But they can kneel and/or lock arms before and after the anthem?

He is trying to have it both ways but it won't work.

After J. Jones caved in a couple weeks ago and knelt with all the brain-dead malcontents, arm in arm.

Too late, Jerry.

I think the idea behind Jones taking a knee on the Monday night game was to get closure on all of this. No one listened and it still goes on.

I don’t think Jones understands that if he sits the players who don’t stand, they still get their money. He has to cut them. That’s the only thing players understand.

Native daughter of Texas and long time Cowboys fan. This is too little, too late. Start releasing these thugs that show disrespect to the flag of the country allowing them to make millions playing a child’s game. Maybe then I will contemplate watching again.

“Kneeling before or after the anthem is about as empty a statement as anyone could make...

No; it isn’t “empty”. Considering the fact that we already know for sure what’s in their hearts, the statement is profound. They’re commie America haters. We know it and they know we know.

Jerry Jones, the liberal, and Cowboys owner. There are far worse images that cannot be posted of him.

He doesn't care about the flag. He just cares about the bottom line. He's losing money.

Had the Cowboys won yesterday, he never would have brought the subject up. He did it to change the narrative, to talk about the flag, rather than the fact that the Cowboys are 2-3, and could be 4-6 or worse after the next 5 games.

This, after going 13-3 the year before.

So he drew the clear line in the sand. Now let’s see if he is honest.

He needs to stop the black power salute after the anthem by his players. I don’t need the salute...I can already tell they are black. One was quoted saying it was for his morals...uh, same one that was recently suspended for drug abuse.

Apparently. Also, I expect they will be allowed to stand for the anthem with no hand on heart, eyes lowered, glowering, shifting back and forth. . . . .

Spent last Friday night in the press box at a local high school game. EVERYBODY in box stood and saluted the flag.

All of the fans stood. All of the players stood except for two players on other team.

Those two young men had a rough night.
