Fresh off the PATRIOTS victory, and; while still on the Patriots team bus, DEVIN McCOURTY wrote a text message to TIME Magazine:
"I'm not going to the White House. Basic reason for me is I don't feel
accepted in the White House. With the president having so many strong
opinions and prejudices I believe certain people might feel accepted there
while others won't. I can't imagine a way I go there."
Why will his teammates NOT be visiting our nation's capital to meet Commander-in-Chief #45???
