NFL's Anthem Policy

The NFL owners have altered the policy regarding the national anthem, saying players can either remain off the field or have to stand during the song. The new policy allows the league to fine teams for actions by their players. Host Dan Loney talks with Ken Shropshire, CEO of the Global Sport Institute and Professor Emeritus at the Wharton School, and Charles Grantham, Director of the Center for Sport Management at Seton Hall University's Stillman School of Business, about this move by the owners and how players are reacting on Knowledge@Wharton.
