JERRY JONES: Throwing them a bone or Saving face?

Posted on 09/25/2017 5:29:31 PM PDT by DIRTYSECRET

EVERYONE took a knee until the music started. Compromise. Everybody makes a point. Right? Gimme a break.

And with LeBron James doubling down on his comments about the president, expect the NBA to follow the NFL right into the dumpster fire of irrelevancy.

I’ve read the Cowboys all took a knee including Jones before the national anthem, and stood for it with arms locked.

The still got booed thinking they can have it both ways.

Jones wimps out.

All these morons, including Jones, took a knee BEFORE the National Anthem. To what end, no one knows. All the oppressed, including the owner, should fly back to Havana instead of Dallas. Cuba’s team!!!

Watched until they kneeled and then turned the channel. If they can’t put their hand over their heart, forget it!

The knee before is to say, “We are protesting the president, not the anthem.”

Everybody, if you want to see real Americans playing for their country and their flag, tune in to the Presidents Cup this Thursday through Sunday. They will be playing the international team (the world except Europe). It will be intense competition but gentlemanly.

We turned it off right after the anthem was butchered again

Why were you watching in the first place?

One at a time, run onto the field. Delay the game until next d Cade. Charge the field and take a knee on the 50. We need tens of thousands to do it next week until the cops /bsecurity are worn out and the players understand anyone can make a statement.

The players broke him, plain and simple. Trump said nothing different than Jones himself said (other than the SOB part) but the players basically called his bluff. They said “screw you, we’re all taking a knee. What are you going to do, old man?” and he caved. Now they know they own him.

Destroying football has always been one of the Left's goals going back to Theodore Roosevelt ...

The NFL is doing a fine job of it themselves. Even President Trump -- in a part of his tirade at the rally last Friday that nobody is even talking about -- complained that the NFL is ruining football by turning it into a boring game with penalty flags for every stupid infraction.

It's not the Left that has destroyed football. It's billions of dollars and plenty of greed all around.
