Welp, someone defaced it already https://t.co/lj96ADQ4Fw — SportsDay Cowboys (@dmn_cowboys) August 6, 2018 Wilder was not upset about the six-foot-high, 10-foot-wide mural being vandalized. “You know what, it’s already done its job. So, it really didn’t matter,” he told the Star-Telegram . “ Besides, that’s what happens at the (Fabrication) Yard.” The Fabrication Yard, located in the Trinity Groves area of Dallas near an intersection of Interstate 30 and Interstate 35, is known for graffiti art. However, if you like Wilder’s art, he was expected to debut his work publicly at an exhibition from Aug. 20 to 26 at Ridgmar Mall in Fort Worth, Texas. Prescott responded with indifference to the mural. “Everybody has their own opinion. It is what it is,” he told the Star-Telegram . “ When I made my statements on the anthem, I knew there would be backlash. No surprises.” When asked if he had any regrets about his original comments, he continued: “As I said, I made my statement. I stand by what I said. I just said some people may have misunderstood it or whatever. I feel strongly about what I said. And it is what it is.” See Prescott’s original comments about the NFL and kneeling in the video below: SEE ALSO: Meet Jogger Joe, The Man Who Took Racist Cue From BBQ Becky In Tossing Homeless Man’s Clothes Trump-Supporting DA Calls ‘Ghetto’ Maxine Waters A ‘Bitch,’ Can’t Believe She Hasn’t Been Shot This Colin Kaepernick Retweet Says Everything You Need To Know About The NFL Players’ Anthem Grievance [ione_media_gallery src=”https://newsone.com” id=”3785430″ overlay=”true”]
