...There Is Nobody For Any Team In The NFL That Wouldn't Love

Tom To Be Their QB, Don't Hate Him Because Your Team

Doesn't Have Him.

[GP6971]

1. No doubt he is a very, very talented QB

Exceptional I might add. But many don't like him or his coach and I don't think it has much to do about politics.

[MontanaMama]

2. I can't stand him because

he's a crybaby and he voted for the Dotard. Oh and he's a cheater with his deflated balls. Blech.

[dchill]

5. On board 100%.

[Grassy Knoll]

6. But If He Was On Your Team?

Who In There Right Mind Would Not Want Tom As Your QB? Nobody.

[MontanaMama]

8. Nope.

He's a whiner, cheater and a Dotard voter. And, kind of a shitty person. He's a hell of a QB but I can't get past the other stuff. I get your excitement tonight, however. Good luck in the Super Bowl!

Sorry... This is a personal favorite in our house:

[Grassy Knoll]

10. Roger That..

[flotsam]

12. Do you know what you call someone who posts something that simply isn't true?

Because that is what you've done.

[Grassy Knoll]

14. It Makes Them Feel Better That Their Team Can't Beat Brady, So They Shart....

...They Hate Him Because He is The GOAT And Nothing Can Possibly Change That.

[brush]

25. Nah, hate him because he's a repug.

[MontanaMama]

54. Uh. It's a joke.

The video anyway. It's generally accepted that he's a Dotard voter and whiny.

[smirkymonkey]

11. I hate him because I think he is a stupid jock who is so over-worshipped here in MA

and he has nothing to offer but his athletic skills even though he could do so much more for humanity. I am not a football fan and for some reason he just rubs me the wrong way. I don't know what it is, but I just don't like him.

[nini]

15. When he left his pregnant girlfriend that was enough for me

His trump love is just one of many things fhat makes him a pig.

And screw the Patriots. Shithole organization from top to bottom. Winning ain't everything.

[ProfessorGAC]

38. You Sure?

His wife said they did not support the idiot prince. And, the gas law suggests your cheating meme is false.

[MLAA]

3. I dont hate him because hes so good at football, I hate him because he is so bad at decency😬

Anyone, regardless of their talent, is disgusting if they are Impotus voters.

But I still congratulate you on the win. Good luck in the Super Bowl.

[True Dough]

4. If you don't give 2, do you give even 1 fuck?

[Grassy Knoll]

7. Being Italian, No!!

[democratisphere]

9. Brady supports drumpf.

That says it all about Brady.

[Beaverhausen]

13. Theyre cheaters

The Eagles will kick their butts!

[Grassy Knoll]

16. So If The Eagles Win...

Nobody Will Call Them Cheaters?

[Orrex]

39. Well, the Eagles will probably have their penalties called on them, unlike...

[Beaverhausen]

59. Have the Eagles been found to actually be cheaters?

My god, the cult of the Pats is strong. I have several friends who deny this confirmed cheating left and right.

[bluestarone]

50. yep like this

[Brother Buzz]

17. The Forty Niners could care squat about Tom Brady

Jimmy Garoppolo is the name everybody will be talking about next year, including the Patriots.

[Rollo]

20. True that...

And the dream Superbowl would be Garoppolo and the Niners vs. Carr and the Raiders while the Raiders are still in Oakland. After that, I don't give a fuck.

[mr_lebowski]

24. WORD ...

Chucky NEEDS to bring us that SB he should've gotten us in the 2002 Season.

Still pissed at Al for trading him away. Then we end up getting crushed by him in the SB? That was friggin' brutal.

[cwydro]

18. Omg.

One of the funniest (and most telling)posts I’ve ever seen here.

[Lint Head]

19. He supported a bigoted racist sexual predator who loves the murderer Vladimir Putin. He can go to

Hell with the rest of the Deplorables. I have no more respect for him than any other Nazi athlete who supported Hitler during the 1936 Olympics. Being a handsome football hero does not make him a god in any way shape or form. If he is blind enough to ignore the the very soldiers in my family any any other family who died fighting fascism then I am blind to his accomplishments. And I'd rather be blind than see that jerk succeed at anything.

