The Eagles cal h briplce f ur democray home, so i n uprie that this team embodies everything that makes our country and our city great. Their athletic accomplishments on the field led to an historic victory this year. Fans all across the country rallied behind them because we like to root for the underdog and we feel joy when we see the underdogs finally win. I'm equally proud of the Eagles' activism off the field. These are players who stand up for the causes they believe in and who contribute in meaningful ways to their community. They represent the diversity of our nation-a nation in which we are free to express our opinions. Disinviting them from the White House only proves that our President is not a true patriot, but a fragile egomaniac obsessed with crowd size and afraid of the embarrassment of throwing a party to which no one wants to attend.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump Follow The Philadelphia Eagles Football Team was invited to the White House. Unfortunately, only a small number of players decided to come, and we canceled the event. Staying in the Locker Room for the playing of our National Anthem is as disrespectful to our country as kneeling. Sorry! 11:55 PM -4 Jun 2018

Trump Statement

Subject: Statement by the Presid< Reply-To: whitehouse noreply@messages.whitehouse.go THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JUNE 4, 2018 Statement by the President The Philadelphia Eagles are unable to come to the White House with their full team to be celebrated tomorrow. 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. These fans are still invitee to the White House to be part of a different type of ceremony one that will honor our great country, pay tribute to the heroes who fight to protect it, and loudly and proudly play the National Anthem. I will be there at 3:00 p.m. with the United States Marine Band and the United States Army Chorus to celebrate America Unsubscribe The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington DC 20500 202-456-1111

NFLPA statment

NFLPA @NFLPA NFLPA The NFL chose to not consult the union in the development of this new "policy." NFL players have shown their patriotism through their social activism, their community service, in support of our military and law enforcement and yes, through their protests to raise awareness about the issues they care about. The vote by NFL club CEOs today contradicts the statements made to our player leadership by Commissioner Roger Goodell and the Chairman of the NFL's Management Council John Mara about the principles, values and patriotism of our League. Our union will review the new "policy" and challenge any aspect of it that is inconsistent with the collective bargaining agreement.

What I'm hearing from players: Those who weren't planning demonstrations for next season are now back in the conversation, discussing ways to skirt to new rules "just to spite the NFL."

“Appropriate respect for flag and anthem” implies that guys were being disrespectful towards it. Which is an opinion. Most people who believe that ignore the responses from the players and more importantly why men chose to protest.

Political protests by players on their own platforms are none of the NFL's business. But squelching anthem protests on the field during a league-sanctioned activity is the NFL's business for the same reason baseball punished Yuli Gurriel for in-game, on

Political protests by players on their own platforms are none of the NFL's business. But squelching anthem protests *on the field during a league- sanctioned activity* is the NFL's business for the same reason baseball punished Yuli Gurriel for in-game, on- camera gestures.
