(NY Post) It didn't work for Ohio State fans, who petitioned President Obama to pardon their NCAA-sanctioned team so the Buckeyes could play in a bowl game this year, but now Dallas Cowboys fans will give it a shot.
Fans of America's team, which sits at 5-6 in the NFC East -- two games behind the rival Giants -- created a petition on the White House's website to get owner Jerry Jones impeached from his position with the team. Jones, who purchased the Cowboys in 1989, has been in charge of football operations ever since, and has stated he has no plans to give up control any time soon -- although he did say several weeks ago that he probably would have fired himself already. The Cowboys have won one playoff game since 1996.
The petition, in full reads:
“We, the Citizens of the Great State of Texas, and Dallas Cowboys fans worldwide, have been oppressed by an over controlling, delusional, oppressive dictator for way too long. Request the Executive Branch’s immediate assistance in removal of owner and GM, Jerry Jones. His incompetence and ego have not only been an extreme disappointment for way too long, but moreover, it has caused extreme mental and emotional duress.”
