Tom Brady’s Knee
Sep 13th, 2008 by Andy
With apologies to my brother-in-law, I’m not a big Patriot’s fan. I used to be okay with them and I generally respect their latest successes but for the past year or two I have found Tom Brady and Bill Belichick to be annoying.
Brady seemed to be a cry baby about any little thing that went wrong on the field. I respect his intensity and desire to win, it just seemed like he could lead the team with a little more class or something. Belichick is even worse. I don’t mind that he’s surly but the secrecy around injuries is dumb and the whole spy-gate thing was a joke. If Belichick and the Patriots are so great why would they need to cheat? I don’t think the cheating is what made them great - but it sure makes them look dumb. And enough with the stupid sweatshirt - can’t he wear something nice?
BUT, regardless of my opinion of the Patriots I will admit that it was a bummer to see Brady go down with the injury. I’d rather have him in there and get beat fair and square. I guess there’s always next year.
