It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Only if they're as dumb as s#!t.Doesn't change the fact that there is now a headline of "Garoppolo was excited when he found out Brady would accept his suspension" out there. People won't bother to go listening to the audio of the interview they'll see that headline and think he was excited at the expense of Brady.
Do I criticize him for feeling excited at the opportunity to start and prove himself? Not at all.
Do I think his choice of words was ideal? No. I'd have suggested "enthusiastic" or "eager to prove myself" over "excited," but he's what, 24 years old? Cut him some slack.
Do I think it's a big deal? No. As someone else pointed out above, if I had to choose between his saying that he's "excited" and saying that he's "scared," I'll take excited any day.
I care about what he does on the field not what he says.
Only if they're as dumb as s#!t.
We all make mistakes, except of course for Roger Goodell....Unfortunately I was one of the dummies. I read the article without listening to the interview.
I find most of the "journalists" who write on CSNNE, Perry among them, to be lazy and generally to do bad reporting. I think they are for the most part sports enthusiasts who know how to spell but who can't get real jobs.The article mischaracterized the interview.
He clearly was genuinely respectful and complimentary of Brady.
They should have asked a follow-up question before writing that crap article.
It's definitely an off season storyBrady would have said the same thing in his position.
More like a "non story."It's definitely an off season story
Agree with his response.
I thought he should have qualified it but I will give him a pass. It was his first real interview and I can't blame him for either being excited or forgetting to call bullsh!t on the Brady suspension, and I have no doubt Brady will give him a pass on it.
