Poor Tom Brady

I got a real kick out of seeing photos of Tom Brady walking with that soft walking cast on his foot yesterday, with that cheap-looking bouquet of flowers for his famous, fabulously wealthy girlfriend.
Anyway, it reminded me of something the Patriots and their nutty coach Bill Belichick do.
I don’t recall the exact details off the top of my head, but Belichick got wrist-slapped by the NFL for falsifying one of those mandated injury reports a couple of years ago. He left off somebody who was injured.
So ever since then, every single week, Brady has been listed as: Tom Brady (Right shoulder) Probable.
Keep an eye on it this week. It will be in the injury report. Maybe Belichick will list his bad foot, too.
Meanwhile, Brady on one foot (and one shoulder) has to be better than Philip Rivers on one leg. What the heck were Rivers and Norv Turner thinking about? The guy couldn’t play the position like that, and San Diego went down without a touchdown because of it, when a touchdown and another quarterback might have been able to take advantage of the vulnerable Pats.

Carp,
You have been at your literary best lately. I am in awe of what Big Blue has done. I had them at 8-8 this year. I am so glad I was wrong. Something tells me the Giants are going to win. They got the mojo going on right now. Thay have just as many playmakers as tyhe Pats do, I think there defense is better then the Pats. I will all come down to heart and soul and who wants it more. If there is any justice in sports, the Giants beat the big bad lets run up the score Pats and Belichek can then stuff it. Plus that creep Randy Moss does not deserve a ring.
Thanks 1st.
Whether he deserves it or not, if the Giants can’t stop him, they can’t win. But I think they might be able to get to Brady to hurry him. The Giants have an awful lot going for them, but just because of that, and because the Pats haven’t been invincible-looking lately, let’s not forget that New England is one of the best teams ever.
I also had the Giants in the 8-8 range, and even when it looked as if they would get nine or 10 wins, I thought they weren’t nearly as good as their record. The last two weeks, they are better than a 10-6 team, no doubt about it.
I am a Patriots fan from Sao Paulo, Brazil.
I really liked your blog with the Patriots mentioned item. I grew up watching Steve Grogan and Stanley Morgan.
I try to follow as much NFL news as I can with the internet.
