What do you do?
I would sit that player for one game, no matter who he or she is, and say next time you might sit 6 games.
Or do fans take your bombastic anthem not as seriously?
I take it very seriously sir! I also won't shoot a bald eagle, pick a wild bluebonnet in Texas, speed pass a school bus with its flashing lights on, cross the street unless the walk sign is on, and love apple pie

Lad, you are truer than Reba McEntire's acting ability. More loyal to our statutes than the agile Greg Abbott. Handsomer than the former bar owner Dan Patrick (not his real name) and kinder than LBJ sending a bar mitzvah gift.
Me eye sheds a tearful gratitude for your upstanding ways.
I am not a royal, but me mum told me I was abducted from a mama at the Royal Rumble, so ...
Kneel and arise as a
True Knight of Texas. We are not worthy.

Why the incessant need to keep starting threads about this? There has been several already, two are still active in the Drama forum.......which is where this one will end up soon :facepalm:
The need to start such threads, Lester, is generated by fans such as you who will respond. I am glad you responded. It shows you care.
I salute you, Lester!

Thank you sir. I'll be known Sir Locimus of Dallas

Do nothing. By that, I mean don't condemn it or applaud it. Don't answer questions from the media about it. Simply give it no attention because you're screwed if you speak out in favor or against. No win situation.

If the veteran players thinks it's an issue that is distracting the team, they'll handle it in the locker room behind closed doors. Personally, I don't think we'll see any Cowboy's kneeling and not because of Jerry.

When I was 5 years old, I picked a bluebonnet and went to show it to my dad.

He was quick to inform me that it was a "serious crime" to pick that flower, and that the cops were probably on their way for me as we speak. Me, being naive and gullible, ran to my room and cried in a closet for an hour - until my dad came in to tell me he was joking!

Needless to say, I haven't picked any bluebonnets since that day :laugh:

But then you'd have groups protesting because the league wasn't recognizing and respecting the issue.

The media is by far the biggest driving factor in all of this.

Lad, that was a mean trick by dad. Give me the go-ahead and I will send some Exeter St. Teddy Boys to put a scare into him...

You might need to keep your thug muscle close at hand
' Gimme' cuz' Dexter ain't no Lester, he damn near be a frogman of the ol' U.D.T. lore,, and pretty sure he wouldn't even marinate a roadkill rattlesnake in that Milwaukee's best ice beer you're fond of,,, therefore ,kindly be a good lad and make nice with our fellow faceplate from the depths un fathomed !!!
( 200' down he's dove my bro!,,, no jive)

Maybe everybody should understand the pulse of the nation.....and not put there foot in the mouth (like Jason Garrett did).

I'm gonna give you a ' like'
Cuz it's a pretty good one, yet I've not yet because you used the ' issue' word and succinctly Illustrated the aged and tired drum beat driven tactic ,,, ya,well, I'm tired of the G D 'issues' more notably the narrative / premise that make up the G D ' issues' cuz' they ain't never gonna stop,change,or be ****ing satisfied,cuz' like the G D cancer that it is, utilize the useful idiots maneuver with feints and ploys while planning , prepping , implementing primary objectives,,,I know I'm spending entirely way to much time on around here too.:lmao:
