I can't quantify necessarily that "it affects his game," but I can say definitively the thread doesn't mention football in the title, so those complaining that there are non-football comments involved are a little off-base. Maybe an "OT" at the beginning would help clear this up.
As to the whole issue with "cheap shots," etc. ... eh, I disagree, with two very high profile public figures. You have a little fun, you move on. Obviously there will be more "giggling and shrieking" in the real media than you'll ever see here. If TB ever does Saturday Night Live again, they'll probably work it into a sketch.
But never mind, and mea culpa. May the holy Brady-Moynahan union (or disunion as the case may be,) and its blessed issue, be forever saved from the callous remarks of bulletin-boarders like myself, and may they furthermore never read the tabloids or see the news programs, which will recycle this tidbit endlessly.
