Good for the Cowboys. They have set the tone for honoring the flag. Have any of them taken a knee?

That’s awesome.

But I gave up on the NFL. Clearly the guys are not 100% bad. But close enough.

This article is actually from last year. I’ve Been a Cowboy fan since 1960 when they first were formed. Dak Prescott is a heck of a man and the Cowboys haven’t had any protesters. I just can’t say Jerry Jones putting up with that

Jerry Jones has told the team that no Cowboy will sit during the National Anthem or they will be fired.

It’s their choice.

Never been a Cowboys fan. Go Redskins!

But I am now.

Sorry, Cowboys, still not going to watch.

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is a bit of a flake, but these are the shoes he wore for the September 11th game last year against the Dallas Cowboys:

The NFL threatened to fine him for wearing shoes that don't meet the league's regulations for footwear, but I understand they backed down on it after a lot of public criticism.

Prescott’s a good kid and a real talent; however, he’s no Aaron Rodgers.

I’m waiting to see how well Prescott plays without Ezekiel Elliott in the backfield.

Prescott also had the one of the best offensive lines in the NFL last year.

I want to see how well Prescott plays when that line starts drifting back towards average, which is where every great offensive line always ends up.

If he’s still a franchise QB after that, then hats off to a quality player and a quality young man.

Breitbart had a piece up last night where Ha Ha Clinton Dix wrote the names of fallen police on his cleats and wore them during the game.

I dunno how the hell he got a name like that.

Dark is a good guy but I will still be boycotting the NFL this season.

A different sport, but the proper perspective:

I knew the Cowboys had made an excellent choice in drafting this kid. The Dumb-assed Bears passed on him three times showing just how dumb-assed they are. And them desperate for a qb.

So this guy is a class act because he picked up a paper cup off the ground? One that he dropped? Boy, our standards have lowered. He may be a good QB, but that does not (well, should not) remove the requirement for basic human qualities and courtesies. I don’t care who you are.