[underthematrix]

21. I hate his racist ass. I'll be glad when he retires.

[beaglelover]

22. Fuck yeah!!!!!

[stopbush]

23. Its hard to like a team whose two biggest plays

are tossing the ball 30 yeards downfield, having your receiver stay as close to the defender as possible and making sure the defender makes contact with you so the refs will call pass interference (even when the ball was uncatchable) and the two yard dump-off pass.

Oh, and cheating.

[roscoeroscoe]

34. Awesome post

Exactly how that happened.

[ExciteBike66]

37. You must not have watched the same game I did

Amendola made some pretty great catches that were not PI and not dump-offs...

Arguably, though, our "biggest play" was stopping Fournette so many times...

[Mike Nelson]

26. I don't admire...

...him at all. He appears on my TV - in his knit hat - and seems to be so full of himself... I can't turn the station fast enough. I imagine, when he switches from football to spokesman, he will pitch a lot of products. I won't buy any on them.

[dalton99a]

27. Tom Brady wants the CBS cameramen to get the f*ck out of the way

Link to tweet

followed by Brady sitting on the sideline and asking the cameramen to “get the cameras off the fucking field.”

Link to tweet

[Mike Nelson]

28. All of the...

...conservative evangelicals will like him more for that behavior... but, if he were Black, they would be repulsed.

[smirkymonkey]

46. What a dick! Just like his buddy Trump.

I knew there was something about him that I didn't like. You just backed it up with two good reasons.

[airmid]

29. I don't hate him. I just don't give a flying f*ck if he falls off the face of the earth...

[pnwmom]

30. He didn't just vote for him, he ENDORSED him. Plus Brady's a cheater. I'm glad

he doesn't play for Seattle.

[DonCoquixote]

31. I dislike him because

He and his coach cheated so wantonly that the NFL became compromised. If you want to cheer him and Bill on, take a look at Basball back when it was a contest between New York and Boston to see who could buy the world series, or the NBA now that it has become the "Lebron james whines about losing to the Golden State warriors again" show.

[LenaBaby61]

32. OP ...

Brady endorsed a guy who literally doesn't give 2 shits about whether he KILLS others by taking their health care away for starters. Let that sink in.

Secondly, he and coach are cheaters, Kraft is besties with fatso-in-chief, and the zebras are mostly in their pockets. Thirdly, while he is a very good QB (I saw him when he was at Michigan), I don't think he's the GOAT--not given how soft the league has become the last decade or so (I don't see any Steel Curtain-type Defenses out there anywhere, and I surely don't see any dominant teams anywhere like there were years back), and given the fact that the rules have changed to stop almost all physical contact when it comes to HIM. That whole organization, minus several of the players who spoke out LOUDLY against fatso-in-chief and who didn't go to putin's white house to kiss his fat ASS can go take a flying leap.

I thought the Oakland Raiders organization was bad back in the days of stickum and when Dave Casper did this:

That "niche" these Brady-lead Pats has carved out where they are allowed to play by different rules is political and blatant.

[roscoeroscoe]

35. Right

What is this 'holding' that is called on other teams?

[Scurrilous]

33. @#$% Tom Brady.

[gainesvillenole]

36. Cheaters

The New England Patriots are proven and admitted cheaters....😡

[mythology]

40. He's an immoral scumbag

He not only helped sell snake oil that he claimed cured concussions, he also defended selling snake oil that claimed to cure cancer, Parkinson's disease, MS and AIDS. Because selling millions of dollars of that crap means more in Tom Brady's mind than killing people by preventing them from getting real medicine. Tom Brady shouldn't be playing football, he should be in jail.

That's above the fact that he cheats, his head coach cheats and his offensive coordinator cheats.

Would I want Tom Brady on my team? Hell no. But I have actual moral standards that get in the way of "winning" at all costs. Brady is as much of a fraud as Lance Armstrong and Rosie Ruiz.

[milestogo]

42. + 1,000,000,000,000

[milestogo]

41. Disregard his politics and he's still a total asshole.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

43. Nah. Im being totally honest when I say I like what Ive got.

Joe Flacco isn’t quite at Brady’s level but he did win us one Super Bowl, multiple playoff games and has only one losing season in his entire career.

For all I know he could have voted for Trump too but gladly hadn’t flaunted it.

And unlike Tom Brady, he’s not a smug douchebag whose face you want to punch, even if he is a great quarterback.

