Joe Biden and the White House Finally Invite Georgia Bulldogs After Brewing Public Backlash

In the past, a winning sports team would be invited to visit the White House to acknowledge their achievements. Sports teams from all over the world have experienced this. The United States of America since 1865.

But, even though the Georgia Bulldogs football club had a remarkable season in 2022, winning back to back national championships under Kirby Smart as head coach, the team waited over a month for an invitation.

Finally, President Joe Biden and White House invited the champions after a backlash on social media and a news cycle.

WJCL reports They received a statement on Wednesday night from the White House “The President looks forward to welcoming the Georgia Bulldogs to the White House.”

This invitation comes after Georgia Bulldogs defensive lineman Warren Brinson took to social media to express his frustration after the team was again left off the guest list for a White House visit. Brinson is a Savannah junior who tweeted his frustration. “No invite to the White House is crazy” In response to the news.

John Matrixx on the YouTube channel Black & White Sports Also, comments were made before the White House invitation arrived. “The lack of invitation for the Bulldogs has been met with confusion and disappointment, particularly as the team’s 15-0 record and dominant season would seem to merit recognition from the highest office in the land.”

Matrixx argued “Georgia had a dominating season, and they get stiffed by the White House. This doesn’t make any sense. What excuse are they going to use this season? They tried to use the virus last season, but the Rams are at the White House, the Warriors are at the White House, and the Braves are at the White House. What is the excuse this time? Why is Georgia not getting an invite?”

Matrixx is not convinced that President Biden will visit the White House because of his history of controversial statements and verbal gaffes. “Yeah, you guys aren’t missing out on anything by not getting invited to the White House. You guys should be thankful that you don’t have to listen to Joe Biden fumble and mess up his words. He’s half dead, guys.”

This discrepancy has led some people to question whether there was any political motive for excluding the Bulldogs.

OutKick.com founder Clay Travis spoke on Fox News, “As soon as we share this clip on social media, I bet someone at the White House will hear alarm bells. They’re going to go, ‘wait a minute, this is a state that Joe Biden won in 2020. This is a state that Joe Biden will think he needs to win again in 2024.’ The two most popular things in the state of Georgia, by far, are the Georgia Bulldogs and the Atlanta Braves. They have got to get the Georgia Bulldogs into the White House. This is crazy to me. I don’t know what the White House is thinking.”

This morning, I attacked the Biden White House for not inviting Georgia’s football team for a title-visit the past two year. The Biden White House invited Georgia for a visit tonight. It looks like they also watch Fox News. https://t.co/flPcgOvCOT

Despite not receiving an invitation from President Obama, the Bulldogs can be proud of their back-to-back titles and dominant season in 2022. While the White House may not have recognized the Bulldogs until recently, their success earned them admiration from all corners of America.

Are you adamant that the White House forgot to invite the Bulldogs?
