Are they seriously trying to make me start watching the Cowboys football games again? Because this seems like a really good effort on their part to make me like the Cowboys again.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones won't take that $hit!
He would probably demote him & bring back Romo LOL
Just another display of a white supremacists/nazi/racis’/kkk’r at work. Of course he would stand for the repressive nationalist anthem. Like ‘they’ say, if you honor and support the country, you are obviously a racis’ at the very least. And probably worse. Gettin’ just a little fed up with the constant barrage of these assclowns.
Good for him. I’m glad to see him make that statement. And if he has a season like Kaepernick just had, he’ll get cut too.
Just showing again how much of a cultural difference it is growing up in the South versus the Northeast. I grew up in NY and moved to Florida in 1991. I tell my Northern friends that race relations seem so much better in the South than the North in general and it comes through in ways like this.
Dak grew up in Louisiana and went to Mississippi State. Kaepernick grew up in California and played at Nevada. There’s just a different paradigm. Look at all the SEC players in the NFL and how many of them get themselves into political flaps versus so many others around the country?
Look at Charles Barkley and Shaquille O’Neill and Bo Jackson and Herschel Walker. All have their heads on straight and when they talk up on race you listen because they are not ‘cheap shot racism’ athletes. All born and raised in the South, all have gone through their own racial incidents of prejudice, but able to understand that it is about the individual, not the color or the geography.
Good to see a guy standing up and being a MAN...instead of an asshole.
The reason: Dak Prescott was raised right!
Thank you for posting this.
I was watching one of the games last year and they showed Dak sitting on the bench drinking a cup of water. He finished it and threw the cup at the trash can, but he missed it. Rather than leave it there for someone else to deal with, he got up and picked it up off the ground and put it in the trash. That incident spoke volumes.
I believe Jerry Jones said he wouldn’t play anyone who took a knee or protested the anthem.
This really sucks. How am I supposed to keep hating the Cowboys when their owner and quarterback talk this way???
I might actually have to watch a Cowboy game or 2 now. Need to find where I put my Dallas shirts and hats.
Dak keeps impressing me more and more.
If we are going to trash Kaepernick we should congratulate this young man for his stance.
I predict Mr. Prescott gets a HUGE ovation on opening day because of this.
A well deserved one, I might add.
In related news, this Thursday’s pre-season game between the Cowboys and Texans has been cancelled.
This is a perfect time for the NAACP to form a start up team with no honkys allowed
