Brady Sr. touches on his son's foot injury

This from the guy who said that Brady would have no trouble with his injury in the Super Bowl...

Tom didn't have the trouble, the offensive line and secondary did.

Im from Mass. 16 and oh no happens...when your division is shall we say WEAK.Dont get your hopes up pats fans belive me! I knew it was comin. fade away like they all do fade away......booo hooo no more super bowls.never won anyof em convincingly either.

The go ahead score late in the 4th qtr is a problem?

VFP, you're a tool. Jealous, perhaps, that the Pats are the team of the decade?
Boo hoo, hide behind a pathetic alias on a newspaper forum and spout BS.

I feel that when the patriots started the infamous "HUMBLE PIE" program the team did not play aggressively.That was a bad decision.Please don't let it happen again.Don't succumb to the people who do not like dynasties!!

Do we know which *&^%'n lineman stepped on Brady's foot?

vfp007 is an idiot.

The patriots goofed last year with the silly "HUMBLE PIE" routine.The team did not play as aggressively in last half of the season.In sports you beat opponents to the ultimate.

vfp007 u don't sound like a true New England Fan. Who cares what the score is when u win the superbowl, no one else does. The AFC isn't the only weak division in the league guy, besides even if u do make the playoffs u still have to face the top teams that made it. When your team wins three superbowls in a 7 year period how can a fan expect or ask for more. I don't know about u but I think the team looks pretty good compared to the rest of the league and I'm certain most teams would concur. With the success and all the records that they have broken recently, I'm completely happy with the PAT'S organization.

Like Tom Brady Jr. is not going to tell his dad if he has a broken foot.....why do we have to play all these games with these people. What do they think that we are all stupid?????

I have to say maybe we Patriot fans have gotten too greedy. The Pats have won 3 Superbowls, played in four and been to five AFC championship games THIS decade. I don't know about you but that is pretty amazing to me. Last year on that day we got beat by a better team, as they say any given Sunday, and as the Pats say that was then this is now. I have high hopes for this season, I will be watching every game with the expatiation of that Pats winning but I also remember that there are 32 other teams out there and their fans have the same expiations as we do. So sit back enjoy the season and cheer like made for your PATS

wait umm da if you win by 1 or 500 does that mean you stil win? if you are in the final two games of 6out of the last 8 years does that mean your a good team? pats could easily have 5 superbowls in that time and could win a couple more fore we are done!!!!!!
your from ass not from mass

vfp007, You know, it's never too late to go back to school and learn how to read and write. Good luck.

Rich,
You are a real clASS act. Keep the informative posts coming!

The league is set up for teams to win in cycles. The Pats have played winning football for 7 seasons now. The odds are against them, not this year automatically but as time goes on. The other teams cycle up with better talent. I enjoy seeing what the coaches and personnel director can achieve with what they have to work with. I have confidence that Pat's coaching and management will field the best team they can with what is available to them. Let us see what their skill can achieve. That is the challenge of the pro- game of football for the fan.

cab that is true but every team in the league retools everyyear with new talent...it is driven by quarterbacks...and ours is still the best in the nfl and will be for several more years..we just got younger on defense in two out of three areas ther may be some grwing pains there but should come around as year goes on...teams in the division got better for sure but I think the jets messed up with fav-ra well see...i predict the dolphins will beat them... last year was scary easy and then boom we lose the suberbowl...but realistically that was like a destiny game for the giants 5 seperate miracles took place for them to win and they did but we easily could have...that why why you win some you lose some but we are always in the hunt..

since bill and brady took over

when does this stop being news and start becoming gossip?

Next year all teams will follow suit and sit their starters in the preseason. These top dollar player are to valuable to get hurt before the season starts. The preseason is a joke.

hey vfp007, were you born a putz, or is it something you just work hard at??

I can't believe this: Brady Sr. said he saw his son last night and that he is “in fine shape” and “this is nothing that is going to impact him at all.”

Don't you think if he was surfing the net and saw all the press about a broken foot that the stupid Brady Sr. would ask his son if that was true - is your foot broken?

What do they talk about when they get together? The obscene new photos of Gislut are out on the net?

