This might not be how it was supposed to go.
After a tumultuous year of protests, sinking ratings and ticket sales for the NFL, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was prepared to act.
Last week, news that Jones had threatened to sue NFL commission Roger Goodell rocked the political and sports world. Jones had been extremely critical over many of Goodell’s decisions, and was vocal over this mishandling of the players’ protests during the national anthem.
Jones decided to put his money where his mouth is, and hired an attorney in an attempt to stop negotiations for Goodell’s lucrative contract renewal.
But Jones is feeling pushback in a major way and has angered some of his fellow NFL owners, to the point where they are reportedly thinking of removing Jones from the league, Pro Football Talk reported.

Who would take Jones Super Bowl trophies?
Progressives always circle the wagons. Conservative, OTOH, well I think we don’t wan to go there.
Like someone said:
The 31 dumbest rich people in America.
Both are kneelers.
As long as Goodell carries water for the progressive agenda he is bullet proof.
What the heck does Goodell have on these guys?
The NFL better be careful. Jerry Jones is not a good guy to have as an enemy.
If that’s what it takes to get Jason Garrett fired then so be it.
Show a little Back Bone Mr Jones, Lock the Players out of the Next game and Officially FORFEIT!!
Let them deal with the Revenue Loss.
Joe Lockhart.
Jerry is in debt up to his eyeballs paying off that new stadium.
I don’t think he can afford to sell the Cowboys.................
I think we see in the case of Moore and Jones, the Antifa crowd is really the FA crowd. Jones didn’t get any points for his kneel in my book, but we see how ingrained is thought that has been wrought upon this country for up to the last 100 years. The only way to win is stay in there and fight.
I am so over the NFL-—I haven’t watch a minute of it willingly. Only time this year I watched was when I was in a restaurant and couldn’t have it turned off, (and then I really tried to ignore it).
Guess what—I’m still alive!!
NFL, owners, players, Goddell can all go u know where!!!
Never happen.
Ron Zook may be available!
So is Shark Humper.
Who cares? I hope they enrage Jones, pick a huge fight, literately punch his mother in the biscuit for that matter...
The National Felon League is entertainment. Let the games begin.
Whatever it takes to get them off the tax payer tit via tax credits/non profit/municipal bonds etc... If watching a huge fight with Jones is what it takes to get politicians mad enough to cut them off, I would throw the first punch to get it started.
I also wonder if the Cowboys and their stadium are a single asset and would be sold together, of if he could sell the team but keep the stadium rights.
