What about Those professional sports sponsors?

I'm not one that needs nor wants recognition for my service. I actually prefer to keep my service private within my own circle of family and friends.

I have also served as a recruiter for the Army, so I can appreciate the advertising point of view. This being said, if a show of appreciation for service members is paid for by their own organization instead of its hosts, the NFL, which is a multi billion dollar industry, it lacks sincerity, does it not?

I do however support the DoD providing fly overs by the Air Force. In my opinion, this is a display of overall protection from our military while we enjoy events that our countrymen have enjoyed for generations.

Do you think that the NFL should pay for these bills during the events (minus fly overs), or is it necessary for the DoD to pay for them in order to display our military for any particular reason....?
