Alejandro Villanueva apologizes for honoring his nation, flag, and national anthem - looks like he's in a hostage video

His teammates, coach, and owner should be apologizing to him for allowing the rest of the Steelers to treat him with such incredible disrespect

This is disturbing not just because he looks like a guy in a hostage video who's letting everyone know his captors "are treating him well," but because he shouldn't be apologizing for anything. His teammates, coach, and owner should be apologizing to him for allowing the rest of the Steelers to treat him with such incredible disrespect. What this man has done in service to his nation absolutely dwarfs the meager achievements of everyone to whom he's apologizing. I'll be honest. I don't know if he wanted to do this, or if the organization forced him to do it, and it doesn't really matter. If he was made to feel this was the right course of action - either through guilt or coercion to protect his career - it's a damn shame. If I was sick of the NFL's B.S. yesterday, I'm ten times as sick of it now.
