So some lineman owns the team now? That’s real leadership Jones.

Anyone who took Jer seriously must have missed him on his knee. The lone owner against this stuff? I haven’t seen any other owner directly participate.

He’s subhuman so I don’t have high expectations. He’s a knuckle-dragger.

Why would anyone think Jones was any different from the rest of the craven money grubbers?

[ Well, on Sunday, Cowboys LB David Irving raised a fist during the anthem as the Cowboys got set to take on the 49ers. And guess what? Irving, and the rest of Jerry Jones’ Cowboys, played. ]

Gee, what a surprise. Oh, it’s a technicality or something. LOL

Cowboys fans have their limit and won’t put up with uppity knothead players, even if Jones is just another spineless owner. A lot of poorly attended games again this weekend — it can happen in Dallas, too.

You just got an in your face challenge, Jerry. What are you going to do about it?

a) Cave immediately
b) Make strong statement, then cave
c) Stay silent a few days, then cave
d) Sell the Cowboys, buy a soccer team. Then cave.

The Locker Room Leaders need to take charge and deal with this. Maybe point out all the empty seats around the league this Sunday. And, inform Mr Irving that if it continues the effect will eventually trickle down to his paycheck?

Jones: “My pocketbook or my principles? My bank account or my principles? My equity stake or my principles? Darn, this is such a tough decision.”

What a gutless coward. He should run for Congress. He’d win in a landslide with spine like that.

Looks like the lineman is off to San Francisco.

He was just carrying on a proud tradition of insurgents. Forces that have been trying to bring down America for some time now. While some of them enjoy reaping the benefits (the NFL, for example).

Perhaps someone gifted in photoshop might construct a nice likeness of Mister Jones sporting a pink (you-know-what) hat.

The NFL, where you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Including the owners.
Especially the owners.
Oh, forgot about the NBA.
