Jones may be the only owner smart enough to realize that the NFL is being perceived as anti-American.

He wasn’t smart enough to squash it when he had the chance.
Instead he joined them! I know he thought it was a clever compromise. It wasn’t ! The visual of it was, “He joined them!”.

If he has much of his wealth tied up in owning the Cowboys, his action set fire to a boxcar or two of it!

Yes, but I think he made a major mistake when he took the knee himself. I suspect he thought if he did that it would end it, but he was wrong.

I like football and I'd watch again, but only if political statements and gestures are banned and the ban is enforced.

Part of it is pure dumb luck. He owns a franchise in a state where old-time American values are still considered as something to which the majority of the populous still aspire. Unlike teams in Massachusetts, California or the like, where the average citizen thinks that Che is God and Trump is Lucifer, the 12th Imam and Hitler rolled into one.
