Brady is the goat but FU

[Grogan14]

There. I said it.
Just needed to get that off my chest.
Thank you Edelman and Bruschi for your loyalty

 

[TheRainMaker]

He's got a conflict of interest right now. He can't root for anybody.

 

[RxJock1120]

Seriously, the guy has a statue in our stadium, but has no dog in this fight (Super Bowl LX)...

Opinions and desires are not confined by a conflict of interest, no one is asking him to have a financial interest in the game

He already had drama over Raiduuuurs ownership during the season lol
Yall too sensitive seriously

 

[Free_Pacman]

He’s a football commentator, not Walter Cronkite.

How hard would it be for him to say, “Of course, I’m rooting for the franchise I was with for 20 years, Robert Kraft, and my teammate who helped us win three Super Bowls.”

Geesh how soon you turn

Team that just put a statue up of him 6 months ago
Owner he played 20 seasons for
OC that he went to 4 SBs with (5 SBs if you count 2004 when Josh was QB coach)
HC that was his teammate for 8 seasons that he went to 4 SBs (won 3) with and threw TDs to in SBs

But yes no dog in the fight.

I get if the game was on FOX and he was calling it but game isn't on FOX. The Raiders owner thing, don't even wanna hear that. That's a fanbase that feels like he single handily screwed them out of a SB and they are fine with him being an owner, I really don't think they'd give a **** if he said it would be nice to see Vrabel & McDaniels win a SB together or something like "I hope they win maybe 7 SBs will be enough for them to finally put Kraft in the HOF"

Got Peyton Manning reaching out to Maye but Brady can't even say something like "I think it's obvious who I want to see win". Even Joe Montana did a better job of fence sitting the 2 times 49ers played the Chiefs (2 teams he played for) when he said "I hope the team in red wins"

 

[Hugepatsfan]

Much ado about nothing.

I guess it wouldn't have been that hard to just say something like "I try to stay neutral as a broadcaster and involved with another team so I'm too objective and competitive to "root" for anyone but I'll always have love for Patriots fans an a lot of people in that organization especially Vrabes and RKK so I definitely won't be upset if they're happy on Sunday. But ultimately I want good football and whatever happens, happens."

As a partial owner, it would be highly unprofessional for Brady to publicly take sides in the Super Bowl.

He's literally about to hire the Seahawks coordinator as the HC of the team he is a part owner of and is getting almost all the credit for that hire. Kubiak was considered one of the gem cycles of this hire and Brady wooing him is being reported as the reason he is going to the Raiders.

People need to get over the fact that he has business interests and also doesn't owe the franchise anything. The franchise owes him.

 

[lancerman]

As a partial owner, it would be highly unprofessional for Brady to publicly take sides in the Super Bowl.

Not to mention he's literally hiring the Seahawks coordinator as his coach. He's not going to say he wants his new hire to lose.

 

[NFL Mystique]

If he openly cheers for the Patriots, he is:

1. Upsetting the Raiders
2. Possibly upsetting Kubiak (his next hc)

Raiders shouldn't care if he said he was rooting for a team he played 20 years with which has a HC that was a teammate for 8 years.

If Kubiak got upset because of Tom Brady saying he'd like to see a team he played for 20 years win a game, Raiders should probably re-think about wanting him as their HC.

 

[farn]

On the field Brady - like on the field Gronk - I’ve always enjoyed infinitely more than off the field Brady.

 

[RxJock1120]

If he openly cheers for the Patriots, he is:

1. Upsetting the Raiders
2. Possibly upsetting Kubiak (his next hc)

By NOT rooting for the Pats he is upsetting millions of Pats fans that supported him anytime for anything. Even though he does not owe his success on the gridiron to the fans, he sure as he'll owes his notoriety to us.

 

[Dr Pain]

I have said it before but Brady looks like Bruce Jenner about 6 months before his announcement. Glad he took that Saudi money to help them right at the time the 911 trial got greenlighted and the Saudis needed a distraction. A man has to eat and look out for himself.

 

[Boomer B]

Not a great look, but Brady is now corporate. We’ll never get his true feelings. If he cheers too loudly for the Patriots, then he potentially pisses off the Raiders fan base and team. I imagine his texts/conversations with Kraft/Vrabel/ others is different than what he says publicly.

 

[Huckleberry1]

Seriously, the guy has a statue in our stadium, but has no dog in this fight (Super Bowl LX)...

He's part owner of the Raiders and a TV analyst, he really can't publically root for the Patriots.

 

[Betterthanmost]

No need to insult that guy, he has always been like this, never able to be his authentic self always.
