Players sitting during the national anthem is a topic that is well debated throughout the country today there are many people who believe that players should be punished and there are those who agree and support this idea of sitting during the national anthem. Christopher J. Scalia believes that people who sit during the national anthem should just quit playing for national teams not because he doesn’t agree that there needs to be a change in the community but because there are other ways to raise awareness for racial discrimination than sitting during the anthem, and disrespecting the United States of America. Christopher sees that it is happening in more than one sport in the world including football and soccer. While Roger Goodell disagrees
