I think there should be a penalty for a QB feigning a hit, like when they fall over after barely being touched.

Not that Brady is the only one who does it.

How is that? Please provide facts to back up that claim.

No, I won't admit it. I have never seen Brady take a dive. After the hit by Ngata he had to readjust his helmet. Brady is as tough a QB as there is. The media blitz against him os so strong you even have Patriot fans questioning it.

I don't know if Mort said it as his opinion BUT i know that Bill Polian mentioned to Mort that the compeition committee may look into a penalty in the off-season for players who "lobey" like Brady did.

Think Mort was reporting what his buddy Polian told him.

That's about the dumbest thing I've read all week, and I read the Merrimen vs Wilfork thread

another reason I don't watch espn anymore..
just wish I didn't hear about it at all.. ignorance is bliss for me

I think whenever ESPN approaches Brady for an interview, he treat them like BB treated Tom Jackson. With a big F..U.!

Maybe I missed it but i don't think so. Mort even went as far as trying to humiliate Brady by mocking him and in a demanding tone told Brady to leave the officiating to to refs. F him

A b igger favor than that.

In 2001 BB conbvinced the team that no one respected them, that it was them against the world. He continued this theme in 2003 and 2004, and the Pats felt disrespected by the media even though they were favorites.

Pats got lots of respect in 2005 and 2006. In 2007 was spygate and it was us against the world.

Now BB will have a staffer compile a video of every QB in the league, one after another, imitating a ref throwing a flag during a game, followed by the Mortenson comment, and act like the referees are doing it.

Once again, the team bonds together because all they have is themselves, the whole world is against them.

BB must be so grateful to Mort.
