Both are irrational viewpoints that we as sports fanatics are guilty of. I don't know how you're splitting the hair to think one is more justified or normal than the other. Sorry, should have made it clear. I find the level and intensity of vitriol to be very weird. 1
atlbillsfan1975 Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 I can’t wait to watch the Edelman documentary on his rehab and comeback! He already produced one documentary on himself! Sandy Lyle has nothing on Julian Edelman.

Some of the claims he makes about his products are straight up irresponsible at best, dangerous at worst. - He once modeled Uggs. - He maintained a side business arrangement with Bob Kraft which still looks like a blatant skirting of the NFL salary cap and major competitive advantage. - He handled his deflate gate scandal with all the transparency and humility that we would expect from a Patriot and then had the audacity to complain about his punishment. In summary, has been an entitled, petulant, douchebag through the entirety of his career and no one is required to kiss his ass just because of his on-field accomplishments.

The NFL has not been in Brady's corner. 10 probably because he's wondering why the hell he'd be implicated in equipment sabotage, which isn't under his jurisdiction. Not sure if you remember, but he was being threatened with a suspension over it. Brady doesn't really seem any more of a douche than your average NFL player. But whatever, I will recede into the bushes and let you guys throw tantrums over things like Brady wearing the wrong shoes or eating a weird dressing on his salad. 1 1

His company doesn't sell it, and he never sold it. It's not a great look but I honestly don't care. Anyone who believes a sports drink can cure concussions is an idiot anyway. I don't have a problem with capitalism, I don't care if Brady has the audacity to make more money. Basically, your list was "he was too good and I need justification to hate him."

You don't need to imagine this... You live it I love the Bills. I'm just capable of more than the caveman thought process of "UGGG MY TEAM GOOD THAT TEAM BAD!! HIS LEG HURT, GOOD!!!" I like watching good football. The Patriots created one of the greatest dynasties in NFL history and I'm capable of looking beyond divisional rivalry bias to appreciate that. I love dynasties in all sports, even when they are teams I dislike. The late 90s Yankees, potentially the current LA Dodgers, the mini dynasty of the Chicago Blackhawks, the mid 90s Colorado Avalanche, etc. But you know, Brady modeled Uggs one time!!! Lol!!! 1
