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.

Sounds good. I’m weary of these precious little princes.
Just ignore them. They hate that.

Sorry Cowboys - admired Jerry’s initial stance and his “one time” finger to America changed my mind. That stunt should have occurred in the locker room instead of a public display to ‘flaunt” said “solidarity”.

They can all go screw themselves. The entire NFL Klan of Anti-American thugs from that multimillionaire Goodell idiot right down to the lowest waterboy can go screw themselves. Hope they all go bankrupt.

I don’t really care what the NFL does now. They’ve already shown their true colors. In my opinion, they’ve disrespected our flag, our anthem, our military, and our country.

NFL Records to be proud of??

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Dante Fowler, for battery and assault in two separate incidents in July 2017 and March 2016, respectively

Baltimore Ravens outside linebacker Terrell Suggs, for aggravated assault in March 2003 and leaving the scene of an accident and driving with a suspended license in March 2016

New Orleans Saints running back Adrian Peterson, for injury to a child in Sept. 2014

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Demetrius Harris, for felony marijuana possession in March 2017

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell, for marijuana possession in Aug. 2014

Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus, for felony drug possession and reckless endangerment behind the wheel in two separate incidents in May 2014

Seattle Seahawks practice quarterback Trevone Boykin, for marijuana possession and violating probation in March 2017 and April 2017, respectively

Baltimore Ravens former linebacker Ray Lewis, for murder in Jan. 2000; he ultimately testified in the case and received one year of probation and a $250,000 fine from the NFL

New Orleans Saints defensive end Alex Okafor, for evading arrest and running from the scene after police tried to detain him in March 2015

Tennessee Titans outside linebacker Derrick Morgan, for speeding and driving with a suspended license in June 2010

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Artie Burns, for driving with a suspended license in June 2017

Denver Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller, for failure to appear in court on previous traffic charges, including careless driving and driving without a license, in Aug. 2013 and cited for driving with a suspended license in Sept. 2013

https://www.daily-conservatives.com/2017/09/26/red-alert-nfls-huge-criminal-records-emerged/

According to the data, 2006 was one of the worst years for professional football players–71 arrests were made. Meanwhile, 2013 saw 62 arrests. And this year, the year of NFL protests, we’re at 32 arrests already.

The crimes for which the athletes are apprehended vary wildly. Many of them are violent. The top crimes perpetrated by members of the NFL are, in descending order, DUI, drugs, domestic violence, assault, and disorderly conduct.

Military types who did these things would be involuntarily discharged for suitability issues.

The Cowboys are standing waist deep in cow manure. Screw them and the whole NFL. They just showed what they think of the Flag, the Fans and America.

Jerry Jones is a pervert. He has no honor. He hates conservatives while those in Texas think he is one.
