Tom Brady is GQ’s Man of the Year

In a GQ profile of the quarterback, Klosterman – a decorated writer – was hell-bent on getting Brady to break down and confess to … something regarding DeflateGate.

GQ Tom Brady talks Donald Trump, but doesn’t want to touch Deflategate, in GQ.

But Brady tells GQ… even the most successful politicians are never really accepted as TOTAL WINNERS… and that bothers him, since he’s a guy who lives and dies by a scoreboard. So I really don’t have much to say, because it’s – there’s still an appeal going on.

Five rings? Or invisible Mondo Burger? It seems that Brady really didn’t care about that, and that Klosterman wasn’t bluffing.

“I try to have fun with certain things, you know, but a few things a lot of times get taken out of context”.

Dan is on Twitter. There’s a tangible score.

Klosterman, realizing he was getting nowhere, played the “If you don’t talk about this with me, I’ll write negatively about you…” card.

‘I think in politics, half the people are gonna like you and half the people are not gonna like you, no matter what you do or what you say…. Brady dismisses any chance of him running for political office, and in a video featured on the magazine’s website he explains how he keeps his body in prime condition week to week. At the end of every week, you know how you did. The four-time Super Bowl champ could run the New England states from his living room if he wanted to, while still being vilified elsewhere for maybe being “generally aware” of deflated footballs that one time. You know how well you prepared.

Here’s the cover featuring Brady.

When asked about the controversial candidate taking on the presidency, the quarterback shrugged it off joking, “I hope so”. If there were, everyone would choose the right answers.

There’s one element of the Wells Report that I find fascinating: The report concludes that you had a “general awareness” of the footballs being deflated.
