On Wednesday, NFL owners unanimously voted for players to stand for the National Anthem without discussing with the NFLPA about it. This comes after players took offense to President Donald Trump's comments about players "disrespecting" the flag by kneeling, a demonstration started by then-49er QB Colin Kaepernick who has filed a lawsuit on the organization. I explain why this is a horrendous occasion.
