Good deal. Brady was a very poor sport. Maybe it is time for him to retire.

As much as he gets paid that's like $5 parking ticket. Wonder how he'd like it if someone got away with what he did if someone kicks him in the future for some payback.

He makes $10,000 waiting for the Star Spangled Banner to be sung.

Pollard and Lewis should get at least $25,000 fines and suspended from playing in the Super Bowl. Very nasty players. Helmet to Helmet all the time. Pollard needs to be banned from football.

Hopefully we can all agree that it takes more effort to stop ones self from a helmet collision at top speed than it would to not raise your leg to kick someone as you are already going down. Brady is a punk!

5:21 you need to be banned from the Internet. All Pollard's hits were legal. You're allowed to go helmet on the runner

For those of you that have never played the game, Those hits were textbook legal. Brady's punk-a** move was a cheap shot at best. He is a player that wants a different set of rules for himself. I would have made it a game priority to put him on his a**.
