It’s impossible to watch Tom Brady‘s tequila-induced Lombardi Trophy throw without feeling that same visceral unease triggered by peering over the ledge of a tall building. The pit in the stomach gets even larger when considering a couple of basic realities.
First, that was the real trophy, not some replica or replacement given to players for partying purposes. Second, as Simms (who lived in Tampa) pointed out on Thursday’s PFT Live, the water in that area of the Hillsborough River is 80 feet deep.
Great post, LibertyWoman!
My sentiments Ed Zachary
I think Brady has proven he knows how to throw . . .
We have plenty of Greek-American sponge divers in Tarpon Springs just north of Tampa and there’s no shortage of retired SEALS around.
It’s a freakin’ trophy - who would have a serious life-changing episode if it had went down in 80 feet of water - where it could be rather easily retrieved from these days?
Watching the a stupid trophy throw is nothing like looking down from a tall building. There is no visceral unease just some idiot trying to get someone to read his overdramatized blog.
Aaron Hernandez multiple murders, Darrell Russell assault and rape, Leonard Little drunk driving killed a mom and two kids in the crash, Ray Rice assault, Jim Dunaway murder, Jovan Belcher murder…missed prison by killing himself, OJ Simpson double murder, Ray Lewis murder…
Know the two things these men have in common? They all played pro sports, for them NFL football, and they never served a second in jail.
The list is a lot longer and a lot of sports. Some of these people committed murder, and people want to get on Brady for this? If you want Brady to act right, clean up the thugs first. Brady didn’t harm a soul.

80 ft is a easy dive, no worries.
The libs hate it because it was a bunch of happy drunk maskless white guys on expensive boats in Florida having a blast.
EXACTLY!
This is just a bunch of twaddle. They (the white guys0won the super bowl and the person of color didn’t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The press has been going stupid nuts over Brady doing something , anything please, wrong.
Not sure about that 80 foot depth number. On the gulf side, we have to go out at least 10 miles to get 40 feet of depth for scuba diving.
Even when he completes a pass with a trophy, they bitch about him!
Exactly!
Thank you Ed Zachary ;)
They’ve had a LOT of practice including lots of sb trophies. I don’t see the problem.
As is Byron Leftwich.
Right, He did it. So there!
