Has there ever been a "successful" Al Sharpton boycott? Someone should do a study to see if his boycott "targets" actually grow and improve after his boycott "proclamations".....

Ah yes...Jerry Jones, a man of moral conviction if ever there was one.
Kill a teammate via DUI? Welcome back to the team! Domestic assault? No big deal, here's a contract. Drug issues? No problem so long as you can produce on the field. Get caught with hookers on your wife's birthday? Who cares! Aggravated assualt over a parking spot? You can still play Outside Linebacker.
But don't you dare have a peaceful protest during the anthem.
Yes, a BIG SALUTE to Jerry Jones and his moral code for employee conduct.

And I wasn't saluting Jones. I was showing how the players don't have the right to protest.
NFL owners have put themselves in a terrible spot. Let players, that will be in the NFL for 3 years and leave broke, ruin your brand or stick up for yourself and piss off the vile left.

NFL just tweaked their policy to include forfeiture of draft picks. I think they'll all be standing now. Too late imo but this is all a big win for Trump.

Seems to me when you view this or that as a win or loss for Trump or any politician ... you lose sight of the bigger picture.

Right. You're just saluting the guy(Trump) that is saluting Jones. Otherwise, why bother to use the tweet?
Perhaps one of Trump's aides could have suggested mentioning another owner instead of Jones? Someone that doesn't consider peaceful protest worse than manslaughter, domestic violence, assault, drug use, etc.

I don't think you really understand what's going on in that tweet. Trump is knowingly putting Jones in a very bad spot. There are a bunch of people that share your point of view and there are boatloads of Dallas Cowboys fans in Texas that are completely disgusted with the players kneeling for the anthem.
That tweet isn't Trump being nice to Jones. That tweet is Trump putting Jones in the national frying pan.
Trump will now start tweeting that he made the owners, make the players, stand for the anthem. He knows how the players will feel about that. This is all the genius of Donald Trump. And rightfully so... the owners and the NFL never should have allowed it from the beginning... They did, Trump is burying them.
