According to Terezowens.com, the seven-time Super Bowl champion appeared this week on the “Complex Sports Podcast” and said he doesn’t understand why New York Giants fans hate him. “How could you hate me when you’re a Giants fan? You should love me! That was the only team I never beat. The frickin’ Giants. ... I got to figure out how to beat the Giants someday, we have to have some kind of rematch in Tampa in a championship game.” Brady has a point. The Giants beat him and the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII to ruin their run at a perfect 19-0 season. Four years later, the Giants upset the Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI. Heck, the only reason Eli Manning is a borderline candidate for the Pro Football Hall of Fame is his two Super Bowl MVP awards, both of which came at Brady’s expense. In fact, during the NFL’s Draft-a-thon last week for the 2021 NFL Draft, Brady was asked if he would trade two of his record seven titles for that perfect season in 2007. “I would, 100%” was his answer |
Don't hate him though.
Hate? No, but that quote turned me off
My wife, a casual football fan and pseudo Giants fan, hates him.
I ask her why and she reverts back to Giselle in the elevator being pissed about the Pats loss in the SB 46 saying "my husband can't throw AND catch the ball, the other players have to do something".....I think Giselle was referring to Edlemens miss that went through his hands near the end of the game.
She also refers to the SB 42 quote by TB "we're only gonna score 17 points?....welllllll, OK"
Neither of these things bother me
Tom is without a doubt the GOAT, and was the GOAT well before that last SB win.
Of course it'd be different if XLII & XLVI had gone the other way...
I think most Giants fans with a brain happen to like Brady very much. It's the baffoons that rooted for the Eagles in the Superbowl because they were "sick of the Pats" that are generally a peculiar, yet relatively small, group.
But yeah, as Giants fans we've got no reason to hate on him.
I do carry a grudge against Landon Collins for dropping the easiest interception of his career in what would have ruined their 10-0 start in 2015, though.
Boston vs NYC thing?
Just general Patriots hate/hating the person on top?
I don't know, I don't get it though. We own him and he's the best ever. I fucking love that.

But I dont hate Tom Brady.
(I hate Aaron Rodgers)
Hell I dont even hate Dak, i hate the Cowboys, I hate Zeke Elliot, I hate Demarcus Lawrence. But I dont hate Dak
F Brady.
AGREED....who could do such a thing........????!?!!??!!?
What's not to love?
I honestly could not agree more with this statement.
But I dont hate Tom Brady.

Right there with ya. Rodgers is another level of douche...Dak is a likable player, but obligatory F the Cowboys.
I usually root for the Patriots in the Super Bowl. I hate a lot of NFC teams for obvious reasons. And I root for Belichick. He helped the Giants win 2 SBs as DC.
And for the most decorated player in the history of the sport, he is tremendously humble.
Seriously though, I think as he's aged, Brady has either become more likable, I think. He's not on the Patriots anymore, and the fact that he was able to win one without BB in New England, just adds to his legacy and respect I have for him, even though that Tampa team arguably had/has more talent than any of the other Super Bowl winning teams Brady had in New England.
I also looked at Brady in a little bit of a different light for the way he handled the dude who stole his jersey from his locker room at the Super Bowl that he won I believe against Atlanta. He could've been a real jerk to that guy and he just forgave him.
Brady is my age and I go up stairs with pain in my knees, this man is still playing pro football at a high level. Just have to respect what he's done, the dedication he gives to the game and how hard he trains, works, everything he's put into it.
He's an unbelievable person.
Brady handled the loss graciously.
He’s also always been respectful to Eli and the Giants for beating them in the SB twice
as some here have already said, I think Brady is a little douchey personally but I never disliked him as a football players and I never disliked the Pats other than being tired of their constant success year after year.
Yeah I used to hate him. Back when he had those epic games in the AFC Playoffs vs Peyton...I was always rooting for big brother...shit, I was ALWAYS rooting against Brady no matter who was playing them. Until that Eagles-Patriots Super Bowl, of course.
And at least for me, it's much less about his move to Tampa, that might be a small part of it, but it's a lot more about recognizing the commitment he has to the game, and I think he's mellowed a bit, as well. Just that he's still doing it at 43 years old, it's unbelievable. The guy is a year and 25 days younger than me and just won a Super Bowl. My knees hurt, my neck hurts, my back hurts, and I couldn't run around the block a couple of times without needing the rest of the day off my feet.
Have a great day.
But 7 is enough, getting one without Bill was fine but I don't ever want to see win another one lol
How do you know what other people revise?
I met Brady on charity bike ride for pediatric cancer in 2008, such a good dude, very philanthropic, seemed down to earth even then when he'd achieved so much - on field, in life, in wealth.
I interacted with him again the next year at Vince Wilfork's draft day party which was in my town at a local bowling alley/arcade/fun zone - again reinforced my initial impression.
I didn't hate him before then, and I admired him ever since.
Not sure how you know what people are revising historically.
You misspelled Justin Edelman's name. The correct spelling is: W-E-L-K-E-R. ;o)
