James Harrison went from an undrafted player to this year’s NFL Defensive Player of the Year. He won a Super Bowl. He just got a big contract extension. And now he’s snubbing Barrack Obama’s invitation to the White House. His reason? He would’ve invited the Cardinals had they won.

“I don’t feel the need to go, actually,” Harrison told Pittsburgh station WTAE-TV. “I don’t feel like it’s that big a deal to me.”

Harrison doesn’t believe the invitation is all that special, saying if the Steelers hadn’t beaten the Cardinals 27-23 with a last-minute rally, “He [Obama] would have invited Arizona.”

Problem is, if Obama invited the Cardinals, he’d have to invite everyone. And the market is doing bad enough as is; the last thing we need is for the Lions’ luck to rub off on some of the top financial advisors.
