How many people have had jobs outside the armed forces that required singing the national anthem before work started? I'm nearing retirement and I haven't had one ever.

Good point and even then, when we knew the flag was being hoisted or lowered there was no requirement compelling us to go outside to render honors.

Singing? Who is being asked to sing the national anthem?

Splitting hairs? No one but athletes participating in sporting spectacles are subject to having the national anthem performed before they begin "work" then. Anyway, the upshot for me is I don't really care what they do. Football lost me years ago.
