Matt, I was particuarly talking about this situation. According to the "letter of the law", two teams could have been ejected. Maybe I generalized a bit however, you stated yourself;

"The manner of enforcement needed to be clarified. This is a situation in which there are options all the way from doing nothing to ejecting every swinging Richard.

I'm thinking this probably started when someone at some game chastised the players for "breaking the huddle" before the anthem was over and this started a "can we go now" reaction.

I've decided they should play the anthem after the game - then the players can stand out there all night.
