He's turning a non-political event (let's face it, every title team in every sport gets an invite - the only person I can think of who turned it down was James Harrison, and that was on truly bizarre "you don't invite the losers too" grounds) and turning it into a political event.


That is likely his intent. The fact that he is the only American means that he is the only one that has a vested interest in the outcome of the next election. As the MVP, maybe he thought he could use this event an excuse to promote whatever conservative political beliefs he holds. Ultimately, he is the only one that really has to deal with the fallout, if any. Whatever your opinion, the guy has balls to do something like that. Not many people would take a stand on anything much less this event.
