The problem isn't with Thomas being an idiot, he's entitled to that and he's a professional hockey player so it's not really reasonable to expect the guy to be a bastion of intellectual brilliance. The problem is that this is reportedly a team-first guy who took a pretty special event for a lot of Bruins players and staff and made it all about him, right down to the press release. If you want to opt out of a photo op based on not wanting to help the President politically, okay, but do it silently and let your teammates enjoy the moment.
Personally I think he should have gone out of respect for the office if nothing else; you may not agree with the President but he's still your President.
I have no prob with TT skipping the White House. In my mind nothing trumps personal politics. If he is suspended then what next?
As far as OV, thats effing hilarious. Having said that the All Star game sucks, and every year my wife and I make a night of the skills competition. Even that sucks. We'll be watching Netflix this weekend.
I take it you've played organized sport, and I find this odd coming from you.
When you're part of a team, you sacrifice part of your individuality every time you put on the jersey or the sweater and it becomes about more than you. Rejecting a Nobel Prize is fine, in my book because it's YOUR award. Rejecting an invite to meet the President at the White House with your team is not OK, because it isn't about you -- it's about the team.
For example, If I were Chris Drury two years ago when Sarah Palin was asked to dropped the puck in Philly, I would have refused.
What do you guys think of the All Star draft? Chara's team is stacked.
