I have always like the guy mainly because of where he came from and defied the odds. Watching an interview on him and the reported asked what motivates him after being MVP, SB MVP twice and winning 4 SB. Brady told her that being drafted in the 6th rd still bothers him and he has something to prove.

Impossible to dislike? Quite the opposite. Can't imagine how anybody likes the guy.
works hard, grinds it out week after week for 20 years, wins games, collects championships, has taken less so the team can be more time and time again, never quits, is still driven today as he was two decades ago, spends time and money helping others, provides a positive role model, is a family man ... yeesh whats to like about that ...

there is an element of truth in that statement.

but, as i have gotten older, i tend to see things differently than i did when i was in my 20's and 30's ... i think though, the only way i would have truly hated him is if he played for the clots or the rlkags

edit: and the jesticles

Cheats.
Cynically shills junk-science based TB12 products.
Established a charity but gives nothing to it. Serves as the face of a MA charitable program because they put tons of money into his charity. Again, cynical.

To that I say, educate yourself.

Because most of that is just haternation crap.

Cheats? Never happened.
TB12? Not gonna argue about that ... I too think his partner there, Alex Guerrero, is a snake oil sales man
Charity work? Completely above board and transparent. The "tons" of money Best Buddies sends his way? A pittance towards the dump trucks of cash he generates for them. But above all - it is a common occurrence, and it was all done in a transparent manner ... and you want to use it to sling mud his way ... sorry, ain't buying that one bit

I have. I dare say much more than you ever have regarding these bogus allegations.
lol okay. Deflated footballs and cameras are all bogus. The fines and suspensions for cheating were I guess a figment of my imaginations.
