Why is the national anthem even being played before games? Both teams are from the US. This isn’t international competition. What is the point of the national anthem?

Bolstering nationalism, same as every aspect of the nation, assuming that we must have these things is part of the plan to keep the nation’s inward integrity secure in the face of trials.

Exactly. Forced patriotism isn't patriotism
There’s no reason to play the national anthem before sporting events.
