We'll see.

Sounds like Coach Garret is hinting that some may kneel or not be respectful................

People can do what they freaking want, but the team should fire the SOB’s who do not show respect for our flag and the country that it represents that has given these players opportunity like nowhere else on earth.

Will the Dallas Cowboys remain "America's Team"?

Or will they become America's embarrassment?

The left tries to turn these into black and white issues in a way that gives them an advantage. Trump is turning it around on them and saying let’s turn it into a black and white issue but he is doing it in a way which does not give them an advantage but rather a disadvantage. That is why this is so enjoyable because we have watched our entire lives how the left turns issues into black and white in a way that totally screws us over

Apparently, the stories earlier today that said Jerry Jones was threatening to fire anyone who didn’t follow NFL policy in conducting themselves during the playing of the National Anthem were fake news.

Disrespecting our flag and anthem is corrosive to our nation.
For the football league that purports to be for OUR nation, that’s unacceptable.
The league should have nipped this in the bud last year.
They have not and it is spreading.
President Trump was right to call them out.

The New England Pussyhats can be joined by the Dallas Cowgirls

I think they should stand in unity.

All members of the nfl needs to apologize to the people of this country.

This is not a player freedom of speech issue. The players are uniformed representatives of the company. They do not have the right to say or do anything they want while in uniform on the field. If they want to demonstrate, they should take off the uniform and leave the stadium. Otherwise, they should be sanctioned or fired. However, I doubt any team will have the guts to do that.

They can do what they want. Fine by me.

I can do what I want, and it won’t be fine by them.

I won’t in any way support the NFL from here on out, and I am looking for sponsors and corporate partners that I can make sure never see a dime of my money again.

Nope.

I have pulled the plug on the NFL.

I have zero tolerance for racial and ethnic nationalism, or for the liberal fascism it represents.

I will not turn it on again until every one of these supercilious unpatriotic field hands, cannon fodder for Obama, are fired.

People forget hat Chicago is a war zone because of this $hit.

We’re watching a multi billion dollar miscue of epic proportions occur, here. If they think they can go on with revenues cut by half with many locales already hostile to stadium demands and people already cord-cutting to the point that their media exposure is poised to go over a cliff anyway, well, I say good luck with that. I guess pro sports are just another propaganda outlet to which I don’t care to expose myself, and won’t. Maybe they think there’s a foreign market for their shoddy wares like Hollywood does, who knows. Who cares.

Screw the NFL. NFL tells teams and player they can NOT honor the murdered Dallas Police, and that they can NOT honor victims of 9-11. Tebow kneeling to pray and the league had a problem. Crap on the Flag and National Anthem, no problem. Wear a Castro t-shirt to a press conference, no problem. Wear socks depicting police as pigs, no problem. Rape underage girls (Michael Irvin), umm, not really a problem. Rape women, twice, (Ben Rottenburg), no problem. Be involved in a murder (Ray Lewis), get in the Hall of Fame and a big contract as an analyst.

Look, you want to protest on your own time, fine, do it. But you are at your place of work during a game. Hell, I'd probably be fired, or at least reprimanded, if I wore a MAGE hat to work. I cannot represent myself as an employee at a protest, that could also get me fired.

They have no right to protest while at work and expect no consequences. You want to disrespect the flag, anthem, fans,.........fine, you ain't getting paid. Better yet, you ain't playing. And next year you won't be on this team.

There is no if ands or buts on this issue. You are either for flag and country or you are against it. Make your choice Cowboys.

I won’t be watching, either.

But my guess is those who choose to do so will standing on the sideline, locking arms with their fellow players.

There will also be a few dopes not on the field, waiting in the locker room until the anthem is over.

While this is still BS, it’s the policy the NFL should have set as soon as this crap started.
