Tom Brady Blasts ESPN

Tom Terrific Is Burning Bridges At A Tremendous Rate
>7 days ago
Remember back in the day when Tom Brady was scheduled to be president in 2028? Then he decided to knock up his girlfriend before ditching her for Gisele. So much for that. Naturally another line of work open to Brady is becoming a talking head for ESPN. Wait, scratch that as well.
Tuesday afternoon Brady appeared on WEEI radio in Boston to talk about an upcoming charity event when he got lobbed a few questions on Spygate. He chose to rip the media, and more specifically, ESPN.
"I think it's a way to really sell newspapers, and all the ESPN stations, they've got to fill the air, too," Brady said.That's not too bad, and probably more or less true, but Brady decided to continue when it was mentioned that many of the ex-NFL players who work at ESPN were harshly critical of the Patriots and suggested that they gained a huge advantage from stealing signals.
"It's just kind of the environment right now, though. I think that's the way that guys make it. They just say the craziest things. That's what ESPN has become. ESPN, to me, is like MTV without the videos, ESPN is without the highlights."Well, I guess there's always Fox Sports or CBS for Tom.
Anyway, I actually thought the arguments put forth by the ex-players were dead on about the advantage the Patriots gained by stealing signals, even though Brady is right to a degree about ESPN in general.
I'm just starting to wonder what the heck is going on with Brady. Last year he gave the famous "We're trying to kill everyone" line, he's on a team that arguably won three dirty Super Bowls, he's insulting former players, and he isn't holding his tongue on ESPN either.
He's pretty much become the Darth Vader of football. Which is exactly why 18-1 will never get old.
