“Football fans across America learned last month that several NFL teams were honoring U.S. service members not out of a sense of patriotism, but for profit in the form of millions of dollars from the U.S. Department of Defense,” the three senators said in a joint statement. “Our amendment would put an end to this practice, and ask professional sports leagues like the NFL to donate to charities supporting American troops, veterans and their families.”

We pay the coaches at the Academies "exorbitant" salaries (they make more than the President) as a matter of advertising and recruiting. Publicity is Recruiting and Marketing. Public goodwill keeps us employed.
