I don't see these player protests as disrespecting the nation, just like I don't think your form of protest would either.
No business wants to lose money, but sometimes they do. At times it is their own fault. Other times, it may not be. Whatever the reason, they must tolerate them, because that is a part of business.
Nothing wrong has been done by these players. They have only offended the easily offended. Cry babies are smaller portion of the market than non cry babies. That means more people will continue to watch than will not.
Perhaps the logic escapes you... the NFL will tolerate the cry babies running away because there are more of us that respect our country enough to know that the right to protest is part of American and infringing the right to do so is far more offensive.
