I know standing is respectful, but I don't remember ever hearing that taking a knee for the anthem is not respectful.  I'd think there's more than one way to show respect for something, and maybe I missed something, but I didn't think that just standing was the only mandated way to show respect for the anthem.

Perhaps they'd be able to explain it better.
