Seems dickish to me. Edit to add: I retract that after seeing video. Who knew he had a sense of humor?!

Tom Brady to Biden: '40 percent of people still don't think we won'
By Morgan Chalfant - 07/20/21 12:22 PM EDT


NFL quarterback Tom Brady joked alongside President Biden at a White House ceremony Tuesday that 40 percent of the country doesn’t believe the Tampa Bay Buccaneers won the Super Bowl, alluding to the considerable percentage of Republicans who polls show do not accept Biden’s election victory.

“Not a lot of people, you know, think that we could have won,” Brady joked. “And in fact I think about 40 percent of people still don’t think we won.”

“I understand that,” Biden responded, laughing.


Brady also quipped that people have started calling him “Sleepy Tom,” a reference to former President Trump’s nickname for Biden during the campaign.

A Monmouth University poll released in March found that about two-thirds of Republicans do not believe Biden legitimately won the election after Trump repeatedly cast doubt on the results and claimed falsely that there was widespread fraud in the vote.

who has been a Brady hater from way back because of the "tuck rule" game that knocked my Raiders out of the playoffs and started the Patriots dynasty.

And btw, it was a fumble but the league always found a way to screw the Raiders back then because of the Pete Rozelle/Al Davis feud. The refs had to study the rule book 20 minutes to find an obscure clause they could use to justify their bogus ruling. That ruling had never been called before and I don't believe it has been since.

But that's water under the bridge. I'm liking this Tampa Bay Brady and how he's enjoying his best life away from Belichick and the Pats.

So, that makes him exactly like every other friend of Trump.

Trump has no friends, only frenemies.
