That said, I must ask.. Who is funding this? @5.5M per 30s there are some deep pockets and that money could be much better put to use helping our veterans.

Fair point. The exact same thought occurred to me.

The way I see it, the NFL and it's partnered network should be giving that air time FREE to the veterans' group...

And those funds should go to the Wounded Warrior Project or any LOCAL direct aid to veterans...

But I'll tell you this, if the NFL is going to let a liberal opinion be presented of an issue and deny a conservative opinion, they can can all the red states buh-bye...
