-* Sports as Business have become a different beast entirely. The NFL in particular, where coaches have been recorded instructing players to ‘kill the head, and the body will follow’, has become (even more) pathological in its disregard for players’ welfare. If a player in my representative uni team didn’t take a knee when the situation merited it, without extenuating circumstances, they’d catch flak from their own teammates and coaches for it.
