John McCain and Jeff Flake held a press conference on Wednesday to discuss payments made by the Pentagon to the National Football League, Major League Baseball, and the National Hockey League to honor service members at sporting events.

In apparent deference to the establishment wing of his party, Flake reneged on the promise. |
