The Handshake

[lurker1965]

If I missed a thread on this, my apologies and mods please merge.

Did it look to you like Goodell was trying to pull Brady into a bro-hug but Brady stood firm?

 

[Clonamery]

Goodell thinking: "$30 million, smile & shake his hand, $30 million, smile & shake his hand, $30 million, smile & shake his hand, $30 million, smile..."

That was so awkward why the F wouldn't goodell let go.

 

[farn]

He can burn. He is not the champ of anything. Brady is the winner. Take your dirty money and to go hell, RG.

if you look at picture, you can see outside of Goodell hand...seems like he is holding real tight

I think it was Brady who wouldn't let go. Goodell was turning away as if the handshake was done, and Brady held on to him a moment longer to say something.

I would pay real money to know what was said.

I don't think so man....It looked like Brady wanted nothing to do with him.

Sure looks to me like Roger went in for the handshake, Brady took his hand, then Roger pulls away as if the handshake is over and Brady doesn't let go so he can get an extra word in.

I'm sure this has been talked about but I was curious about the conversation that BB and Goodell were having when Kraft was speaking on the stage after having the trophy presented to him.

The camera clearly caught the 2 speaking for about 15 seconds.

I hate to say this, but it looked pretty chummy to me.

Haha omg so awkward. F*ck goodell. I love that he's trying to pull away so hard. Loser.

That's useful I think you are right. Would be cool to hear what was said.

"Congratulations, Tom"

"You see what I just did to the Falcons. You're next."

Meh I just think Tom is overall the bigger man and better human being. As much as we would like Tom to punch him and call him a f*cker - Tom won't do that.

 

[BobDigital]

I was hoping for a Negan moment from Brady when Goodell brings him his MVP award and he throw it off the stage and is all like "bring me my ax! (mvp award in this case)"

Followed by a Negan moment of Brady showing Goodell why he was drafted in the MLB

Looks to me like Brady might've gave him and extra firm grip as Goodell tried to pull away lmao

Hate to agree but I do agree with your observation. I have not read or seen one media comment about this. Not that they would have received much of an answer, but Bill was pretty chatty during the Monday morning awards and would have thought Reiss might ask him about it.

Where's Larry Bird when you need him?

It doesn't look like anything to me

I have a feeling what Brady said to Goodell was something like this:

Tom handled this whole situation with class, grace and dignity.

I have no doubt LB would have taken a different path.

LB would have publicly called out Goody , verbally shredded him and most likely would have had Jan Volk message to Roger to stay away from Larry as he just might punch him during the trophy preso. He might have sent McHale or DJ today.
