Did he really just compare Brady to Hernandez?

[Oswlek]

The comparison could've been to any player who has lied to an owner and the point would've been the same.

Sure, but you still need to buttress that comparison with all the things that make this situation different.

 

[TBR]

While he didn't directly compare the two, he indirectly did. Regardless, it's just an ignorant, simple minded comment to make. (yet again by Stephen A Smith) The fact it's come to guys dragging Brady's name into sentences with Hernandez is just sickening.

I didn't mind S.A.S whatsoever about a year ago but I've gotten pretty fed up with his ******** recently. From blindly accusing multiple people of being racists, to his comments brushing off domestic violence, and now some recent takes on Brady & deflategate - he's a certified, professional dumbass.

 

[Wordsmyth]

I completely get his point. He's not comparing him to Hernandez, he's simply stating that a player can lie to the owner. No matter what you think about Smith and regardless of whether Brady is innocent or not has nothing to do with this point. Merely stating that it's not far fetched to think a patriots player could lie to Kraft. Saying that's not a valid point is being blind.

You could argue that Brady is nothing like Hernandez, but that doesn't mean Brady isn't capable of lying to Kraft.

Your thread title is misleading, acting like he's comparing the two human beings instead of pointing out that Brady could be lying. Don't twist his words... The media does that enough already

Interception, you just got pick-sixed. Your analysis (if I can properly call it that) is naively superficial.

Let me guess...
"No way Brady could be lying! He's Brady!
Hernandez lied because he's a terrible human being, but Brady is Brady!"

Support the player, but don't be blind. He could be lying and none of you can say without a doubt that he hasn't lied to Kraft (just like Hernandez lied).

Because we detractors of your simple-minded nonsense are doing the Deion Sanders Jamaica Pepper Seed Dance in the end zone, while you remain on the sidelines, head held in hands, knowing that you've lost the game.

Nice argument from silence. And you call us out for our "logical analysis," after you posit a logical fallacy? LOL!

Aaron Hernandez didn't build a mansion next door to Kraft. Brady isn't going to lie to Kraft over such a minor thing.

You have to ask yourself, if you murdered someone, would you admit it to your boss?

 

[flasox27]

Stephen A is used to hanging out with thugs so it was natural for him to think everybody lies.

You haven't said one thing about the topic or your opinion on it. Instead you are taking personal shots at me and my "nonsense."
Don't talk about my analysis when you didn't even present one and have said nothing but insults.

Blind homer.

Good point. But the point of the article was that it is possible that Brady lied... Which is reasonable to consider. Building a mansion next door to your employer doesn't mean you will never lie to him.

 

[Interception]

Let's make this simple so some of you won't hurt your brain trying to figure out what the meaning behind these comments was.

"It is possible Brady lied to Kraft! Someone has lied to Kraft before."

He is NOT comparing Brady to Hernandez. He is comparing one thing Hernandez did in his life to one thing Brady might have done. It's foolish to think these comments have anything to do with saying Brady is just like a murderer.

 

[Wordsmyth]

Another argument from silence. Keep those logical fallacy straw men coming!

And I needn't. You make my case for me with your insipid drivel. You have no "analysis," just this bend-over-backwards proclivity for being the contrarian here.

Blind? Pot, meet kettle.

 

[Jackson 2]

His point was simple: Brady could be lying.
Is that so far fetched to consider?
Just because you are unable to look at the meaning behind a comment does not make me a troll. There is nothing wrong with considering that Brady could be lying.
It's silly and foolish to think Smith is saying "Brady is just like a murderer!" No. He's saying Brady might've lied, because Kraft has been lied to before. It has nothing to do with murder. The comparison could've been to any player who has lied to an owner and the point would've been the same.

Then explain to me why his comparison was Hernandez rather than some other "player who has lied to an owner?" We both know why and pretending you don't appears both disingenuous and unflattering.

Well, if you asked me how many times I've seen Steven Smith lie, or Brady, it wouldn't be close.

Why would someone in the media compare the top playre in the game to a murderer? Because They are both people and capable of lying?

How about he is a shameless media whore who knows tearing down respected people will get ratings.

Would you compare someone to a rapist because he's a man, therefore he might be a rapist?

Seriously, support the Stephen Smith's of the world somewhere else, if you don't mind.

Yes, because Smith is saying Brady is a murderer. Exactly.

Or maybe it's because Hernandez is the most recent patriot known to lie to Kraft?

We don't both know why. You obviously don't know why.

These comments have NOTHING to do with ANYTHING except for BRADY POSSIBLY LYING TO KRAFT.

The comparison by Smith is ridiculous, involving two completely different people and incidents that couldn't be more disparate in severity.

Nowhere have I read or heard that Kraft believed Hernandez. Besides, would you expect Hernandez to be truthful about his involvement in a murder? Conversely, do you honestly believe Brady lied to Kraft's face about this deflate nonsense?

Pretend I had a cousin who was a rapist. Let's say that before my cousin got arrested he used to bash me for supporting Stephen Smith.
Now if I said "my cousin used to bash me for the same thing all the time," it wouldn't mean i'm saying you're a rapist. It would mean i'm saying that both you and my cousin shared that one individual similarity.

Similarly, Smth is saying it's possible Brady and Hernandez both lied (ABOUT DIFFERENT SITUATIONS).

I disagree with smith all the time, but to think he's calling Brady a murderer here is ridiculous. Absurd.

He's not comparing him to a murderer! He's simply trying to say BRADY MIGHT HAVE LIED.

He's not comparing the people or the incidents... He's merely trying to prove it's possible for a player to lie to an owner. Do you disagree that it is possible for a player to lie to an owner?
