I don’t go there so I wouldn’t know, but I assume it’s because of their god bothering.

**Ellis Dee** - I’ve never seen or heard any audible praying from the Cowboys. They may be church-goers, but I’ve not seen them less than respectful at non-Christian places of worship. They’re red-state rednecks, probably, but I can’t remember anything from the shows to show that they’re particularly small-minded.

My understanding is that it was actually some things they said at a fan event, involving a bit of homophobia. I don’t remember details, but it was after their first season.
