Can you pick out the common feature in that picture? I thought you could.

They came out and kneeled arm in arm before the anthem was played and before the flag was unfurled. Nothing was disrespected. Or has the goal post been moved? A freeper told me they were disrespecting God. Kneeling is disrespecting God? Another one wants to ban pro-NFL threads.

It will be such a relief when this blows over.

So true....but this just went too far...they’ve spit in my deceased fathers face and mine and my sons and all those who know the sacrifice of serving in our Military so that ˜THEY can enjoy all the privileges and pleasures their life affords them. .....They have lost the meaning of what it is to be a Privileged nation. They are truly full of themselves.

Hey the name "Cowboys" is so 19th century, misogynistic and anti-feminist. It's time they adopted a name more fitting for their politics and something a little more 21st century, environmental and biodegradable. I propose they change their name to the:

Dallas Cow Pies.

Did they lose a down by taking a knee? Rules are rules!

Sounds like something Rush would have said for his Environmentalist Whacko Football picks.

You are wise to recognize the importance of these rallies and the signal is sends.

President Trump is a politician who campaigns for other intensely.

This has got to have gotten incumbents attention. He is going to try to remake the Senate.

The rallies are interesting because if you've followed him from the beginning most of it is old hat however he does add lots of little details if you listen.

For example his side comments about Little Kim perhaps being pretty smart or a lunatic. That tacit admission that Kim is playing his cards well at this point is interesting. His drop dead honest explanation on why he is supporting Luther Strange. There was something else but I forgot now.

These rallies are key - they are good for him

Tap the brakes here, folks.

It was NOT during the National Anthem.

All Cowboys STOOD during the entire Anthem.

I bailed 25 years ago.

Sure the Superbowl was exciting (one out of ~50)

But 8, 10, 12 hours per week watching other people do sports.

Get outside and do something yourself with that time !

Football has left my mind completely.

May I suggest that you all do the same?

It is the most BRUTAL punishment in many arenas of life to just be forgotten.

I’d rather be hated by a gal I love than have her feel nothing.

I’ve not given Target a second thought since I stopped shopping there for a LONG time now.

the NFL is done.

Let’s talk about a sport that we ex football fans can convert to :)

It’s the only sport i followed.

Hockey maybe?

You’d think it would have been obvious during the campaign by the size of crowds he drew that Trump had tapped into lightning. The dems seemed oblivious as Hillary eschewed personal appearances entirely. Dumb dumb dumb.

Big f-ing p*ssy pajama Boys!The NFL is a bunch of eunuchs in tights. Pat Tillman would piss all over these cowards.

I bet they still had the big 'ol flag,honor guard,shout out to our troops and Vets and all the other fake as sh*t American eye wash.

FUNFL

or the national football league should consider changing its name. It kind of feels like they would prefer to be called the Global Football League anyways.
