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

I knew I had seen this posting before the SuperBowl. Yet another case of fraudulent advertising?

Disclaimer: Though I did not watch the game, I WOULD have rooted for the Patriots.

STFD, STFU

Paid...barrels of cash...to play a game you love. Unless you have a great story or ethics worth emulating, not interested in the drivel coming from yer’ pie hole.

.02, YMMV

Good. Then our government employees don’t have to stop what they’re doing to cater to a bunch of over paid kneelers.

I rooted for the Eagles as the underdog - plus I like what I've heard about Foles - both Foles and the head coach gave glory to God and their Savior Jesus Christ after the game.

I'm guessing they will not go as a team to try to keep internal friction - sucks to be them and pass on this opportunity.

Don’t invite them at all. Problem solved. It’s retarded to have any sports team wasting our time and money with this crap.
I love sports, but sports is sports.

Going from Winners in the Super Bowl to Losers in the Eyes of the Nation in one fell swoop.

These kinds of infantile, petulant protests, make the Eagles look bad, not President Trump.

They should rethink their strategy here.

Amazing! The protests in support of BLM over police abuses have degenerated to showing full support for Obama’s police state.

It should not be automatic that these professional teams be invited to the WH. They are paid lots of money, get lots of press etc. WH should focus on amateur teams.

The first thing coach Peterson did after winning the SB was thank his Lord and Savior, QB’s Wentz and Foles are both vocal practicing Christians, star receiver Ertz is married to a star women’s soccer player, the team regularly holds Bible and prayer sessions in the locker room during the football season - strong conservative credentials with the team as a whole - I would be amazed if all hands rejected an invite from the White House........
