Several NFL players, following the lead of 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, are refusing to stand during the National Anthem. Charles Krauthammer entered the No Spin Zone to tackle that contentious issue. "This is a form of disrespect," Dr. K declared, "and they do it to get attention and as a way to protest. Some high school players are now following their lead because American history textbooks are catalogues of the pathologies of American history. They're all about racism and sexism and xenophobia, all of the sins of the fathers. But if this is the worst of the dissent, I think the country is doing well." But The Factor warned, "This is growing, it started with one guy and now it's other players and the kids."
