Tom Brady endorses Donald Trump

must have a fucking concussion or maybe he's just fucking stupid.


Washington (CNN)Tom Brady is not only Donald Trump's golfing buddy. The New England Patriot endorsed The Donald for president Wednesday.

When Brady was asked about a "Make American Great Again" hat that was previously spotted in his locker, he said the hat is a "nice keepsake" and that it would be "great" if Trump won the election.

When asked if Trump has a shot at winning the general election, Brady said, "I hope so. That would be great. There'd be a putting green on the White House lawn. I know that."

When asked if he has any advice to Trump before the CNN Republican debate tonight, Brady simply said, "No."

What is it with Boston sports figures and inappropriate candidates?

Curt "Let Me Rob Rhode Island on the Strength of My World Series Pitching Performance" Schilling was GOTVing for Bush in NH in 2004, too.

He musta been beaned by a line drive. Makes no damn sense.

She got bagged going eighty MPH is a fifty-five with her kids in the car on Cape Cod. The cop let her go.

She told her husband to get pre-emptive hair transplants because she didn't like his thinning hair--and the idiot did it.


I tend to not put much stock in the political opinions of sports figures, models or actors. If they were terribly smart, they'd be lawyers or doctors or in other professions that require brains over phsyical attributes.

Who other than a republican can cheat, get caught, destroy evidence and still have millions of idiots cheering for him.

Don't confuse sports fervor with political affiliation. It never ends well.

Sports figures tend to be Republicans for one reason--they are stinking rich and they want to hang on to their money, and the GOP is in favor of rich people keeping their money.

He's perfectly entitled to his opinion and it seems he's happy to keep it his own as well. Which is a good thing. Stick to football questions perhaps? Reporters I'm looking at you.

Shocking.

Perhaps Trump could get the all important Rosie Ruiz endorsement to get the original Boston cheater. I mean, Brady has only been clinging to denying he's a cheat for a few months. Ruiz has been dedicated to doing that for decades. She's won just as many legitimate Boston Marathons as Tom Brady has won legitimate Super Bowls.

Fuck him, fuck the University of Michigan, and fuck the Patriots. Fuck Trump and the entire GOP as well.

I hope Suh rips his leg off and beats him with it.
