IIRC, NFL TEAMS consist of about 53 players.
10 were only going to the White House—less than 20% of ‘the Team’.
They won the Super Bowl as a TEAM. IF they are not going to go to the celebration as a TEAM, I would cancel the party also.
Trump’s party-—Trump’s rules.
At least Trump knows where he stands, and so do the voters.
The NFL is committing the slowest suicide on record.
I’ve moved to what I think is the proper solution to all this liberal caterwauling about race, income inequality, LGBT-whatever, big bad Oil, climate change, etc. etc. etc.
Don’t react, ignore!
Colleges graduate football players who can’t read. This is the result: Ignorant idiots.
Did any of these intellectual geniuses criticize the players who refused the invitation? They probably praised their “courage”. Just reinforcing the stereotype of the dumb jock.
I’ll skip posting a comment just as I’ll SKIP watching any NFL games this upcoming season.
The President is under no obligation to provide a platform for players who wish to make a political statement.
If these things are going to analyzed as if we were all Kreminologists, studying who stood where for the May Day Parade through Red Square, it is time to end the practice.
This is why we can’t have nice things. The President did not start this, but he will end it.
The networks that own them are evil to their core...their bottom-line business model being $$$(greed) and control over the serfs(power)by pushing their leftist political agenda subliminally or in your face...while you THINK you're actually just watching a "competition".
Predetermined outcomes can still be "entertaining" I suppose...but don't call it a "sport".
Sport = TRUE competition, the only competition in pro-sports today are in the flood of advertisers pushing their wares against competing businesses. Throw in the constant advertising of the networks own indoctrination garbage and you have nothing but a sh t sandwich the powers-that-be expect you to eat.
So many more entertainment/other choices today, why waste your appetite on this poisoned apple?
Cut the cord, starve(don't feed)the beast.
MAGA(indeed).
The upcoming season will be interesting, both to see what this sort of silliness does to attendance and viewership, and to see how long the media can remain in denial. MAGA.
Well fellas, let me splain it to ya.
If there is one thing American’s are sick to death of, it’s crime! American’s hate crime! They are sick and tired of working their asses off constantly to try and avoid it. They pay extra for a nice home, school, neighborhood, every single thing in their life, they pay extra for just to escape crime!
You know, filthy criminal dirtbag thugs like Michael Brown. Michael Brown was a thug piece of garbage. Most American’s choose to stand in Solidarity with Convenience Store Clerks and Police Officers. You guys, well you chose to kneel in Solidarity with the Michael Browns.
So f*ck you and your stupid game!
If you get invited to the White House and you can’t show basic respect for the Country then why do you think you deserve to go?...You dont
Football was great when it was about entertainment, competition and sports. Now that it is just a political tool, well, they can walk the plank.
He will probably privately invite them, but tell those who want to squeal about it to the press to disinvite themselves.
Ah yes Torrey Smith - no longer with the Eagles - because he couldn’t catch the ball, IMO.....
As a FORMER Redskins and NFL fan, I didn’t even know the Eagles had won the SuperBowl.
Didn’t see it fall, therefore that tree never fell.
The Eagles what..? Dunno.
Philadelphia mayor calls Trump a “tyrant”>>>>>>>
I celebrate that we now have a father who leads the whole nation against the Obama black power nationalists who support the sanctuary city model of dissolution of the United States of America and its traditional patriotic values/
Thank you President Trump. It is not you who is the tyrant. The tyranny comes from those who would use a hitherto patriotic platform to transform our country into a collection of weak kneed weenies who would not want out country back. This comes straight out of Saul Alinsky’s “ Rules for Radicals,” the operations manual for the Obama hegemon. One of the results is the murder in cold blood of 28 police officers so far in 2018.
If you are a Republican patriot or Democrat patriot, the one thing you must know is that we are at war, a demographic war and a cultural war with a liberal fascist movement. This “take a knee” is much more than a simple protest by players each who earn on average about 2.2 million dollars a year, thanks to patriot Americans who watch the game.
Our country and its continuity hang in the balance.We must not devolve into a collective of liberal fascist city states.
If the pro football league has to tank to keep ourselves free, so be it.
Spoiled African brats, amd make no mistake this is an African thing. They don’t deserve citizenship. Black LIES do matter to Americans.
Oh really?
Didn't most of these 'players' go to college?
Don't colleges 'disinvite' speakers that are Conservative all the time??
Did these guys EVER 'protest' anything while in college???
