disturbing that many people are perfectly fine watching and cheering for black athletes on their team - as long as they behave well - as soon as they have an opinion different then theirs and are out of line in their eyes, they go ballistic. Says a lot. 
I gained a lot of respect for the NFL today.
