Tim Thomas, as if Buffalo Sabre fans, at least the rational ones don't have enough reasons to hate the Boston Bruins, you have yet another one to add to the man between the pipes. Tim Thomas proved what a "tool" he is by dissing the traditional meeting with the President.

Tim Thomas tried to play it that he disagrees with all of our government but lets face it, he doesn't like the politics of one man. President Obama. The guy is a self proclaimed fan of nutbag Glenn Beck which says all you need to know about what he means by saying he disagrees with all government.  

Okay, disagree with President Obama on politics, don't like the way our government is going, thats fine, but save it for a day when that's the issue. Save it for a side conversation with the President either before or after the photo-ops, but to not show up because you disagree with the politics is just insane.

Presidents for years have gone out of their way from doing much more important things to invite championship teams to the White House and to turn that opportunity down over a disagreement on politics is just plain disrespectful. Don't like the politics fine, but have a mutual respect for the man who invited you and show up, smile and take your picture with your team.

There used to be a day where you could disagree on politics and still have a mutual respect for one another and for the most part, that is still there, except for dickheads like Tim Thomas who have to voice up to prove what kind of a man they are, He is a tool, plain and simple. Stick to playing hockey, thats what you get paid millions to do. What a poor example he sets too for the youth of this country who look up to him. Tim Thomas is one big tool.
