As the Cardinals were introduced, Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones, as well as executive vice presidents Stephen Jones, Charlotte Anderson and Jerry Jones Jr., stood locked arm in arm with the players, coaches and staff.
Before a giant American flag was unfurled that covered almost the entire field, the Cowboys took a knee briefly as a group, including Jerry Jones, which led to a smattering of boos from the crowd that included a large number of Dallas fans.
During the national anthem, the Cowboys stood locked arm in arm but nobody took a knee or appeared to have any sign of silent protest.

Skirting the issue with faux support for the Flag that represents the blood that bought our Freedom as a Nation....

Yeah...big f***ing hero.
“America”s Team”. Uh-huh. Try winning something within the last ~25 years. Slobs.
Not during the Anthem, that was fake news!
Shame.
But that's where they're wrong.
Their "bread and butter" isn't their talent, it's the people who come to watch, buy team items, and watch them on TV.
They are NOT siding with their bread and butter, but rather against them.
The Constitution is for all voices, and although I disagree and subject matter makes me angry, I will defend their right to do it! I want that same right, when I go to protest their sorry arses!
etnam had terrible protests...and that became directed at our soldiers, who were mostly drafted! That was wrong. You can be dead right, and dead wrong at the same time!
You are thinking of WWII. 75% were drafted.
Jump up and down all you want....their employers are NOT stopping them, so your point is mute! That does not change fact that Cowboys did NOT ‘taketheknee’ during Anthem. that was fake news!
You are only right in point of volunteer numbers after most got draft notices, but NOT DRAFT NUMBERS sent!
During Vietnam war 2,594,000 served, and 2,215,000 were sent draft notices. So only 379,000 were true volunteers! I lived it, I know!
Most who received draft notice decided to volunteer to get what they wanted out of schooling, and not be infantry! These are National Archive Statistics. So volunteer statistics are not TRUTH about men rushing to volunteer...geez! Answers.com will give you number of actual personnel who served: 2,594,000. and breakdown by group, the website below will give you National Archive statistics on drafts. Do the math!
So use your statistics, but you are wrong on what actually happened. I read those articles that Vietnam War soldiers volunteered, and I laugh....they weren’t done doing the math to find out what actually happened.

At Answers.com
Approximately 2,594,000 US Servicemen served in country during the Vietnam War. 1,736,000 were US Army 391,000 were US Marines 293,000 were US Airmen 174,000 were US Sailors (this figure includes the US Coast Guard). Approximately 2,594,000 US Servicemen served in country during the Vietnam War.
So yes, you can be dead right, and dead wrong at same time!

“HOW ‘BOUT DEM COWBOYS?!?!??” The most obnoxious sports fans around. (((Muh Jerruh))) ain’t Captain America, now is he?
I hope they support my decision to totally tune out the NFL and ESPN.
I really don't get off on watching spoiled millionaires virtue signal.
It's kind of like having an actor and actress who are vocal and militant homosexuals trying to pull off a torrid love story.
It just does not work or play well.
I had no clue but my RINO Governor, Rauner, owns a share of the Stoolers.
My came out against the protests (drawing the ire of f-tards), good for him.
No, her point is not "mute" (Tip: You meant "moot."). She correctly challenged your repeated wrong-headed assertion that there is any Constitutional issue involved here.
“I had no clue but my RINO Governor, Rauner, owns a share of the Stoolers.”
Interesting.
“My came out against the protests (drawing the ire of f-tards), good for him.”
Good!!!
