Dr. Mike Robinson: The New NFL Policy Requires Players To Either Stand For The National Anthem Or Stay In The Locker Room. What Are Your Thoughts on the NFL’s National Anthem policy?
Dr. Dorothy C. Handfield: I believe that our community has enough spending power to boycott the NFL. We do not have to support the games by refusing to purchase tickets and/or athletic goods or watch the games on television. We should support the NFL players in the same manner that the NFL players are supporting issues that impact our communities.
