Jerry Jones boob grab

Jerry Jones apparently has been studying way too many tapes of old tobacco owners from when they used to deny the link between smoking and lung cancer.

The Dallas Cowboys owner apparently told reporters Tuesday it is “absurd” to link CTE to football.

Nope, players banging their heads into each other at high speeds over and over would NEVER cause any head trauma nor long-term damage whatsoever. To think that is out of the question!

Of course, this is the same man who gave noted woman beater Greg Hardy a job and called him a great leader, so you know his word is meaningless. It’s just unbelievable how strong his commitment to the concealment of truth really is.
