      So everybody knows that when a team wins their sport’s championship whether it be the NBA Finals, The World Series and in this case The Superbowl, those teams visit the White House and get a chance to meet the president. Tell that to Steelers linebacker James Harrison. Harrison feels like he shouldn’t go. Harrison was quoted as saying, “I don’t feel the need to go, actually, I don’t feel like it’s that big a deal to me.” According to Harrison, if the Cardinals had won the Superbowl then Obama would’ve invited them. Uh…memo to James, that’s usually what happens when a team wins the Superbowl. Maybe it really isn’t that important to Harrison but the reasoning he’s using not to go just baffles me. Why not go celebrate the occasion with the teammates who gave everything for you to succeed and get that Superbowl?
