Tom Brady's Cast: Who Cares?
Will the NFL MVP miss the Super Bowl? Will the Patriots go from a 14-point favorite to a 14-point underdog? Will the NFL's resident glamour-boy be able to find comfort and solace in the arms of his supermodel girlfriend? Will the earth keep spinning?
Understandably, sports writers and pundits have to find something - anything - to talk about in the two weeks leading up to the Super Bowl, but this "news" got out of hand fast. Especially considering that Brady was spotted hours after the picture was taken wearing black shoes, sans cast, at trendy New York hotspot, Butter.
So that's that. Story's over. Brady had on a protective boot - which can be used for myriad ailments both big and small - and then he took it off. Big deal. Everyone calm down. Your Golden Boy will play in the Super Bowl.
Even if this is somewhat of a legitimate injury, it's not going to affect Brady or the Patriots. Brady is too good to let a minor injury keep him down. In fact, when he was recently asked about the injury during his weekly radio appearance on Boston radio station WEEI, he stated: "There's always bumps and bruises. I'll be ready for the Super Bowl. I'm not worried about that. I'm not missing this one. I'd have to be on a stretcher to miss this one. There will be treatment this week. In games like this, you get a little nicked up. It's nothing serious."
So there you go. He's got a slight foot injury and the boot was a precaution. Besides, with New England's offensive line, Brady could be missing a foot and still be able to throw for 400 yards.
The Super Bowl will go on as planned, Brady will be fine, and all will be right with the world. Now the talking heads can focus on important matters. Like whether or not New York Giants kicker Lawrence Tynes is the second coming of Scott Norwood, if Giants head coach Tom Coughlin has recovered from his nasty frostbite, and if Bundchen brings with her a curse ala Jessica Simpson.

Post a CommentI like the title. Really, who cares? Either he plays or he doesn't; neither can be controlled by spectators or the media so why talk about it for the next two weeks...LOL. Thanks for the chuckle. :)
