Default Brady called Hasselback about Branch

...to tell him that he got a gem of a receiver. I heard this on Patriots today this morning. Zolack said not to make to much of it. But man, for some reason it really pissed me off. We have 4 new WRs on this team who need his undivided attention and he felt compelled to call a QB on another team to talk about a WR who no longer plays here.

It's probably not a big deal, but it really bothered me for some reason and for the life of me I can't figure out why.

that bothered me too. He was just being the nice class guy but it was too much.

It resembles the boyfriend who is kinda nuts and just can't stop bothering his ex-girlfriend.

So he shouldn't make personal calls on his own free time? It's not a big deal at all.

hmm doesnt bother me. Seems like a stand up thing to do even though Banch is an ass. I doubt calling Matt and speaking for a few minutes in any way interferes with his relationship with other WR's.

I hope Branch doesnt have a monster day today so we can all hear about how big a mistake we made by letting Branch go.

It bugged me too.

I don't know how good it is for the confidence of the other wide receivers that Brady is still so hung up on this guy.

I don't want a life damaging injury (like paralysis) but anything short of that, say torn ligaments, would definitely make me happy.

SNAP THE TWIG.

This is bothering me too guys. I've been really disapointed in Brady this year from a leadership standpoint.
There are so many stories coming out about how angry Tom is from the Branch ordeal. But what bothers me is that Brady did not try to squelch it immediately (at least publicly). His body language on the field has been terrible also.

I don't mind the missed throws and lack of chemistry with the WRs. I can understand that. I can't understand the immature pouting especially when we are 2-0.
