Brady >>> Peyton.
I've always wondered what Brady would look like with Peyton's weapons. Now that I know, he is easily as impressive...

^^^ they had a big story on that last year, hes more of an "average guy" than Brady, appeals more to the average consumer
^^ how does ANYONE hate Peyton? He never does anything wrong, very humble, etc. hes the fucking Tom Hanks of the NFL. Only people I could see hating him are they ones that just love to hate the "good guy" no matter what.

I'd rather root for the guy that knocks up actresses and bangs supermodels on the side...
but hey, if the average joe likes a guy that talks like a bumpkin, then so be it..
^^ I like the guys everyone else hates... Who is the only Yankee I tolerate? A-Rod. Bush is probably my favorite NFL player. I like Brady even though I'm a Jets fan. Etc, etc...

^^ exactly, Mannings weapons have been with Manning, would Harrison and Wayne have been good if they went somewhere else out of college? probably, but this good? maybe not.
whereas Brady got a bunch of all-pros or potential all-pros who were already proven and had performed at other places
and I've always wondered what Manning would look like with Belichick's defense.

fuck espn and their over-coverage of the same 6 teams all the damn time. i could give a shit about the yanksox, the mets, the cardinals, the patriots, the cowboys, and fucking Notre Dame.
i watch Comcast Sportsnet more often these days... so, for my area, it's Clinton Portis, Ray Lewis, Miguel Tejada, and Ryan Zimmerman.
although i also agree about Tim Tebow. Fuck that douchebag. Who gives a shit if a dude was home-schooled. 10/15/2007 1:43:14 AM |

I watched the Saints-Seahawks game in a loud bar last night, so the closed caption was on.
EVERY TIME Reggie Bush got the ball, the caption had an exclamation point. I can only imagine it was like that Falcons-Panthers game in '03 when Vick returned from his leg injury... 10/15/2007 11:38:29 AM |

Yeah but John Madden sounds excited even when he sees a Hot Dog in the crowd.
** That Vick Sunday Night game on ESPN a while ago was the birth of the "Vick is God" thread on TWW. Now THAT was over the top... and hilarious.

Seems to me like the thread is missing the point. The best players in sports(brady, peyton, jordan, lebron) are going to get all the media attention, it isn't really ass kissing when you're the best, or get commercials. I'd expect the media to pay these players a lot of attention.
I'd think it is more players that aren't really that good but get a lot of media coverage when they really suck ass. Or guys that keep fucking up, but the media treats them like they never do wrong.
Andy Roddick is someone who comes to mind, dude sucks hasn't won anything in a while and is always loved by the media. Jason Sehorn when he played falls into this catagory of an ass-kissed athlete by the media. 10/15/2007 12:05:52 PM |
