Someone posted this on The Stadium Wall and I just had to share it here. It's hilarious and he hit the nail on the head with this one..... :rofl:
Hey Patriots [team stats] fans - stop whining!
What’s with this bereavement thing, just because Hollywood Tom Brady [stats] got hurt?
The reaction around here to Brady’s mishap has been so over the top, the only thing missing has been the deployment of grief counselors at local sports bars. Have they posted a sign yet on the Sagamore Bridge, saying “Suicide Is Not the Answer - No. 12 Will Be Back in 2009. Order Your DirecTV NFL Total Package Now.”
It’s a good thing Brady wrecked his knee on the field and not in an auto accident somewhere. Can you imagine what the size of that roadside memorial would have been? Every fat loser in New England would be unsteadily rising from the couch in his mom’s basement. It would have been like a funeral procession to the scene of the tragedy, where they would all be draping their XXX-L No. 12 Patriots sweatshirts over the thousands of candles, teddy bears and empty 40-ouncers.
Hey, fans, get over it. You should care as much about Tom Brady as he cares about you, which is to say, not at all.
You know about the thrill of victory, now get used to the agony of defeat.
It’s amazing to see how fast a bandwagon can stop in its tracks.
