Brady’s “bad” ankle…
January 27th, 2008 by Gonzo
I guess this is what happens when there are two weeks between the championship games and the Superbowl and there’s not a whole bunch else to write about, but, I’ve gotta rant about this:
I’m so sick and tired of hearing about his ankle! This has to be one of the biggest non-stories in the history of sports. He’s gonna play, and he’s gonna be the Tom Brady who was MVP of the regular season (and 2-time MVP of the Superbowl), and not the fluke (sick?) Tom Brady who played against SD.
Can they find something else to write about? Pretty please?

Well… Plaxico Burress made the mistake of publicly voicing confidence in himself and his fellow WRs - and that automatically became a “huge dis” against Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Donte Stallworth, Tom Brady, and…. I guess every Patriot past, present, and future. Is that better?
Of course they’re going to glom onto Brady since (a) he just had the season he had, (b) he’s dating who he’s dating, (c) his coach is about as forthcoming on injuries as the Black Knight in the Holy Grail (”its just a flesh wound!”), so that leaves every (possible) injury open to complete conjecture from a ravenous and oversized media in week one of what is two weeks worth of stories that need to be written.
Try this: Ignore it. Its about the only remedy.

Oh, btw, it finally seems to have died down - but instead of Brady’s ankle, we could’ve been treated to more “Jessica and Tony broke up” stories. Is that what’d you prefer?
