A sufficiently ingrate black athlete will complain that the ice is white.

Who cares? Some one wants to go, then go , some one does not then don’t. Of the littlest importance! There are important things happening in our country and what sports people visit the White House is not on the list!

Trump got a lifetime award from Jessie Jackson years ago. But I guess that makes no dif at this point once you swallow too much lib media slop

Listen, athletes for the most part just aren’t that bright. They never had to be since they were carried along in school because of their ability on the field of play. However they believe they are experts on everything because they have had their butts kissed by all the hangers on throughout their sports lives.

One of my favourite Caps (and people in the game), so I'm not really concerned about that other fellow.

Maybe he is mad at Trump for claiming credit for the low black unemployment rate, when everyone knows it’s because all the black people got jobs acting in TV commercials.

Forget invitations, let’s do applications.

Make players AND even fans of a championship team APPLY for a visit, on a form that begins:

I stand for the flag

I stand for the vets

Enclosed is my $10 (fans) $1000 (player) donation to the veteran charity indicated below (choose one).

Player and fan applications get put into separate baskets, then five players and five fans get selected to for the honor to meet their president and visit the White House.

Caps supposedly re-signed Smelly-Pelly for another year.

Was hoping he'd end up in Buffalo or Arizona.

With the exception of the playoffs, he is barely a fourth-liner

“Could someone please tell me what Trump EVER said that would make a black hockey player unhappy?”

He is an Canadian Black Hockey player. He does have a gripe. Trump has made a chump out of Justin Trudeau. LOL!
