Dallas has been my team since they signed Roger Staubach. Jerry has just given me a renewed commitment to being their fan.

Yeah, right... unless you’re a starter.

I went from a Cowboy fan to a Giant fan. Think I am going back to the Cowboys.

One of the things I've noticed about these stupid "protests" by NFL players is that all of the players involved in them seem to be playing on losing teams.

In sports, winners don't bring anything to the field on game day that isn't part of helping them win.

Political statements on the field are for 'effing losers.

I really have never like Jerry Jones, especially his treatment of Tom Landry, but this really raises him in my book.

I am not a Cowboys fan. I am an Eagles fan from boyhood having grown up near Philly. I applaud Jerry Jones nevertheless and hope they kick the sh*t out of the Giants and Redskins.

As a Giants fan (and sometimes sufferer) since boyhood, I’m supposed to hate the Cowboys. No more. Still wanna beat ‘em, but no more hate! I’d love to see Mara do the same.

Wouldn’t hurt my feelings if everyone who doesn’t stand during the national anthem remained sitting during the game.

Jerry Jones sees that the NFL has been pushed to the edge of an abyss by the cultural warriors and radical Left, and that any further steps will lead to the NFL’s destruction (and big $$ losses)

Kudos to the Cowboys. In a more indirect manner, the Green Bay Packers have also told the team the same.

Thank you, Jerry. It’s too late, since the Commissioner disagrees with you - but thanks, anyway.

they aren’t your team. they aren’t america’s team. the entire nfl jumped the shark years ago. now, the nfl is a cartel of semi-secretive controlling business interests that are colluding to suck as many dollars out of your pocket as they can.

they don’t give a damn about the flag — unless it has dollars coming off it.

If he’s paying the salaries, why can’t he impose these rules on his team?

Because some loonie union rep will claim that requiring employees to stand during the national anthem is a workplace rule or condition of employment that must be negotiated as part of the collective bargaining process, rather than unilaterally imposed by management.

Steelers’ OT On Kaepernick Sitting During Natl. Anthem: ‘Minorities Are Fighting For The Flag’

Villanueva was an active member of the U.S. Army from 2010 to 2013 before coming to the Steelers. He is a former Army Ranger, served three tours of duty in Afghanistan, and is a decorated veteran, earning a Bronze Star Medal of Valor.

“I agree that America is not perfect, I agree there are lot of issues with minorities in this country, I agree we should do something about it,” said Villanueva, who is of Spanish descent. “But I don’t know if the most effective way is to sit down when the national anthem of the country that is providing you freedom and providing you $60 million a year is the best way to do it when there are black minorities that are dying in Iraq and Afghanistan and protecting our freedom for less than $20,000 a year.”
