Weighing in on the Boot

Are any of you taking the Tom Brady foot thing seriously?

If you are, don't.

First of all, Brady will play in the Super Bowl. Second, if he doesn't, Matt Cassell will give them just as good of a shot at winning as Brady.

If there is in fact an issue with Brady's health, I would be very concerned if I was an executive in Foxboro. Why? Well, my franchise quarterback hasn't been hit all year and he finds a way to sprain his ankle? What is this guy doing with his life?

If I'm not mistaken, Belicheck has a degree in psychology. He plays mind games better than anyone else and if this Brady thing was pre-meditated, Belicheck had good reason for it. In his sick and twisted mind.

What's sad is that in the past 2 months, there's been more about star quarterbacks in US Weekly than in Sports Illustrated. If I wanted to know what's going on with Tom Brady's health, I could turn on E! and find out a lot faster than by hitting up ESPN. I mean, I know that I knock ESPN for their ability to become more E! like i suppose, but this is getting out of hand.

Case and point; I don't care about Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson collectively, much less them as individuals. I do care a lot about Gisele as an individual, but I could care less about whatever she's doing with the most overrated athlete in the history of sports. This is getting out of hand. Why can't we just go back to the days of athletes just dating the cheerleaders or something? Why do these guys have to be celebrities as well? At least Tony Parker keeps things as under wraps as possible.

Get over it. Nothing is wrong with Tom Brady. He doesn't get hit. He stands in his pocket and waits for one of his 14 receivers to get open. If he is, maybe we should void his milk add.
