Cowboys Fan Petitions Obama To Remove Jerry Jones

(WSCR) The Cowboys, led by owner and GM Jerry Jones, haven't won a Super Bowl since 1995.

After such a long drought for a team that won three Super Bowls in four season in the early 90s, some fans are ready to see Jones hang it up. None may be more ready for Jones' exit than a man from Ft. Benning, Ga. who petitioned President Obama to remove Jerry Jones from power.

"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," reads the petition, which is published on the White House website and filed under "Human Rights." "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."

A minimum of 25,000 signatures are required for a petition to receive consideration. As of Tuesday afternoon, NFL.com reported that fewer than 500 U.S. citizens have signed.
