Cowboys made their Trump statement, now they will stand

The Cowboys have knelt for the last time this season.

Wide receiver Dez Bryant revealed Friday he and his teammates will stand with their hands over their hearts during the national anthem for the rest of the season, the Star-Telegram reported. The Cowboys, known as “America’s Team,” made headlines Monday night when they knelt as a team — including owner Jerry Jones — before rising for the anthem at AT&T Stadium in Dallas.

“Someone here on FR said after the Dallas kneel, that they hadn’t seen so many Texans on their knees since Brokeback Mountain.”

Excuse me? This native Texan thinks you need to get your facts straight.

I believe that poster said “Cowboys”, not “Texans”.

What would they be disciplined for? Nobody on the Cowboys has taken a knee during the anthem this year or last that I’m aware of.

I like Tony Romo. Best color analyst since that big fat guy whose name I don’t remember.

The NFL should relocate to Cuba.

Or Puerto Rico.

Previously known as “America’s Team” - now just maggots like the rest of them.

We know the heart of the NFL.
Too late, they already took the mark of the beast.
On their forheads, by what they believe.
On their hands, by what they do.

Take a knee and pray Dez.
May God have mercy.

Steelers cowering in the locker room, Cowboys kneeling, Packers trying to convince people to lock arms across America.

What the hell is going on?

My favorite comment on twitter -
“I haven’t seen so many cowboys on their knees since Brokeback Mountain!”

I live a few minutes from their new training center in Frisco, TX. I want to drive up there, wait for them, then stick my head out the window and ask if they plan on going all homo again by holding hands and getting on their knees?”....

Then call them fools and laugh as I drive away.

So, in your opinion, all should be forgiven then?

I didn't say that. I said I'm in agreement with them standing with hands on their hearts during the national anthem.

That stunt they pulled last week wounded me.

Apologies, firings and a pledge not to behave like treasonous scum again are as it shoulod be.

Who knows - maybe we'll see some of that happen. In the meantime, I'm happy to see that the Cowboys are ending the kneeling right now, and will henceforth pay proper respect to the flag during the playing of our national anthem.

The NFL is going on.

Would only consider going back to football if the NFL is gone.
