2017 Wentzadelphia Eagles Thread
Re: 2017 Wentzadelphia Eagles Thread
Ya don’t think Trump being the President had anything to do with it?
Let’s be honest: this was another chance to beat the “Murica patriotism, take yer hat off and stand up straight sonny” shtick that I don’t dig at all from Trump. Yes, I realize it keeps the base in West Bumblefuck (I live in East BF) happy, but there’s blame on both sides here.
The Eagles were an easy target from a deep blue city (some purple suburbs notwithstanding). He wouldn’t have pulled this on the Packers or Cowboys.

The Eagles reportedly wanted to reschedule it to next week (when conveniently for them Trump wouldn't have been there). The WH said no. So the Eagles sent a new list that had only 10 coming, and reportedly only a few players. Of course 10 people and only a couple players would have looked ridiculous, so of course the WH cancelled. This one sounds like its on the Eagles, despite Trump then jumping on the anthem thing..Gil Dobie wrote:
Trump is still having a celebration with the Eagles fans. The team is not coming. Original plan was for 81 members of the Eagles delegation to attend. Not as many as thought planned to attend. Eagles wanted to reschedule, but Trump would have been traveling. So the Eagles sent a smaller list of people a day or so ago, and wanted the White House to change plans. Trump then said no to the Eagles, but will welcome the fans. As much as I dislike Trump, the Eagles management and some of the players do have some blame for this.
Your Tard President doesn't even know the words to God Bless America. Good God are you and the rest of the Trump Humpers Pathetic.

Hey Jon, I don't think I could quote the words of God Bless America and probably a majority of American's couldn't without a little practice. There's a lot more wrong with Trump than knowing the words to a song.dbackjon wrote:BDKJMU wrote:

Oh please. You know it. It is sung at every baseball game. And if you are the Uber-Patriotic President Trump pretends to be, you need to know more than just the first line and the God Bless America refrain.

All I'll say about this ongoing fiasco is that if there is anyone in America that should always be cheerleading the flag and anthem, it's the POTUS. It would be like the CEO of McDonalds being heard saying, "Meh, I'm not Lovin' It" or the CEO of Coke saying, "It was never the Real Thing". That said, style matters.dbackjon wrote:Gil Dobie wrote:

Woody Paige made an interesting point on Around the Horn. The USFL's New Jersey Generals, owned by one Donald J. Trump, never stood on the sidelines during the playing of the national anthem.

Trump can kiss off PA in 2020. That razor thin margin, consisting of BDK and his 44000 inbred cousins, is gone. Swamped by a flood of angry Eagles Nation diehards.

I'll also say - the Eagles missed a great opportunity to meet with the President and discuss criminal justice reform. It cuts both ways.

Stand beside them, and guide them,
Through the rips, through the holes, through the tears.
From the washer, to the dryer, to the clothesline in the air.
