Ok, so what was the excuse with bird?
Bird was better than you, and he didn't mind telling you that he knew he was better than you. A lot of people get upset at that sort of approach.

I think you look at the other team's guy and you complain about this or that character trait. You forget that if you, as a guy on the street, were ever to meet any of your "heroes" - say in a bar somewhere - you'd be one of a zillion crazed fanboys trying to meet the hero. You always hear these stories about running into this or that superstar at the Kentucky Derby or an obscure 7-11 or watching another sport. Truth is, even if they came off as nice, their world is not your world.
Any of them can affect a certain noblesse oblige, like Eminem saying "I'm happy for every fan that I get" before launching into how he can't take a sh*t without someone taking a picture of it.
But do any of them really want to get together at the local bar with you and your buddies? Come on. They want to tap often very hot wives/girlfriends, go golfing at the best clubs, with only their peers (either from sports or from the upper class of American society,) etc.
We're necessary nebbishes to these guys. If I thought about this "who seems like they're humble" thing too long I'd stop watching completely, because person-for-person, they more than likely consider all of us borderline pathetic but necessary.
there are a plethora of reasons to like Tom
the first thing that drew me to him many years ago was how attractive he is
and he has aged very well over the year
Well, to follow up on your above point, you could communicate better. For example, when you use a singular noun such as "plethora", you could correctly pair it with a singular verb, such as "is", rather than the incorrect plural verb "are" which you employed. Arguably a minor point, but, sadly, it was a minor point which you cited.violence is never the answer
we just need to learn to communicate better
cant be afraid to talk about our feelings
im hurting a little bit right now
do people here really hate me?....or do i just annoy them?.....or is it something else?

Honestly, at the risk of seeming immodest, it isn't a particulary daunting task.we cant all be as smart as you
you love getting the best of me, don't you?
you are good at it......gotta give you credit
I'd bet the trifecta if I were you....

Humility! It amazes me when I hear people claim that Brady is ****y and full of himself. Couldn't be farther from the truth. I've never seen a player who praises other teams more and puts fault on himself more then Brady.
I just watched the 2nd half of the superbowl for probably the 50th time. Tom Brady get handed the Lombardi trophy and gets asked a question by Dan Patrick about being down 10 in the 4th qtr. And his first response is to take fault in his own play. "Its not how we drew it up and throwing a couple of picks didn't help"
The whole team was locked in, Offense, Defense wasn't giving up much either (well except for the potential heart-breaker play) until that last drive. The refs could have been a bigger factor too, but they let them play.I too play SB Win over again and I luv starting it 4th Qtr at 12:40 mark when I need a quickie fix. Just check out how cool, precise Brady is with comeback from 10 pt deficit. Surgical!
