It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I thought it interesting that he allows himself to get really upset in the car, but once he gets out, it’s back to the team-first, one-day-at-a-time positive focus. Anyone else think that maybe those rumors about Brady being upset with Belichick might have been overheard during his “car moments?”
I still can’t get over B.B. going for it on 4th down and 13 from the NYG 31.
This times a hundred.I think it was about 30 seconds...3 time-outs...and they had to go like 40 yards for a thing 54yd FG.

I’m sorry, apparently I wasn’t being clear. I wasn’t saying that the camera guy was one of the sources of the article. What I meant was that I suspect is that there are people in Tom’s entourage who have been with him during the times he allows himself to ***** (car time) who have then been sources that say Tom wants the Player of the Week prize or who is pissed about whatever. But that is only how Tom feels for a short window of time, when he’s frustrated, but when he gets out of car time, he gets his mind back in the team-first mentality.Then the leak was the documentary guy or McDaniels? Not likely. Also any issue would be Belichick being over-ridden by Kraft, why would Brady be upset , that makes no sense. Far more likely that Wankershaft wrote a lying BS article like he wrote the prior similar locker room dissent article about the Seahawks
This times a hundred.
No idea why then didn’t work the middle of the field and try and get into field goal range. With no time outs, I’d totally get the home run balls, but my goodness man, you have three. Just go for the tie.
And that 4th and 13 is one of the most undertold stories of that game. No clue what Bill was thinking there. In a slugfest game like that, you take all the easy points you can get. At best, you’re up a touchdown. At the very worst, the Giants would’ve gotten the ball at the very same spot you gave them the ball back anyway by failing to convert a low percentage down. Total head scratcher.
well I know what my next purchase isThe painting in one of the rooms seem to be a Picasso, Figure composée II 1949. The other one looks like a Miró, but I'm not sure which.
If I recall, the few articles that actually delved deeper than “oh look, upset! 18-1!!!” Basically boiled the decision down to the “hubris of Belichick.”
Of course, he never did or will break down his thought process at the time. I can’t believe 10 years and 2 (maybe 3) more Super Bowls haven’t healed the hurt. Wasn’t that game also February 4, 2008?

Hmm. The hurt has been totally healed for me given the two additional Super Bowls with #6 on the way.If I recall, the few articles that actually delved deeper than “oh look, upset! 18-1!!!” Basically boiled the decision down to the “hubris of Belichick.”

Brady just on WEEI really pissed off ! at Reimer comments about daughter , said so and said maybe we will talk again . Might not be on WEEi again
In the second episode, Brady mentions how great Moss played in that game, yet I thought Moss was pretty much a non factor - in all of the playoffs. Welker played great but that was about it.
NESN article on it:Brady just on WEEI really pissed off ! at Reimer comments about daughter , said so and said maybe we will talk again . Might not be on WEEi again
“Well, I think that — I’ve tried to come on this show for many years and have showed you guys a lot of respect,” Brady said. “I’ve always tried to come on and do a good job for you guys, so it’s very disappointing when you hear that, certainly. But my daughter or any child, they certainly don’t deserve that.” Co-host Kirk Minihane apologized to Brady and said he understood the QB’s disappointment. Here was Brady’s response: “I’ll obviously evaluate whether I want to come on this show again, so I really don’t have much to say this morning. So, maybe I’ll speak with you guys some other time.” Brady then ended the interview.
