This Guy Gets It
Published:
I’ve said my piece about Jerry Jones and the national anthem controversy, but this guy says it better.
This is ABC Dallas sports anchor Dale Hansen talking about the hypocrisy of Jerry’s stance (after the jump):
“It’s incredible to me that a player can beat up a woman and play for the Dallas Cowboys. A player can use illegal drugs time and time again and still play, but you take a knee to protest the racial injustice in America, and now you’ve crossed a line that he will not allow. Jones loves and respects the national anthem so much that when it was being played before the start of practice Saturday, he left his cap on. And when he was told about the mistake he was making, he still left his cap on. He who makes the rules, apparently doesn’t have to follow them.”
Time’s yours.
