I had the pleasure of being a kid at the Orr Walton Hockey camp. Orr was the same humble first class gentleman that we all know. (He was all of about 23) Exactly the same guy, always. There was no front, no acting this way or that, it is simply who he is.
I have come to appreciate and rank Brady with Orr in this regard. Beyond the probable best that has ever been heroics in battle, I have listened to the man, read the books, followed very closely, enough to believe he is the real deal. There are no "slips" because he simply is who he is. thousands of public appearances. Not one "slip". Because that is who he is.
Well,there was that one dig after a Ravens game, I seem to remember....

Been very blessed to have those two play for "my" teams. Thanks.
It is inspiring and uplifting to see Mr Kraft going to the wall for him.
Based on what Mr Kraft knows about the man, he has stepped into a role he never wanted, always avoided.
All based on Tom's word. Based on the word of the same man i have come to know, vicariously.
This reaffirms my experience, confirms what I have come to believe.
There has been much chatter about this, as we all felt the same way, wanted to see this.
We are frustrated to see the man we know treated so shabbily.
So mark this for me as a high point, old fashioned honor and loyalty between two gentleman.
One's word, enough for the other.
That is enough for me, too. Stand and fight against the bullies, the lies.
I love this team. Thanks Mr Kraft.
Quite the epic off season, eh?