Doesn't Mr. Almost a Priest Brady know that it's wrong to lie. What parent wouldn't ask his son about his injury. This is beyond ridiculous. What's wrong with the press - aren't they allowed to at least ask a normal question or are they all censored by the Patriots and Tom Brady's agent.

Why do we pay the big bucks to see a game where everyone will tell us nothing and lie to us?????

Tell you what I'm going to do guys: I don't have a life and the little bit I do I spend hating things. So I'm going to find a team I hate and write something pseudo-witty but filled with, you know, hate so everyone can know the sports team I dislike is much inferior to the one the fans support. That'll give me an extra 2 inches and I'll get the satisfaction I'm a superior person.

vfp007 may have typed that he was from Mass. but I believe he intended to say that he was from "ass".

vfp007....how many Super Bowls has your team won?? How many Super Bowl or Season MVP trophies does your team have?? Yeah, I thought so.

Just my uninformed opinion, but I think the whole injury thing was cooked up by the Pats (read BB) to keep Brady on the sidelines during the pre-season and not have to listen to all of the soreheads who would have been screaming that they paid to see the games and Brady didn't play.

The Pats have been successful with many of different rosters and a core that has been busted up plenty over that period. But the common denominator throughout has been Brady. While the preseason is just that, ever since "the cast", the Pats have looked like crap, with and without him(TB).

The KC game will answer most of the existing questions and put a finer tip on the never ending critique of this great NFL dynasty.

vfp007 can only aspire to idiot status...

I think the Pats should sign Pedroia as backup QB. That everyone will say he can't do it will ensure that he can.

bosoxj from cali, via Waterville Maine; I'm not sure what john is thinking but sitting back on your laurels and not worrying about winning is fine for PAL coaches...but when it comes to playing with big boys... 2nd sucks. Not only consider the fact that whenever you step on the field you want to win, but consider the fact that the NFL is a billion dollar industry. The difference bettween winning and losing in pro football is a matter of dollars. I more than anyone hate to admit that pro sports is about money, but sometimes you have to admit it. So yeah, root for the Pats, bleed for the Pats, scream at the TV for the Pats, (go to a game if you can afford to) but accept nothing but a Commitment to Excellence. Sorry, I had to thrown that in for Messalonskee High School football!

I am out in Arizona and even one of the local stations out here played a bit from WEEI about this supposed broken bone in the foot. all day long i was looking on espn, boston.com and yahoo and didn't see anything until now about this. I'm pretty sure that as long as Brady is under center and the line holds, the Team and the Nation will be fine.

vip007 - my man, maybe the most important thing great teams have in common is not winning championships by large margins. It means nothing at all. The first thing teams do to become great is win the close games. it's easy to win by a lot, and what happens when you forget how to win the close ones. As a matter of fact, I would take any of the three SB championships teams over last years team even if they had won the championship. They really struggled the whole last part of the season, because they forgot or were not capable of being physical. I knew after the first couple of games they were going to struggle down the stretch and they did getting out played by the Ravens and Eagles of all teams. With the past 3 SB teams I never had a doubt because we controlled the game and had much better
clutch players thou less talented than last years team. Teams that have the players like Montana, Brady, Bill Russell, Mariano Rivera, and the like are the ones who always step up when the games are on the line. They are always the all time greas where it counts. Good Luck!

I told you the other day, Tom hurt his foot in Costa Rica when he was surfing. True.

I appreciate all the passion about a foot, but come people, we've all been here long enough to know when Bill & Co. are manipulating the system. As far as the last game, it will only serve to motivate BB to out wit the league yet again. (see holding qb out of preseason). I have come to believe what we all have been saying for a few years now, " IN BILL WE TRUST." I may think I know a bit about football, but it pales drasticlly compared to what Bill has forgotten. So sit back, crack open a cold one and enjoy the games. GO PATS!

No doubt this season will be fun. A lot of this stuff about Tom and injuries etc... just adds to the fun and goes to show you the NFL is the best run league that people get this into it. I second what #33 says.

Brady will be fine, he's just trying to get some media attention. Nothing wrong with his foot, stop playing mind games. I think the Pats will demolish everybody in the regular season, and choke it up in the first wrong of the playoffs. Haha!!
