Refusing to play a game when the stadium if full, after people have purchased their ticket, paid to park and made their way into the stadium, the teams then choosing to walk away and not play......that would be more impactful protest!
A team choosing to play and donating their game checks to the family or cause would make a lasting impression, but not playing a game today and simply playing the missed game tomorrow.....?

This is the weakness at the heart of liberalism. Feels over reals, sentiment over concrete action, idealism over rational compromise, a belief that ideology precedes materialism. Symbols of achiement and progress over actual achievement or progress.
