It's easy, and only takes a few moments.The vast majority of people who accumulate that much wealth sold their souls to do it. By that point, the only principle they believe in is "MORE!". There are exceptions.What's the Springsteen line, "poor man wanna be rich. Rich man wanna be king. King ain't satisfied til he owns everything.?" At some point in life, there are things more important than money, one of them being principles. As someone noted,once you have FU money, you have even more leverage to stand for your principles even if it costs you money.....
You have to choose sides and even if you're torn, we see which side Kraft has chosen. Yes, he's an owner and Brady is suing him but it is the chumminess with Goodell that is more troubling. There are ways to send signals, non-verbally that you are po'ed at someone and get a message across. Glad handling and hugging sends the opposite signal. I know I'm beating a dead horse here but to not support the guy who is largely responsible ( with BB) for your success over the last 15 years is unacceptable. you remember the people who stood with you in times of need,and those who didn't.
rant over....
Indeed. Hopefully when this is out of the courts Brady will do a big interview (presumably with Jim Gray) and deny the whole thing strongly. He won't be able to write the book with his true feelings about Kraft until he (Brady) has retired.Go on every fan forum of every NFL team. They all hate Brady, he's call a cheater, legacy tainted. I blame Kraft for how much Brady's reputation has suffered
I notice he didn't even specify which "he" he was referring to. Classic 2-faced Kraft.

Robert Kraft on Tom Brady: 'We hope he prevails'
"Look, we've been behind him and he’s…the whole thing has been mishandled in my opinion and its unfortunate and we hope we prevails"
I don't know about anyone else but to me that sounds kinda pathetic. And who is "we"?
If you're not going to do anything about it then please stop talking about it Bob.
