Screw the NFL!!
I think his business is already gone. He just doesn’t know it yet.
That kneeling stunt he pulled a couple weeks ago mightve been the worst business decision hes ever made.
Too late. All this will achieve is to piss off the other side as well. The time to act was last year. When they failed to act then, everything following was predictable. The nfl brand may survive, but it will never recover.
X2 on your #2 Post! And I’ve watched football since Jim Brown/Frank Gifford/Y.A. Tittle ruled the air waves! The hell with these ungrateful morons today. Let them play for the Botswanna Bears.
F Jones....let the traitor rot
Now, for a vintage weather report from the time when Jerry Jones was actually probably a decent American. Probably. Maybe. Who knows.
Put the crack pipe down, Rush...
Agreed. What an idiot. He was afraid of his black players calling him a cracka’ so he went along with it. You could see it in his face he didnt want to do it and even the white coaches hated doing it. Easy to read body language..
he knelt in support of “solidarity”. That means solidarity with BLM, with the flag protesters, with he cop killers and to flip the finger to Trump.
Some mistakes you only get to make once. Soldier selling secrets to the enemy, politician or cop caught taking a bribe, cook spitting in the food, catching your spouse screwing the neighbor.
No apology and acting right afterwards can fix it. At best its a long brutal road, and you’ll never be fully trusted again.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. No PR firm can fix this.
The boycott started long before DJT made his tweet. Kraft said, paraphrasing, “sports unites, politics divides.” Inexplicably, he went on to support his players injecting politics into sports. ESPN does the same thing.
I’ll go back to watching some NFL if and only if the league or all of the owners make a rule to be respectful and enforce it. There will probably have to be some firings.
Like Bobby sang,
But something is happening and you don’t know what it is
Do you, Mr. Jones?
Ex fan to Jerry: no sale.
agree
I think it will be a very healthy thing for America to get its priorities in order once again.
Football used to be a leisure time diversion, not an all-consuming profit industry. It would be good for it to die, to be replaced by real Americans who have the correct perspective.
Thanks on “sargon!”
NFL players need to get control of their union and first thing they need to do is fire D Smith, an obama lackey.
The thing they should fear is what actually happened to me. I was switching channels and came upon the game. I tried to watch a few minutes but switched it off ...disgusted.
Its like telling someone “don’t think about elephants” and suddenly its all you can think of.
They have tried so much to get me to think about breast cancer, about domestic violence, about police brutality, about BLM and their protests, that now I don’t see football anymore. I just see a bunch of unpleasant crap.
It isn’t an escape anymore like in the 70s.
In addition to me not wanting to watch as an active political concept, I have really actually lost interest in them. That’s much worse for them than a boycott.
