Brady has done a great job of managing his "brand." It's not surprising that he has high negatives because he has left so many teams and fans disappointed in their SB quests. Suggests that he is positioning himself for a long endorsement career after he retires.

i dunno about that. I thought brady is highly selective when choosing endorsements? I would not do that tbh

NASCAR driver is an athlete? That leaves the door open for anything. May as well throw Bieber and Bill Gates in that list....

If we ignore the whole "Nascar is barely a sport" aspect, it is pretty difficult to argue against a guy who has won the last five championships in anything.

 

[Fencer]

LOL at Brady having an unusually high "dislike" score -- and it only being 11%.

That's a strange list with 2 Nascar drivers in the top 3 and Shaq checking in at number 4. Plus, Brady's dislikeability is almost as high as Lebron's. How is that possible?
