What's embarassing is some idiot coming into a hockey forum and exclaiming "Let's go Yankees"
Just read an article on it, and here's how I feel.
Good for him. He simply stood up for what his beliefs were. He didn't try to push his beliefs onto his team, but he stood firm and declined the invitation.
Props to Chiarelli & Neely for asking Thomas to come with the team, but allowing him his freedom of choice when he declined.
This man stood up for a belief that he has. He was negative toward nobody, and nobody was harmed. He embarrased nobody. We need more people like Thomas in the world today who aren't willing to go along with the status quo.
Whether or not you agree with his political lean, you should admire a positive citizen (who's in the limelight), who chooses to respectfully stand firm.

you are talking to someone who respected the rights of his goalie, that would not be with his team, to shake hands, and the team respected that! and no comments made were pro or con against the establishment, strictly pro of thomas,s decision!

As for celebrating, I am sure the Bruins did plenty of that as a team on their own. The visit to the White House is about bullshit apple pie hooplah to feed the propaganda machine, which sounds to be exactly what he was protesting by not going. That's how I see it but there will be many views of this very touchy subject no doubt.
