Who would invite that bunch into their house? Not me and I hope the President won’t.

Stand-up team: No Philadelphia Eagles players knelt for national anthem in 2017

BLACK POWER salutes are even worse, and they did those

Go eat horse sh!t, oh wait, your fans are already doing that, so go join them.

President Trump should just do away with inviting sports team to the Whitehouse, it is a tradition that no one will miss.

Good, Trump should publicly shame them and invite veterans over to the WH instead! More winning!

Knighthawk, you’re brilliant! He should invite the Medal of Honor winner who did the cointoss, and people like that.

Time to hold a grand WH reception for wounded vets from a Philadelphia hospital and honor some real national champions

It’s really worth it to get upset over a rumor.

Another really great idea. Isn’t there a wounded veterans game that could be shown as a video for veterans?

This might be click bait nonsense. But if it isn’t, I’ll dedicate my life to the destruction of the NFL.

I’ll spend money on it, I’ll protest them, I’ll write letters, boycott any sponsor of the NFL.

They should celebrate national wife and girl-friend beating day instead...

Rob Porter's gone.

Maybe that's why they don't want to visit.

Maybe he could invite superbowl players that want to serve as escorts for the veterans

Translation: black players threaten trouble against any white player who dares to break the boycott.
