All along I thought it was determination. Turns out it's just plain ol' stubborness.

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady talks up his Irish roots as the NFL hits London | Irish Sport | IrishCentral

“My father is 100 percent Irish. We took a trip over there together and visited some of the places where my family came from,” says Brady. “That was a great experience for me and obviously I am very proud of my Irish roots.”

Hell yeah- 100% Irish on my dad's side, 50% on my mom's. Figure that's pretty common with fans of Boston team...

My mother's side is Irish, via Oz. My father's side is German. Irish/German... means we like to wear uniforms and drink heavily. :singing:

Works for me, anyway.....

From the link to County Cavan...

# The Brady clan
August 02, 09

The Brady family name derives from the Gaelic McBradaigh, which was originally anglicized as McBrady, but the Mc is very seldom used in modern times. The vast majority of this power clan of Breffny, now the County of Cavan, come from Ulster. A smaller group of Bradys (formally O'Brady) come from County Clare.

Very true, the origin of Brady is McBrady. That smaller group from county Clare are really O'Grady's who got the name mixed up.

That's what I read anyway. So if you're watching the game at a Beef O'Brady's, your not in the Place of Tom's kin, but of some mixed up O'Gradys.

Ah, shut up with your racist stereotypes.

The Irish aren't a race... although, if they were, they'd be the gold standard..

There's only one race: human. Everything else is an artificial construct designed to cause friction, turn one group against another, and help true racists and self-appointed elites take and hold power.

English/Irish on my Mum's side.

Ireland isn't a part of the UK though lol (although it may have been when Brady's Dad was born).

Polish? I thought you were Jewish?

Anyway, I'm suprised that Brady has been able to succeed in the league given his Irish roots. I would think that Whiskey would be made available at all team events outside of the games.

It's not a stereotype, it's a fact. We drink a ton.

It is a racist stereotype. It's no more a fact than blacks shoot heroin a ton or Italians are criminals a ton.

Wow. Your life must suck being that easily offended. It's basic thought like this that has made America completely ****ified.

I think you need to look up the word "race".

What's so offensive about the fact that we drink a ton? I don't get it- I'm hammered right now, so what?

Well first it depends what you're drinking and second it depends on what kind of plane you're flying.

Gee, I suck. Intelligent thought at its highest. If my post was so emotionally upsetting for you to read, buzz off. No one asked you to read it.
