Tom Brady wasn't around to hear President Barack Obama's deflate-gate joke during the New England Patriots' visit to the White House.

The customary trip to the White House for the NFL champions came on Thursday. Brady, the future Hall-of-Fame quarterback, didn't go because of what was described as a "prior family commitment," according to CSNNE.

It was a little unusual that the team's best player wasn't there. Obama did mention Brady, calling him "an all-time great who couldn't be with us here today" and praising how well he played in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl. Brady did go to the White House the first three times he was part of a Super Bowl championship team. All three of those times George W. Bush, a Republican, was the president. CSNNE pointed out that Brady was also a guest at Bush's 2004 State of the Union address.

Obama is by far one of the most divisive and poor performing Presidents in our history. Some people probably don't want to associate with his narcissist arse.

Overall he's not an idiot but not visiting the White House IMO is an idiotic decision

He's just butthurt because of Ogump's position on gay marriage (prior to his "evolution" in 2012).
