Good Article about T. Brady in the LA Times

Submitted by xtramelanin on

Mates,

Sent to me via link from a long-time friend who lives out west (a PSU grad, but a great one), I am attaching an article about the GOAT, Tom Brady.  The gist of the article is that most everybody outside of NE Patriot (and Michigan) fans who might not like Brady are going to be surprised by what a good guy he is, not some arrogant deflate-gate cheater.  A money quote here:

Just as he is closing in on goodbye, Brady, 40, has decided to say hello, revealing a side of himself that has little to do with deflating footballs or blowing up history.

He has talked like somebody's father.

"My kids are saying, 'Yeah, daddy, all my friends said go win the Super Bowl!'' he said.

He has talked liked somebody's son.

"My mom doesn't think I've ever done anything wrong. She tells me, 'Oh, no, you played great.' She's always just being a mom, always being protective of her son,'' Brady said.

He has talked about spending a couple of weeks each summer at his grandparents' farm in Browerville, a small town two hours northwest of Minneapolis.

"I remember my uncles gave me chewing tobacco for the first time when I was really young,'' Brady said. "Within five minutes I'm outside the car throwing up all over the place.''

He is the GOAT and a Wolverine.  Too cool.

Go Blue!
