Everybody love Tom Brady, and why not? Tommy Uggs is wholesome, handsome and his looks are the American Dream. Brady isn’t perfect though, he’s not even close.
Richard Sherman sounds hell-bent on proving that Brady is not the clean cut guy you believe him to be.
Sherman said Brady started the trash talking in the 2012 regular-season game in which Sherman walked up to Brady after Seattle’s 24-23 victory and asked, “You mad, bro?”
“He was pretty much saying that we were nobodies,” Sherman said Wednesday about Brady. “And we should come up to him after they got the win. He said stuff like that throughout the game. So we should just take that pretty well? Sure, can I get your autograph, too?”
Sherman hinted several times on Wednesday, that perception isn’t reality when it comes to Brady’s image.
“I think people somehow get a skewed view of Tom Brady,” Sherman said. “That he’s just a clean-cut guy that does everything right and never says a bad word to anyone. We know him to be otherwise.
“In that moment of him being himself, he said some things and we returned the favor. Unfortunately, he apparently didn’t remember what he said. I’m sure also in those moments when he’s yelling at the ref, he’s just saying, ‘Good job. You’re doing a fantastic job. Keep it up.’ ”
Sherman was asked if he thinks Brady will throw the ball in his direction in the Super Bowl.
