I think he’s one of the clowns who also supported Kaepernick in his silly little national anthem protest.

Nothing new here, it’s a nothing burger. Athletes have declined to meet with Presidents whether they were Republican or Democrat for a long time.

The poor slob will regret it if he doesn’t go. The issue will follow him for the rest of his life. If he wants to be an Azzhole, hey...it’s America...it’s your right.

The thing that amazes me is that, in the past, every single member of every winning team who went to the White House supported the president in office at the time. Every single team member. That’s amazing. I mean, that has to be the case because otherwise, it means that Martellus is just being an immature baby.

He must be a Hillary supporter. We all know how good she has been to black Americans. There are a lot of people out there who are dumb enough to believe that Trump is racist. President Trump has done more for black Americans in two weeks then obama did in 8 years.

Now he’s gonna look like a $itch when Coach Bill Belichick makes him go.

Does this Dbag think he has a choice....Belichick doesn’t give two $hits about this guy and will cut him and replace him in a minute...SMH!!!

Belichick’s tolerance for insubordination is “ZERO.”

So, he won’t go if Coach says he doesn’t have to go...But that also probably means he won’t be a Patriot anyways.
