” The board of directors has voted (Tuesday) afternoon to repeal the rule 604-1, which required our players to stand up during the national anthem “, said on Wednesday the instance.
This measure had been introduced in 2017, just after the star of the women’s national team Megan Rapinoe was kneeling during the ” Star-Spangled Banner “, during an international match in 2016. She joined then to the protest movement against the police violence done to the Blacks, initiated by the former star of the american football Colin Kaepernick. Which is then treated for “son of a bitch” by Donald Trump and no longer has replayed for the last three years, blacklisted in the NFL.
