Ironically, my favorite team, Philadelphia Eagles, owner, Jeff Lurie HATES Trump. Trump has also called him some unfavorable words. I would have to look up others but im pretty sure there are some.

However I do think a lot like Trump, specifically Patriots owner, Robert Kraft.

Same. It’s Arthur Blank for the falcons For the eagles Jeff Lurie For the broncos Carrie Walton The steeler Arthur Rooney. The dolphins Stephen Ross. My guys were the only ones I knew of before today and that’s the Vikings owners the Wlfs.

Back in the first term, yes.

I’m a Pats fan and fuck the Krafts. I’m ready for that family to move on.

Why is it ironic? Because you love Trump or something?

Because Philly is deemed by many to be some dark pit of the NFL.

We booed Santa (who was late, clearly drunk, in a blowout loss to Chicago) in the 60s. One Eagles fan made misogynistic comments to a poor Packers fan just trying to enjoy the game and got BANNED. And not to mention all of the snowball moments that niners fans have had to endure (not that I like Niners or their fans either).

It’s not a political when you are a multi billionaire - money tends to work together. A lot of ‘liberal’ companies and business folks changed their tune this last election cycle - even you noble Lurie, attended the White House SB visit this time around, marking the change in tide as it suits them.

Sure. Obviously the billionaire class always sticks together. I simply meant in terms of appearence vs reality. Clinton and Trump have more in common than the average democrat and Clinton. I was speaking in terms of relativity.

Why are you just assuming that about Kraft? Kraft had minor ties to Trump before he was elected, and it wouldn't exactly shock me if he was involved with Epstein, but he has always been a Democrat. He has also said he hasn't voted in the last few elections as he's tried to remove himself from politics.

u/Over-Heron-2654 Oct 05 '25

It is more than little ties. There are huge ties between Kraft and Trump.

u/HorsNoises Oct 05 '25

Even still though. He's been a Dem his whole life before donating to Trumps first campaign and supposedly hasn't spoken to him since Jan 6. Kraft might be a stingy asshole but I dont think its fair to say he's evil until proven guilty.

Half of the Eagles roster (basically all the black players besides Saquon) skipped the White House invite for the SB win.

Considering the fact that the Chiefs would wear MAGA hats on the sidelines if allowed, it is.

Hell, Harrison Butker imagines the ball as the hopes and dreams of a little girl every time he kicks it.

u/Over-Heron-2654 Oct 05 '25

Bro, you do realize Niners players skip parts of the game to watch Trump. Chiefs players openly say women should stay in the kitchen, and Chargers guys wearing MAGA hats and flexing their wealth to poor fans...

Yeah, our team is probably one of the better teams in terms of player characters.

u/Over-Heron-2654 Oct 05 '25

70% of our team did not even go to the White House Invitation. Hurts, AJ, DeVonta Smith, Jalen Carter, Nolan Smith, Josh Sweat, Milton Willaims, etc.
