I hope the OP doesn't get offended because this is not meant to be that. I just don't care what anyone has to say anymore. We bash these guys one week and then celebrate them when they say something good about Brady. It's comical and the nature of fans, I know. But the debate was over to me like five years ago, and it's not because that's when I realized Brady was better. It's because that's just when I made up in my mind to stop fighting against the people picking Manning because I realized why they were doing it and that it had nothing to do with merit. It's stats and fancy theatrics at the line. It had everyone fooled. If I'm being honest, it actually upsets me that a lot of these guys are saying Brady now. They're only saying it now because Manning looks the way Manning looks, so they CAN'T deny it. If Manning was still playing at a high level but Tom was still winning SB's, I'm sure they'd still be saying Manning. Some of you may disagree with that, and I'd understand why. But I just feel that way about it.
I literally said at work last Wednesday to a Niner's guy, and I told him he can have Joe and those who want Manning can have him too and Marino and Elway, et al. I'm going Brady 11 times out of 10. I don't give a sh*t anymore what anyone else thinks on the matter. It is Brady and, frankly, it always was.
