Since the late 1970s, the Dallas Cowboys have been known as “America’s Team.” In light of recent Trump White House statements, however, Dallas might want to consider handing that title over to the Philadelphia Eagles.
"The Philadelphia Eagles are unable to come to the White House with their full team to be celebrated tomorrow,” the White House said in an eleventh-hour statement issued on Monday after learning that only two or three players, owner Jeff Lurie, and mascot Swoop were able (or willing) to meet President Donald Trump, as has become customary for championship teams in the U.S. “They disagree with their President because he insists that they proudly stand for the National Anthem, hand on heart, in honor of the great men and women of our military and the people of our country. The Eagles wanted to send a smaller delegation, but the 1,000 fans planning to attend the event deserve better."

They really are the biggest cry baby fans, and when anyone says it they respond “You don’t get it”. No, I really do. All they do is complain. They turn against the biggest sports stars on their own teams, embitter them, and chase them out of the city.
Black Lives Matter
NFL is Not For Long.
Their PR Director is Joe Lockhart. They are a democrat leftist organization.
Soar like a turd.
Eagles and NFL are irrelevant. Heck, only two players were going to go to the White House. They should be and are embarrassed.
Pure BullS###, the Eagles are no one’s team except Eagles fans. Maybe they are NBC’s fans too. But any team that disrespects America, Trump etc. would be their team.
NBC / MSNBC = FAKE News. They let their TDS and hate get in the way of any sense of reality. Makes it tough to report the “news”.
I read yesterday that Tim Thomas refused to go to the White House in 2012..and the media hammered him on it saying it was the “Wrong time to make a political statement” LOL..gee, these are the same people now kissing the Eagles asses(And Golden State Warriors since they are about to win the title) for not wanting to come to the White House
Your Deadskins suck. And, we still have a head coach and 2 Qb’s who give GLORY to the LORD everyday, and our state went for Trump.
What does Maggie know about anything? For that matter, what do these idiot players know? Their protest is based on lies, and they have no clue what freedom of speech is about. Neither does Goodell.
Im in Philly territory and have about 20 hard core Eagles fans on Facebook. Almost all side with Trump on this issue. The handful who havent voiced in are hardly on FB.
I’m an American and I don’t remember voting for the Illadelphia Beagles for anything.
No no no. Just no
And NBC is not a corporation that produces news

BWAHAHA Oh I get it, they throw a tantrum for not visiting the WH and all of a sudden, they are out team???
Stupidity is strong in this one...
One SB win and all of a sudden they are America’s Team?! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Eagles are indeed how America perceives the NFL. That is why the ratings will continue to tank.
This is pure propaganda to sooth the burning sensation from having been struck by Trump’s lightning.
Not my team, bitch.
