He's a likable guy, acts mature, is great at what he does, is a winner, etc. It's puzzling why there's a base of sports fans that seem to label him as a douche, as extremely overrated, etc.

Eta: I bring this up bc I encountered people at a SB party who couldn't stand him, and I just found it really puzzling.

I like him, first of all.

But his interview where he cried about being a 6th round pick was just ridiculous.

people get fed up with and hate winners...sad but true



never underestimate jealousy. People hate him for having it all because either they're not happy or because they are jealous.

I think people are just jealous. Tom Brady is possibly the greatest QB of all-time, and he is also an extremely attractive man. Killer combination.

With a super model wife.

He's just too good, and the jealousy breeds contempt.

My wife hates him because he ditched Bridget Moynihan 8 months preggo. Don't know if that's how it actually went down, but if so, seems reasonable

Not everyone who "hates" him are jealous.

They may love Rogers and hate Brady, love Beckham and hate C. Ronaldo, love Brad Pitt and hate Rob Lowe.

It's an oversimplification to say it's jealousy.

Completely ignorant statement. Both parties had no idea she was pregnant, and even she has said multiple times he's been a hell of a dad and makes sure he's in that child's life.

Labeling him a douche and overrated have literally nothing to do with each other. Who thinks he's a douche? He seems like an awesome guy. And he's really good at football. But I think he's overrated. Doesn't make me a hater.

Do you have the drive to be great? I'll admit, when I was applying for jobs and not even receiving rejection letters, I got so mad/frustrated, that I cried multiple times. It drives me, I wake up every single fricking day to excel and show people that they fricked up by not even picking a form rejection letter.

I still get mad and insanely emotional ever single fricking time I remember it, I can completely understand it.

There is a difference between calling someone a douche and implying (while saying he didn't even bother to do basic research) that Brady is a deadbeat dad.

I said the same thing when people implied Dungy working so much led to his kid's suicide.

I make an arse of myself(I guess) starting threads about him. Absolutely none of it has to do with jealousy. That's just a lazy arse accusation that people throw around to sound like they're cool and above other people.
