Not many to be sure. However, it's not like the national anthem being played before sporting events is a new development, it was going on long before any player in the league was drafted or signed as a free agent. While I get the point you are making it doesn't address the core issue at hand; how many employers allow their employees to make political statements on the clock? At work you are a representative of your employer, everything you do reflects on them. It's certainly not the only reason, but one of the main reasons I have never divulged what agency I work for is that there are posters here who would ascribe my viewpoints with those of my employer.
