Jerry Jones’ gesture may have set the stage for decertification
"I don’t think we’ve got your attention," Jones said, according to several players who spoke anonymously to Trotter. "You clearly don’t understand what we’re saying, and we’re not hearing what you’re saying. So I guess we’re going to have to show you to get your attention." Per Trotter, Jones then tapped his fists together. The players interpreted the gesture as a sign that a lockout was coming. (Maybe he was simply using Friends code for giving the finger.)
