It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Are you seriously saying that crying is a knock on Brady and "embarrassing"? Sorry that you Jest fans cannot understand the emotions emitted when recalling experiences having to do with winning meaningful football games. If that's the slight you use as an example of Brady being "less than manly" then you need to put your arm down because you are really reaching here.
Wow. Jesticles fans are talking trash on the greatest QB of all time while they blithely ignore their rat-infested sewage treatment plant of a team. Classic diversionary tactics from a petty bunch of losers.
Dude is metro and very feminine.
My first memory of Irving is at the Orange Bowl vs. 'Canes...lots of special, heroic winning plays on the field for the Pats, and a continued struggle vs. personal demons...Your first memory of Irving Fryer is of him wrecking his new sports car at halftime during a game at Foxboro.
Someone talks about having female sports reporters at the facility, and your first thought is of Zeke Mowatt.
Kudos and Philly has a rich sports/football history which I appreciate...but the "nothing in football" belief belongs only to flying elvis-likers. Besides receiving a lot of love, Kraft would profit financially too if he would restore the Pats' real logo and uniformsWatch it!
I grew up in Philly and am old enough to have seen the last Eagles NFL Championship team play in 1960; three future HOF''ers in Norm VanBrocklin, Chuck Bednarik and Tommy McDonald, who helped hang on the Packers the only Championship Game loss of Vince Lombardi.
The Pats had "nothing in football" from 1960 to 2002.
Eagles' fans don't "hate their team." They're frustrated and very hard, often unfairly so, on their team. Sort of like what you'll see out here when or if the team struggles for a few years or longer after BB and TB leave. (and almost started to see it after the KC loss).
Another possible angle of a grudge Shula might have against BB: Bill and Jimmy Johnson are buddies. If Parcells did not bring BB into NE, Johnson might have brought BB into Miami (history might have been different, but let's not think about that.) Shula never forgave Jimmy for firing his son Mike as an assistant while in Dallas. Then there was the role Jimmy had waiting for Shula to go into forced retirement.
I was expecting to see the flying elvis!!!!!!Caution: Put your food and drink away.
You get visibly nauseous looking at this picture.
Especially this week.
Now scroll down.
Eason was Raymond Berry's Achilles' heel. Anyone with eyes saw that Grogan was the single reason the team was even competitive in '85, and earned the right to start, AND gave the team its best chance to win. SAME for Flutie in '88. Buuuuut...Hey, it wasn't just Berry. Marc Wilson starting over a healthy and active Jim Plunkett in '85? Or Steve Young starting over a healthy and active Joe Montana in the '93 NFCCG? ALL those games were lost before the opening kickoff.I ran into Grogan at the Hilltop Steak House right after he was dropped as the starter for Tony Eason. He wasn't a happy camper that day. When I said hello to him all he could do was grunt.
No, I believe the Lombardi Trophy remains appropriately named. On the other hand, the Lamar Hunt Trophy should be renamed the moment TB retires.You truly believe that they should rename the Lombardi Trophy!

Absolutely.
I give Tommy tons of credit all over the place. But just because he's one of the best ever on the field does not mean he's untouchable off the field. Dude is metro and very feminine. Will I joke about that? Hells yeah! But he's still a sick QB who I'd happily go tight jean shopping with if he was a Jet.
You're obviously this board's contrarian poster man-child for epic fail and petulant jealousy. Douchebag. NEXT!!
You get second-hand embarrassment when no one high fives Brady
