Richard Sherman: Jerry Jones with “the old plantation mentality”
NBC Football Talk ^ | July 30, 2018 | Charean Williams

Posted on 07/30/2018 6:24:55 PM PDT by GuavaCheesePuff

Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins called Jerry Jones a “bully.” 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman was not as kind.

“The owner of the Dallas Cowboys, with the old plantation mentality,” Sherman told Jarrett Bell of USA Today. “What did you expect?”

Jones declared last week that the Cowboys would require their players to stand for the national anthem “toes on the line.” The NFL since has instructed Jones to quit talking about the anthem as it negotiates a new policy with the NFLPA.

Sherman is smarter than this. The nfl almost got me back but now I am gone again. How an owner can’t speak about requiring his employees to act as professionals is beyond me.

Here’s the deal Malcolm
You cost me money then you cover my loss.
When it is his money on the line it will be:
Malcolm? Where’s Malcolm?. I want my money!

A black liberal athlete’s privilege: Being allowed to protest on your employer’s time while alienating the customers and costing him or her millions of dollars.

I will support Jerry Jones & his lifetime of successes over ANY black athlete until the day I die.

So why doesn't Sherman ask to be traded, or just quit if he doesn't want to follow his employers work place rules? Is Jerry Jones somehow keeping Sherman from disrespecting the Anthem or prohibiting him from exercising his freedom of speech outside of the workplace?

I'm tired of obscenely overpaid, underbrained athletes and supposed celebrities.

If Sherman wants to know what modern slavery is, he’d better start with the Democrat party, not the NFL

Thanks for wrecking football, fellows. One day the 1 Percenter checks will stop coming in, nobody will ask you for your autograph as a card show, and then you’ll be forgotten for the rest of existence.

You don’t need hits on the head to prove that you are just f*cking stupid and greedy.

And thanks for trying to wreck racial tolerance and unity. Dr. King is spinning in his grave.

Amazing how these ignorant bruthas on opposing teams spew venom about Jerrah. He’s been a “players owner” to a fault, often grossly overpaying them and covering up their misdeeds. Many a black player has praised his treatment of them.

But now he believes in standing for the flag he’s a plantation owning racist.

Just like Trump who was honored by the NAACP and fought for golf clubs to allow Jews and blacks but is now Hitler.

It’s like this DICK, you’ve got to have a “plantation mentality” when you piss people off and they aren’t buying cotton underwear anymore.
