I think I'll have to have a Philly cheesesteak for lunch tomorrow.
With Cheese Wiz?

The mayor forgot penis size.

Anybody who knows Trump's history with the NFL has to be laughing at this latest debacle. The NFL turned his sleazy ass down cold back in the '80's and he's held a grudge ever since. What a petulant child in a man's body.

"President Trump canceled an invitation to the White House for the Super Bowl-winning Philadelphia Eagles on Monday, saying that “staying in the locker room for the playing of our National Anthem” was “disrespectful.”
This explanation, however, makes no sense. No Eagles players ever stayed in the locker room during the national anthem, nor did any players kneel during the regular season or the playoffs.
And when Fox News tried to pile on by showing footage of players it claimed were protesting during the national anthem, it backfired — because those players weren’t protesting; they were praying." Vox

Figures Fox would try to back their fair haired boy but damn...that's some serious egg on their faces.

Just read that at Trumps little anthem party, some guy in attendance knelt on a knee through the singing then got up and left.
Ha!
Would post a link but too medicated to do much more. Just laughing.
Good drugs with surgery. Ha!

Leaders from both teams vying for the NBA championship have already said that they do not want to be invited to the WH.

Trump attempted to sing along to “God Bless America,” but managed to get just two lines in before he obviously no longer knew the words. Trump didn’t just decide to stop singing. He picked the song back up when the chorus repeated:

I saw that earlier today. A reporter from Philly asked six people in that crowd if they knew who the Philly quarterback was and none could answer. It reminded me of the shills Trump hired to the kick off of his campaign.

ps Don't you pull any stitches laughing, (grin).

NFL free agent Colin Kaepernick’s legal team will reportedly seek federal subpoenas for President Trump and Vice President Pence to testify in his grievance alleging NFL owners colluded to keep him out of the league.

Yahoo Sports reported Thursday that lawyers for the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback will look to compel testimony from Trump, Pence and others who are familiar with the president's stance against players who protest during the national anthem.

Sources told the site that the subpoenas would likely focus on the Trump administration’s involvement with the NFL since Kaepernick opted out of his contract with the 49ers in 2017.

Yahoo Sports noted reports that Trump had spoken directly with some NFL owners about the protests, with sources telling the outlet that those conversations, and any pressure exerted on the NFL from Trump officials, would shape the subpoenas.

Kaepernick filed a grievance against NFL owners last year, alleging that they colluded to keep him out of the league.
