Cowboys Owner’s New Patriotic Rule Might Save The NFL, Here’s What He Said That Has America Cheering
Everybody knows that Colin Kaepernick’s polarizing decision to protest the national anthem was a stupid thing to do! Honoring and respect the flag of our nation is also paying respect for those who paid the ultimate sacrifice to keep of nation safe and free.
Now for all the overpaid players that feel they have contributed to our nation by playing football need a reality check, you have only served your ego! If you want to disrespect the flag, our nation, our vets and military members and football fans, we really don’t want to see you play! To get respect you have to give respect, common sense!
Therefore, Dallas Cowboys owner, Jerry Jones, has issued an unequivocal statement to his players, just days away from the kick-off of the NFL’s 2017 preseason. Jones told his players that they have to stand during the playing of the national anthem if they want to suit up in the silver and blue this season.
Jones sees it as a measure of respect for the fans, as well the military and the USA.
Finally, an owner with the courage to stand up for our country! That is true leadership! I applaud his statement to his team. It’s about time an owner has the courage to mandate paying respect to the anthem!
If athletes can’t stand for the national anthem then they don’t deserve playing football and getting paid millions of dollars in this country. These days it is such an embarrassing shame what America has turned into.
Not standing for the national anthem is a sign of disrespect, which should never be allowed! What a player says or does on his own time, is his business. When on the field, it’s not his time. It’s his employer’s time.
What do you think? Share this article if you support Jerry Jones’s rule!
Natalie D. is an American conservative writer! Natalie has described herself as a polemicist who likes to “stir up the pot,” and does not “pretend to be impartial or balanced, as broadcasters do,” drawing criticism from the left, and sometimes from the right. As a passionate journalist, she works relentlessly to uncover the corruption happening in Washington.She is a “constitutional conservative”.
That is the best news I have heard in a long time. Yeh for the Cowboys and Texas!!!
100% JJ. KOE get ur own soapbox!
I agree completely. So fed up with celebrities grand standing their personal feelings. Great decision Jerry Jones. The football field ,Red Carpet or late nite tv it’s not entertainment! Will not watch their drama and let these people upset me. There is plenty of other programs to watch.
Yes Jerry Jones said it the way it should be expressed. If you can’t stand for our/your national Anthem, then go to the locker room and remove the Silver & blue uniform that represents the Mighty Dallas Cowboys “. KOE is a worthless dog. No class no morals, no respect, no loyalty. How can america support anyone with this kind of effects……….Bye Koe and never come back ……
Bout time an owner stood up for the fans🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
Behind Jerry 100%..finally someone with nads….Go Jerry, Go Cowboys!
I guess the 2017 Dallas Cowboys games are the only NFL games I’m watching again this season, only games I watched in 2016.
That You Jerry Jones!!
It’s about time even if I don’t like Jerry Jones he’s right about respecting the flag. These over paid players are lucky to be in America God bless all the men and women who are serving their country and let’s not forget are veteran’s. Also
Yes, yes and yes!! One question, though — how about the fist in the air? Hopefully, that will be unacceptable as well.
Good deal. Problem is the other team may have one or more of these disrespectfull POS players. I’m A vet and proud of this country and every thing it stands for. While I would watch A game if both teams have this rule. I WILL NOT WATCH ANY NFL TEAM THAT WILL ALOW DISRESPECT TO OUR FLAG. Two years ago i was averaging 2 grand A year watching the NFL. Last year I turned off the tube and quit going to games after Kerjackass’s started this disrespectfull crap. I’m not alone in this many others have done the same thing.
Finally an owner with enough guts to tell it like it is. I am bhind Mr. Jones completly.
I never liked Jones or the Cowboys but they have become my new best team .
now i can go and see a real game without looking at jack asses go cowboys my new team to
The man is right. That’s all that needs to be said. I will not watch a game that has players disrespecting the American flag or national anthem.
I saw this posted last year as well so it may very well be bogus. But if not I will switch allegiance to the cowboys provided it is not just another attempt at a fan grab by a very smart NFL owner. IMPO, all of the NFL coaches as well as owners should band together and find common ground, make arule and stick to it!! SS
Thank you Mr. Jerry Jones, you are truly a patriot and an Ambassador for the NFL and a man of great character.
I volunteered to serve my country to give back to the men and women in uniform 🇺🇸🇺🇸✝️that payed the ultimate sacrifice so that I can pursue a better future for my family . Men like you Sir has helped shape the future of a lot of minority’s playing in the NFL past and present!
Thank you Sir and may God continue to bless and prosper your family and the Dallas Cowboys 🙏✝️☝️👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😊
Jerry Jones, you have got it right! Doesn’t take a college education to figure it out either, saying that because most players went to college! The Flag or the Anthem has nothing to do with what they are protesting, that is what get’s me! Proud retired Vet!
Make them stand at attention, put their helmet on the ground and their hand over their heart and face the flag or be let go! The owner has the last word. Show them the door.
Agree 100% I would do the same . Those who kneel needs to apologize to all the Veterans ,all serving now and go work at Macdonald s
Jerry Jones you are a hero for the younger generation. We need men like you to lead this America back to the was it was. Thank you very much. Super Bowl 2017.
I agree with Mr Jones. It’s about time team leadership so succinctly stated the reasons our players should respect. ..as he says. … our anthem , country, fans and most of all our armed services and veterans who have preserved our rights. God bless you and our country.
PS. ..congratulations on your hall of fame induction. Fabulous acceptance speech (whisper. ..and all this from a patriots fan).
Jerry Jones should be NFL Commish! He said everything that needs to be said! Him and Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy were emphatic about respecting our Flag, our Country and our Service Members! Thank you Mr. Jones and Mr. McCarthy!
100% J Jones.
JOE get it own soapbox!!!!😑
I just became a cowboy fan. God bless this owner for his guts.
Hats off to Jerry a stand up coach with a good team
That is why the Dallas Cowboys have , and will always be Americas team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally an owner with common sense. If they can’t pay respect to our nations flag, they can not play the game. I quit my NFL package with Direct TV after Kap sat. I will not watch any football game that has players sitting during the anthem. I watched Kap play at UNR here in Reno, can’t believe how he has changed.
Before you start calling JJ a hero or make him commissioner, then you should study up on him a little. Look up players Greg Hardy and current player Ezekiel Elliott and how He defended them. Also, he cut Lucky Whitehead who was only accused of stealing. Several days later the police reported it was a case of mistaken identity. No apology. If his star players kneel then let’s see what he does. Personally, I don’t think he will do anything.
Didn’t happen. http://www.snopes.com/jerry-jones-speech-911/
Well Mr. Jones ur so called speech that had all cheering didn’t happen. To me u are a dammed liar and yes ur team sucks as well. If u think that kneeling before the National Anthem was sang and then stood with the team while it was played, hell what a joke. Just because u all stood u still knelt therefore u are a hypocrite. Bye Dallas hope all ur knees feel good.
