If you get pissed off at someone on the field, you're an a-hole:

"I thought Tom Brady was totally classless with Anthony Smith. Smith shouldn't have made a guarantee, he's an idiot, but you won the game, you proved your point. Why are you in his face now? That's ridiculous. Tom Brady, every week, he's going down in my estimation as a classy guy... totally classless."- Bill Plaschke

If you get pissed off at someone on the field and you're not a member of the Patriots, you are forgiven:

"I'm going to give LT a pass on this. Emotion runs high on the sidelines and guys get in fights all the time. You've got to give the guy credit for just acting on his emotions... that happens... he's a human being." -Plaschke, two minutes later

Have somehing to say to Bill?

one thing which he will never understand is celebrities are just like everybody else. They **** , eat, talk, drink, ****, and curse like you and me.

he can act nice before you. Behind the door, he can be ahole if you piss him off.

there is really no point.

He's a turd from way back...Gww did he give a pass to Smith on his stupid pregame continuation of running his mouth?? (Especially after the league has really put a real damper on a lot of pregame situations..) Hmmm Brady is like most people..he can only take so much..

 

[Drewwho]

He's right in a way...Brady is not human, right???

He's right in a way...Brady is not human, right???

if you mean a 'perfect' human.

Why would someone care about the general perception of Brady? People think he is classless? Whoopy-dee-doo, good for them! All I care about is that he is the best Quarterback of all time and that he has led my team to great victories and will give us the best chance to win for years to come.

If he's classy or not, whatever, man. This adjective is starting to make me sick, actually.

 

[Scooter_McGruder]

Is the LT incident to which he is referring the one where he got in an argument with Rivers? So it's OK to talk sh*t to your own teammates but not a guy on another team who disrespected you?

Idiot.

 

[Lampshade]

I make it a point to email him politely pointing out every piece of hypocrisy he comes out with. Never get a reply.

#1, that guy is a tool. He is always making stupid points on ESPN. He is part of the reason I have boycotted that POS network for the last month. #2, talking trash was, is, and always will be part of the game. If you want to run your mouth, fine. Just back it up. Brady was letting Smith know that he was not backing up his talk and that he was going to make him eat his words. What is wrong with that? I loved it! That's why until Tom Brady came along Larry Bird was always my favorite athlete. I love guys that talk the talk and walk the walk. Jordan was the same way. Tom Brady is a man's man.

Conveniently forgotten is the fact that Smith was taunting and screaming at Brady before the game started. So, yeah, Brady had every right to give his 2 cents to Smith after he burned him on a pass during the game.

Going just by the writer's quote (similar to how he judges Brady on what was shown on TV), he suggest that Brady slammed Smith after winning the game. What a slander! Pure BS...

He should watch Brady's interview after the game when Brady refused to disclose what he said to Smith on the field. That, my friends, is class, something that the media idiots know nothing about.

Thanks for giving his email. I plan to email him right away.

you mean Little Lord Fauntleroy Jordan?

 

[Drewwho]

In all seriousness, Brady might be the classiest athlete I can think of since maybe Bobby Orr.

 

[patsfan_1281]

lol he just totally contradicted himself..what a tool
Smith was also taunting Brady during the warmups..Brady isnt gonna sit there and take that from a jag..i love the fire he plays with

Is Bill this much of an idiot. If I remember right Tommy got in his face in the first quarter. The game was from won at that point.

 

[richpats]

Flip the script - if a Pats DB made a guarantee and the opposing QB got in his face, that QB would be praised to no end for standing up to the "evil" Patriots. Forget about Plaschke - he's a sports writer in LA, that tarnishes credibility anyway. His nearby team is SD so of course he'll let LT off the hook and bash Brady.

Just remember, these guys aren't paid for their opinions, they're paid to get people interested in hearing their opinions. That's why guys like Peter King still have a job.

Damn. Jonida is hot.

Idiot.

I think that quote was from when the angry little midget RB pretended he wanted to fight people after the Patriots bounced his team of juicers and whiners. You know, when he did the whole, "Hold me back," routine.

 

[Kdo5]

I remember thinking what a big ******* contradiction when he said the stuff about Brady and LT on PTI.

Thank you. I give writers a wide berth. They are under deadline, have to maintain readership/ratings/etc.

This guy is such a child, though. He regards the world in a way small children do. I get the impression he means it. It's not an act with him. He is genuinely out-matched by reality and is incapable of reconciling with it. He should have been a kindergarten teacher.

 

[LloydBraun]

This "journalist" is just looking for the attention he will get from a shocking type of statement.

No big deal, really... who cares what this clown thinks?!
