What's it all aboot?

[Mike]

eh?

[Shep]

Bruins goaltender Tim Thomas refused going to visit the White House with the Stanley Cup Champion Team today because he's mad about President Obama. Comments coming and blah blah blah.

My guess is that the White House didn't want to have a guest more popular than the president. #TimThomasGoesMissing

Meanwhile, Thomas is probably at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean; weighed down by cinder blocks.

Breaking: NHL statisticians reviewing possible shut-out addition to Thomas's 2011-12 numbers after shutting out the Washington Capitalists.

Maybe Tim Thomas finally realized he needed to pump Roberto Luongo's tires.

Glorious. I'd have done the same thing in a Bush White House.

[KapG]

I love it.

Disrespectful IMO. He has/had lots of opportunity to make his political beliefs and views knows - nothing wrong with have a conflicting opinion or wanting a discussion on a topic, no need to disrespect the president who won a democratic election.

His right to be disrespectful. If I do not respect somebody I won't pretend that I do.

His political beliefs are well-documented.

[MSP4LYFE]

^ Agreed.

[Shep]

Thank you Tim Thomas for having the balls to do this.

Tim Thomas has three children named Kiley, Kelsey and Keegan.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Agreed.

Tim Thomas is a known republican who said if he could have dinner with anyone he'd love to have dinner with Glen Beck.

I agree its disrespectful to the office, furthermore its a team event swallow it up and protest in the voting booth and elsewhere. No need to see politics get mixed up with sports.

now officially my favorite player

[armandtanzarian]

Oh Timmy....There goes the Bruins chance at a cup this year....While i respect him for what he did, it is probably going to taint the room a bit. Hopefully it doesn't show up on the ice.

[anton]

it's pretty impossible for this to not create some sort of tension/awkwardness in the dressing room.

but i guarantee that goes away as soon as timmy steals them a game.

Thomas is getting traded to Tampa Bay for Brett Connolly

[KapG]

I think Tampa should trade Brett Connolly and something to LA for Bernier......that would make me smile lots.

Interesting....That could come back to haunt them. He hasn't been playing that great tbh. Knowing that this was going on behind closed doors for quite some time might be a factor in his play....maybe.
