They arent kneeling for Old Glory and The Anthem they are kneeling agaisnt them, because you are meant to stand for them. Slight distinction in wording but an important one.
The Meme stated this: "They are kneeling to Old Glory." That infers they are kneeling in deference to the flag. They are not. It should have said, "They are kneeling in protest of Old Glory and refuse to stand with the rest of America."
The irony of men who are making more money than 99% of the country for their athletic talent (and often given a pass for uncouth-like behavior), are treated like princes, and do nothing for their own community. This kneeling does nothing but divide an all ready divided country.

I guess I am missing your point. All I see is them kneeling for the flag and when the National Anthem is being played. That is their main message!
