Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Jerry Jones- It's All About Money

I'm with you, shaman. I don't drink anymore, but I'd toast that one with you.

I'm a lifelong Steelers fan and I would concur with your opinion about Jerry Jones --- and just about every Texan I ever met --- trailer trash and uneducated as a bag of used rubbers!

NFL will weather this storm and keep on chuggin' as America's favorite sport. Trump and Jones will be pushing daisies for many decades before the NFL even starts to think about posting a proft loss.

Pulling up chair and bag of popcorn...

Cracker Jack be having pubic hair on his head

Dog whistle to the white nationalist "base" --- you Trump Trolls are good at those --- prolly the only thing you're good at besides holding a Tiki Torch LOL

Sensitive about that hair huh?

He didn't stir up this mess. The NFL did by not taking care of Kapernik a couple years ago. I stopped watching it last year because of him and stopped this year when I saw a guy sitting on a bench eating a banana during the Anthem. If they loose money I couldn't care less.

You sound like a typical crybaby Trump-Tard .... go put on a fresh pair of panties and get back to watching soccer or synchronized swimming LOL

FU JJ!!!!!

Put a couple of 40s on your mama's welfare card and slow your roll boy.

It has always been about the money. The NFL is there to may owners rich.

. . . and another thing:

Back around 9/11/2001, I was having back trouble-- upper back spasms that would knock me down to my knees. The doc gave me some muscle relaxants for when they got bad. I did not take them often and got off them as soon as possible, because they made me weepy and weird.

So 9/11 comes around and everyone spazzes out. Rightfully so; it was our generation's Pearl Harbor moment. They go to have the first big NFL game (maybe Giants at home (?)), while the twin towers was still smouldering and I'd had a back spasm earlier in the day and was in bed on one of the pills. If I remember, they pulled out all the stops for this one-- a field-sized flag, jets flying over, the works. I was high on the pills and it set me off. I'm weeping like a child, getting all patriotic, and then the network broke for a local commercial and it was some completely mundane car ad. Reality came crashing in.

The thought occured to me: This is theatre. You're getting your buttons pushed. This is entertainment in the guise of patriotism. This is not genuine. Somebody wants you to be all choked up right now.

Now don't get me wrong. I dig/dug the NFL. I've never been a hater. Although, there was about 10 years there around college, where I hardly watched. Even after this happened, I didn't feel bitter. However, I realized that all this patriotism and chest beating, and hand-over-the-heart schtick was all inserted at the beginning of games to sell beer, sell trucks, and sell the NFL. That's all it's there for on Sunday afternoon. That's all the reason it was ever there. If they could have sold more beer and trucks having a pre-game dwarf tossing contest, they'd have done that instead.

I'm just saying.

I hear what you're saying, but what it all means to them is different than what it all means to some of us. That's where the anger comes from. We're pissed because they're running around trying to figure out how to "fix" this. And as you said, they are looking for a means to an end, a path to the bottom line. Which many of us know is completely disingenuous. Some of us just WANT to see them do the right thing, because it's the right thing to do. Yet they keep leaving breadcrumbs everywhere that tell us, they don't know or care what the right thing really is.

And that brings me back to something my Dad used to tell me- you can't buy integrity, you just have to have it.

sawbuck, this seems close to my reaction to the blatant disrespect of some NFL players.

I'll explain:
I don't see how their behavior can be "fixed" or "amended" to get me back as a fan in the near future?!
Yes the players could be made to stand showing respect,

But It will all ways be remand of their piss-poor actions and
won't trust that they are genuinely respectful;
Just standing, etc. to avoid some kind of punishment.

.......REALITY .....is a bitch.

America told you all to f-off.

Load the Leftist clown car and head to the nearest port
to sail for your Socialist Utopia.....if you can find it.

You should really be mad at whoever brainwashed you.


(Filthy Liberal Cultural Marxist) Democrats suffered a net loss
of 1,042 state and federal posts,
including congressional and
state legislative seats, governorships
and the presidency during
"Pres-i-who?" Barack Obama's
eight years in office...

Democratic U.S. Senate
seats dropped from 55-46,
while their share of the House
went from 256 seats to 194.
Democratic governorships went from 28 to 16.
Some 958 state legislative seats were lost by the Democrats.
Republican Donald Trump was elected president

It's nice to see someone in here besides filthy masses of brainwashed, uneducated Trump-Tards who can't think for themselves and need to do a stupid "Seig Heil, Seig Heil" at every Trump rally to pretend they're "patriots".

My Dad fought in the steamy 'Nam jungles from '68-'71 and came back and started his own construction business and did well for himself. Never dwelled on "fake patriotism" to help him deal with the horrors of war and PTSD and all that stuff. My Dad was smart enough to know that REAL patriotism comes from supporting your country and it's ideals and all that stands for --- good or bad. He's smart enough to know that the flag represents the Constitution --- NOT the military or police or whatever whimsical symbol the right-wing loudmouths claim it is. NFL players taking a knee for social injustice represent the ideals of the Constitution a HELLUVA lot more than some racist white cop beating up a black motorist just because his KKK chapter tells him it's "the right thing to do" when you got a gun and a badge to make you feel macho that night.

And my Dad sure as hell doesn't appreciate it when a SIX-TIME draft-dodging COWARD P*SSY-GRABBER Trump tries to tell a country how to be patriotic! If Trump ever visited our house, my Dad got 2 knuckle sandwiches waiting for that cowardly silver-spooned Commie crybaby !! Pop goes the weasel, baby!

You must be from Oregon. Only explanation.

Ohio actually --- but keep believing all those Faux News bubblehead delusions if it makes you feel better about yourself