And the Mile High Miracle in the playoff game against Denver still is the single greatest sports moment I’ve ever watched live.

So no, I wouldn’t trade Joe Flacco for Tom Brady. Go ahead and mock me but that’s my honest opinion.

Now, Aaron Rogers on the other hand...

[Vinca]

44. Can I hate him because I think he's a jerk?

FYI, I also hate football so I should probably stay off this thread. LOL.

[bigtree]

45. I don't want that pos on my team

[LuckyCharms]

47. Tom who?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

48. I don't know what the point of this thread was except to create discord in our community.

[Blue_Adept]

49. it's because we had a couple of threads celebrating their win today

and the bulk of members posting in it where basically acting like conservatives in trashing the players across the board and fans of the team, which comes from heavily blue states that voted overwhelmingly for Hillary. Basically, when you're told that you're just as bad as a trump voter because you're a fan of the team, it'll cause a reaction.

Which brings us back to the heavy tribalism of the days and the binary nature of everything; it's either good or it's bad. No nuance, no grey.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

51. I was an outspoken Patriots hater last year.

But that was before so many of them including Brady skipped the White House meeting.

[Blue_Adept]

52. It's one thing to diss players and the team, I've got no bones with that

But when it devolves to all the fans being aligned as trump supporters because they support the team it just shows how far off the rails its getting for Democrats as well. There's a lot of hate going all around these days and it's going to eat us up just like it ate up conservatives for many years to where they are now.

[MrsCoffee]

55. It shows no such thing about the Democrats.

It just shows that votes have consequences.

However, announcing you don’t give 2 fucks about those votes just might show something else.

[Blue_Adept]

57. Please do tell me what it might show

[MrsCoffee]

60. Privilege.

[Blue_Adept]

61. You shouldn't use a word like that just as a buzzword

Take the opportunity, say what you really mean.

[MrsCoffee]

62. Privilege is a thing.

It's not a buzzword.

Do not attempt to fill in blanks where there are none.

[Blue_Adept]

63. Well, other than saying the word privilege, you haven't really explained yourself

So I have no idea what you're talking about at this point.

[mreilly]

53. Yes, exactly...

... there are some very holier-than-thou killjoys present in any given forum like this, I guess. Football is football and politics is politics. I keep them separate. I live in New England and we are Patriots fans.

It's one thing for angry football fans of other teams to complain and gripe about Brady and the Patriots because they're simply jealous of their success - the more they go on about "Cheatriots" and deflating the ball and blah blah blah the more the sour grapes is evident.

It's absurd, however, for people to loathe and root against the Patriots because Kraft/Brady voted for Trump. One of my close friends is a Trump support and he came to my house to help me fix my generator a couple of weeks ago. I guess based on their mindset I should not only have refused his help but ended our friendship over politics. Not gonna happen.

To the haters from either camp I will simply say this: "You weren't present in Superbowl 51 when I woke my little 9 year old boy up to see the Patriots score one of the most surprising Superbowl wins in history. You can call Brady a 'smug douchebag' or Kraft a 'Trump fan' all you like, but you didn't see the look on my son's face when his favorite team won that game. That was one of my most favorite moments as a Dad; sharing that with him."

[TheBlackAdder]

56. Trump voter? That partially explains the Pats need to cheat in order to win.

[uponit7771]

58. Must be nice to feel safe and not threatened on the day of Trump

[Bradshaw3]

64. Just what we need, another na na na na thread

We had these yesterday too. My team won, my team won, so what if my QB and owner voted for dump, so what if they cheat. We won. Na na na na. I'm starting to think Pats fans are worse than Cubs or Red Sox fans.

[beachbum bob]

65. I hate the Patriots period, if brady supported trump, I hate them even more

I hope Philly stomps their cheating asses

[Tipperary]

66. Hilarious.

Football trumps all, eh?

[Blue_Adept]

68. More that politics doesn't trump everything else

Because otherwise, people would have to give up just about everything entertainment-wise with how those "at the top" control a lot of it.

[NCTraveler]

67. I absolutely love solid sports banter.

Love it.

[muriel_volestrangler]

69. Locking - sports banter belongs in the Sports or Football groups

not in GD. Please repost in one of those. Thanks.
