The Tremendous Bowl Champions will probably be heading to the White Home sooner reasonably than later.
And that’s excellent news, as a result of there for some time, there was a rumor that the Philadelphia Eagles (who beat the tar out of the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs within the “Massive Recreation”) weren’t curious about visiting with President Trump. That wasn’t precisely out of the realm of chance, since Philly turned down the chance to go to the Commander in Chief after their final Tremendous Bowl win again in 2017 (throughout Trump’s first time period).
That was when the Eagles – together with different groups – had gamers kneeling in the course of the Nationwide Anthem… and Trump advised that NFL staff homeowners to fireplace any gamers who refused to face for the anthem.
Even with that historical past, the rumor that the Eagles didn’t need to journey as a staff to Washington D.C. to ring of their championship was a bit shocking – primarily as a result of President Donald Trump had been voicing his assist for the NFL in direction of the tip of the season. He even attended the Tremendous Bowl, and have become the primary sitting President to ever achieve this (shocking, proper?).
The one argument that made sense (aside from Philly wanting to remain out of politics) was that the Eagles might have seen the experiences earlier than the “Massive Recreation” of Trump seeming to favor Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs… and the Eagles have been holding a grudge. Nevertheless, after the sport, President Trump took a second to commend the Eagles on the Mac Levin Present:
“The Eagles have been actually, it was like flawless soccer, wonderful. Even the primary play, they referred to as it again. It was an extended move, it was, you realize, both a landing or going to be a landing. They referred to as it again, accomplished lengthy move, and so they went on to get landing after landing. They actually performed nice.”
So even when that was a priority, Trump’s feedback about them enjoying nice seemingly buried the hatchet. It was then only a matter of deciphering rumor from report, and it was ESPN’s Adam Schefter that cleared the air in direction of the tip of February that the hypothesis that the Eagles wouldn’t go to the White Home was false. It was truly only a matter of the Philly staff not receiving an invite to take action.
That modified immediately (or at the very least not too long ago), as NBC Sports activities Philadelphia’s John Clark confirmed with a spokesperson from the Eagles that Philadelphia would make a visit to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue:
“An Eagles staff spokesperson confirmed the Eagles group has accepted an invitation to go to the White Home and they’re engaged on scheduling a date and logistics.”

So there you have got it.
The Tremendous Bowl celebration for the Philadelphia Eagles will roll on, and roll as much as the White Home to go to with the POTUS himself. I’m certain nobody will point out that they skipped out on the custom final time. Really, if anybody does, I’m certain it’ll be Donald Trump. He’s not afraid to face issues head on, as we’ve seen up to now in his second time period.
Trump can also be blissful to have championship groups go to the White Home. The Eagles will truly be the second champion to go to the President throughout his second time period. He most not too long ago had the Stanley Cup profitable Florida Panthers go to the White Home in February.
And hey… when you are right here, if you wish to reminisce on Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs getting their you-know-what kicked on the world’s largest stage, this video will in all probability suffice:
