The Brady Rule Part Deux

[McBoller]

FOund this while searching for something else on google, pretty funny if you ask me.

As if Tom Brady wasnt already enough of a household name, pretty soon he's gonna be a universal mean name to call someone. i.e. Little kid gets accidentally bumped into at the bus stop and threatens to call the cops. "stop being such a Tom Brady" someone yells out!

We have heard of the "Peeping Tom" but with the emotional pansiness Tom Brady displays, I will start calling people a "Weeping Tom".

that was great. Thanks for the link.

You have perfect timing. I am using this in an arguement with Patriots fans. Not as fact (even though it is nearly believeable) but as ...smack, I guess. lol Thanks!

[LilyRaven]

Bahahahahahahaha! Priceless.

Was that a serious article? "we are out to protect star quarterbacks" What the <[i]heck[/i]> is that. Please someone tell me this is a joke. What a terrible thing to read before bed.

Oh, that was great! Thanks for sharing. And I really, really, REALLY hope the saying "Stop being such a Tom Brady" makes our daily lexicon and that Brady HATES it for the insult that it is.

I think that site is a parody site.

Or maybe just a very clever site, check out this article. Some pretty funny stuff.

I'm going to have to add this site to my favorites, now.

Sports Pickle is a sports satire site created by that guy DJ Gallo who also writes a lot on Page 2, which is the satirical section of ESPN.com. He's funny sometimes.

at "Emotionally rouging the passer". One of the things that stick out to me was when he was hit (as ALL Qbs do) he started waving and complaining to the refs for a flag - he got, shook and pumped his fist.

Reminded me of when I, or when so many of us, were kids and we'd tell on our siblings.

What a Cry-Brady...

Yeah, but my parents ignored us and made us work it out ourselves.

Hmmmmm, guess we know what Brady's parents did...

"Leave little Tommy alone, he's delicate!"

I like how Mike Pereira explained it on NFLTA last night. "Have you ever watched Jay Cutler or phillip Rivers play? All QBs ask for calls."

excuse me! i never saw flacco asking for any calls.

I had to send this to everyone.

Yea, great examples! Cutler and Rivers are both drama queens too.

[macbrak]

I rolled over in my sleep last night and roughed the passer...

Exactly. I think under crybaby in the dictionary is a pic of Cutler, not exactly the best example for quarterbacks. Though in Rivers' defense he does work for Norv. I'm waiting for Turner to actually burst into tears one day.

As much as I hate to say this, Big Ben doesn't throw temper tantrums either.

He doesn't wanna get the brady skirt dirty... nor does he want to be flagged for unnecessary roughness... for emotional distress...


on another note, I was reading some football talk on my phone, and they were talking about the Overtime rule... pretty much saying how they didn't like it due to it usually being one sided... than listed other ways to start it off that would be "more fair"... they also mentioned how now that this rule has negatively effected the patriots... it will get changed


the things I thought of when I read this
1) how do you get more fair than 50-50?
2) yay... we get to see new OT rules next year
