Dallas Cowboys Take Knee

in #sports7 years ago




In an unexpected move tonight during Monday Night Football, Dallas Cowboys Head Coach Jerry Jones lead his team in taking a knee. This move preceded the National Anthem but was still a provocative and unexpected move by the Cowboys and their owner.

If there was 1 team in the NFL that we thought would not jump into this controversy, it was the Cowboys. Just last season, Jerry Jones said that if any of his players disrespected the 🇺🇸 that they would be done.
The Arizona fans booed and displayed their displeasure at the Cowboys. The Cardinals though locked hands and stood respectively during the National Anthem and were applauded by their home crowd.
What do you think of tonight's shenanigans? Let me know your thoughts. Cheers!

Each and every one of the NFL teams have disgraced themselves this weekend.

Honestly, I'm having a very hard time with it. It will be several weeks before I may even watch a game again.

I'm not watching NFL again unless this disrespect for the troops goes away.

My husband just about stopped watching all sports, especially NFL and NBA. What a slap in the face to all those men and women who served this country so that these pathetic spoiled athletes can live the kind of life they have now. These players, who take the knee, should go try living in Venezuela, Cuba, or North Korea. My parents came to US as legal immigrants with nothing in their pockets. For many years they busted their behinds, sometimes both working two jobs, until they were finally able to start their own business. America is a country where dreams are attainable for those who are willing to work hard. How disgusting it is to see so much disrespect given to a country that gives so much, especially to these pathetic NFL brats.

Jerry Jones is the owner, not the head coach.

All these "National" sports teams have spit on the graves of those who died protecting their right to be an obnoxious and petulant man-children. Simply pathetic.

Why aren't there any videos of a cheerleader kneeling at a game ?
