Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones has had it with anthem protests. Just how tired of it is he? Tired enough that Jones has now publicly said that if his team doesn’t respect the flag, they’re not going to play.
Jones was asked by Brandon George of the Dallas Morning News, about two Cowboys players who raised their fists at the end of the anthem. Jones said he did not see the raised fists. But then, Jones made a definitive statement about how he wants to see his team to handle the anthem from now on.
According to Pro Football Talk, Jones said, “If there’s anything that is disrespectful to the flag, then we will not play. OK? Understand? If we are disrespecting the flag, then we won’t play. Period. Period.”

But they can kneel and/or lock arms before and after the anthem?
nearly all of Jones’s networth is tied up in that team..
lol
I guess he is getting nervous.
Sounds like the fans’ voices are finally being acknowledged.
All hat no cattle.
I already want you to not play.
Please do not play another game ever.
It’s totally within the owners an NFLs control. They own the game.
What a load..!
He LED them in that collective kneel..!
Wow, what a lying slut.
I don’t care, I’ll NEVER watch the NFL again.

They’re not fooling me and I hope they’re not fooling anyone else. I recognize that ANY such action by any NFL team or players or any subset represent the teams giving the American public a giant defiant “F@CK YOU PEOPLE, WE’RE UNITED”.

Repeat after me... To Hell with the NFL.
Yeah, he must be starting to feel some serious pain in the wallet.
But a black power fist in the air right after is evidently ok.
Keep up the pressure, people!
This is kind of like pronouncing that your employees will no longer flip off your customers or you vow to shutter the business. Problem is the customers now know how you feel about them, so there’s no point in going along with the charade because their livelihoods depend upon it.
We have heard Jerry’s tough talk before and we know what happened. He’s a Liar and will not do anything.
