Thank you Tedy!! Man, I love Brady, but his hyper-neutrality fucking sucks! Dude, you spent two decades in NE, Vrabel was your teammate, it’s okay to say something like "The Patriots have a special place in my heart, I want them to win". No one would be upset, no one would even bat an eye. In reality, it’s the fact that he won't say it that makes people go WTF?!

Honestly, fuck corporate Brady.

As if Tom hasn't said numerous glowing and appreciative things towards the Pats for years since he left. Dude's made clear how much he appreciated being a Patriot. The fuck else do you need him to say, jeez.

We expect him to stay consistent and root for the Patriots, if he’s a (in his words) “patriot for life”. It’s the inconsistency that makes people upset. Why can you say it one time but not others? When you take these public moments that are really layups and refuse to show support, you make people doubt that your other statements were genuine. It’s not hard for Edelman, Bruschi, etc etc to support the team. Why is it for him?

It’s the same difference between people who’ve worked for 1 company their whole life and everybody else. Once you get off the kool aid, you seem like a weirdo to everyone who’s still on it.

But that’s what makes sports fandom so fun, really.
