Dixie Chick CDs sold like hot cakes for a short time too. If these protests reach critical mass, counter protestors are going to stop buying shirts to burn, and start organizing NFL related boycotts. Politics is bad for business long term.

It wouldn't in general be the NFL team sacking her, it'd be a vendor. The NFL would be stuck in the middle... always a terrible place.
In general, as I mentioned, no major US company allows free lance protests by their workers, vendors, or at their work places. They don't decide this on a case-by-case basis,
ever. It's simply a matter of ceding partial control over the workplace... and they simply aren't going to do that,
ever.
