Beef Jerky for all!

* uses my ebt card *

Inside joke from our F@nnation days folks....nothing to see here.

I miss those days. Although I do love stirring the pot in the political threads. It's like a shooting gallery in there and I have unlimited shots.

I mean, the Cowboys aren't the only act in town, right? I don't watch football so can somebody please remind me, when was the last time the Cowboys won anything??
When I was 15.

"U bum @StephenCurry30 already said he ain't going! So therefore ain't no invite. Going to White House was a great honor until you showed up!"

I know I will get a lot of shit for posting this but I think LeBron James crossed a line here. I was never exactly a fan of him to begin with, however this so-called role model and community activist just proves what a self-absorbed asshole he is. Fine if you don't like the person, but very disrespectful to the position of President of the United States.

I also think this is a weak attempt to make nice with Steph Curry

"hey everybody, look at me!!!!!!!!"

guy who lies about his house being vandalized

Can someone just tell me what's the end goal in all of this kneeling bullshit? Where's the oppression that I constantly keep hearing about?

I really hope that the Cowboys decide to protest tonight as a team. Jones is bluffing. A man who signs wife beaters is not cutting a prominent player over an anthem protest. If the player sucks, then sure. Dak, Zeke, etc can do what they want.

I wouldn't be so sure. Before winning, Jerry Jones is about his pride. He fired Jimmy Johnson right after he won back-to-back super bowls.

Maybe the Russians are to blame.

Replacing a coach, even a great one, is easier than replacing a quarterback + other stars.

I disagree. Football is mostly dependent on coaching compared to a sport like basketball where talent wins out.

Why is kneeling bullshit?

Because what's the end goal? Why do this during the national anthem? What does the anthem have to do with police brutality and this supposed oppression?

No one can ever give me an answer on the first question.

They do it during the national anthem because it is the only time they can have a peaceful/silent protest on a public stage. Any other form of protest they choose to do would be a distraction to their team. Also the end goal is obvious if you took 10 seconds to do a little research. A lot of these guys are doing great work behind the scenes that never gets talked about as they work towards that end goal.

Also it is pretty clear that almost all of these protest are due to the comments that man in the white house made on Friday night in Alabama. Prior to this week, they had less than 10 players protesting and everyone kept their mouth shut about it and went about their life. Now all of sudden because these guys took a stand because of the offensive comments made on Friday night it is some big issue? The quicker he realizes this isn't a dictatorship country then the better off things would be.
