American Conference Commissioner Tim Pernetti praised President Donald Trump after Trump signed an executive order to protect the exclusive broadcasting window for the annual Army-Navy football game.

Pernetti expressed the conference's "deep gratitude" for the order.

"The American Conference is deeply grateful to President Trump for his strong leadership in issuing the historic executive order to preserve America’s Game," Pernetti said in a statement.

"This is a meaningful step that protects a cherished national tradition and reinforces what makes the Army-Navy Game so special to our country.

"The Army-Navy Game represents far more than football. It honors our service academies, highlights the character and commitment of our future leaders and brings Americans together around values that matter deeply, including service and sacrifice.

"This executive order is a positive step for the sport, for our service academies and for the enduring legacy of America’s Game. We are proud to be a part of the team working to protect it."

Trump signed the order Friday as he presented the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy to the Navy football team in the East Room of the White House. The order directs the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Department of Commerce to coordinate with relevant parties, including the NCAA, the College Football Playoff (CFP) and broadcast partners, to secure an exclusive broadcast window for the standalone game.

The executive order came amid growing concerns that an expanding College Football Playoff calendar could encroach on the game's traditional date, which since 2009 has been played exclusively on the second Saturday in December.

The classic rivalry, first played in 1890, has been played annually since 1930 and typically draws 7 million to 8 million viewers, making it one of the highest-rated regular-season games in college football. The current television agreement with CBS Sports runs through 2038.

Trump, who has attended multiple Army-Navy games as president, framed the move in January as an act of patriotism, writing on social media, "Under my Administration, the second Saturday in December belongs to Army-Navy, and ONLY Army-Navy!"

As the postseason structure of college football continues to evolve, this executive order signals a significant commitment by the administration to maintain the standalone grandeur of a matchup defined by the phrase "sing second."

    The reigning 2025 NBA champions won’t be making the traditional visit to the White House due to a timing issue. 

    The Oklahoma City Thunder are due to play the Washington Wizards Saturday evening, but a team spokesperson said that, despite talks with the White House, the team will not be celebrating with the president.

    "We have been in touch with the White House, and we are appreciative and grateful for the communication we have had, but the timing just didn’t work out," the team said in a statement obtained by The Associated Press.

    It was not immediately clear whether a formal invitation had been extended to the team. Fox News Digital has reached out to the White House for confirmation.

    The White House has a long-standing tradition of welcoming championship teams to celebrate their achievements. On Friday, President Donald Trump invited the Navy Midshipmen after a historic season that culminated in winning the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy.

    TRUMP SAYS US WOMEN'S HOCKEY TEAM WILL 'SOON' VISIT WHITE HOUSE AFTER DECLINING SOTU INVITATION

    Teams have declined a White House visit in the past. The most notable instance was in 2017 when the Golden State Warriors had their invitation withdrawn by Trump after Stephen Curry and other players indicated they were not interested in visiting.

    Trump recently invited the U.S. men’s ice hockey team to the White House and the State of the Union address after their gold medal victory over Canada at the 2026 Milan Cortina Olympics. The women’s team was also invited amid controversy regarding a quip the president made during a call with the men’s team. 

    The women’s team declined Trump’s invitation to the State of the Union address, citing "previously scheduled academic and professional commitments."

    "We are sincerely grateful for the invitation extended to our gold medal-winning U.S. Women’s Hockey Team and deeply appreciate the recognition of their extraordinary achievement," USA Hockey said in a statement. 

    "Due to the timing and previously scheduled academic and professional commitments following the Games, the athletes are unable to participate."
