Not very adult behavior when you think about what all they went through to get to that point but in the end it's just a piece of metal. Kareem Abdul Jabbar donated his championship rings so a symbol of all that hard work is just a symbol. The adults(owners) will have something to say. More importantly they'll do it.

I figure he could probably make the throw.

People are trying to tear Brady down because he is a winner, he is happy, he is a white male, and was partying without a mask. Total nonsense manufactured drama.

From video images, Brady appears to have been drunk at the celebration. He was the man most responsible for that trophy so I guess he had a right to risk it, but I doubt the Glasers would have appreciated having to get a diver to go fetch it from the bottom of the harbor.

Plenty of scuba divers for hire in Florida if the trophy got wet.

“More importantly they’ll do it.”

Do What? When? How? Where? Whom?

The men endure a lot of mental stress and risk damage to their bodies in pursuit of a team goal.

They are celebrating a victory.
I give them a lot of latitude.

FWIW, the winners of a team sport championship took their trophy to a strip club and celebrated into the wee hours of the morning.

If it was Maholmes / Kelce, I would be concerned. But Brady / Gronk, no concerns at all!!!

This is the best. The Red Sox WS trophy being damaged by some beer can throwing “fan”.

Bob Uecker knows just how much a trophy is worth. He has bought several of them.

Oh come on. It’s not like it’s a unique trophy, they make one every year, and could easily make another, or send divers down. The Stanley Cup has been through worse, and there’s only 1 of those.

He wasn’t tossing it to a Chief’s receiver.

Not much worse than watching a grown man being drunk in public, especially a celebrity like Tom Brady - but he proved himself to be a fool when he ditched his pregnant girlfriend Bridget Moynahan for Gisele Bündchen.

Sick and tired of every single thing a person does being put under a microscope. Who cares? Don't these people (writers/commentators) have lives? Is there anything, besides being negative, that makes them happy or joyful? I look at those clips of Brady and they make me laugh and feel happy for all of them.

Reminds me of when our ST. Louis Blues won the Stanley Cup 3 years ago. I don't normally follow hockey but followed them briefly and when they won it was sheer joy. And the parade that followed was jam packed full of fans in downtown St. Louis. The players got out and walked along the fans and let them actually briefly hold/touch the trophy and it was a true celebration.

sick.of.the.left destroying everything with their snide, sniveling comments, remarks, actions etc. They've sucked the joy out of America. bastards.

People get trophies for bowling that mean as much to them as a super bowl trophy yet their trophies end up in landfills and nobody cries really. F the super bowl, F the NFL, F football in general. If I had that trophy the only value would be to sell it to some idiot who would pay lots of money so they could point at it in front of their friends and say how special they are. I would say F football fans but people can like what they like and I won’t judge.

This better not become a new thing to do; players better not start tossing the trophy around - nfl, nba, mlb, nhl, et al. Eventually , there will be a day when this will happen, the player will drop the trophy,or the tosser will toss the trophy badly, and it will crash to the floor, smash in a thousand pieces, or as someone here said, at the bottom of a river. If that happens, the players responsible better pay out of their millionaire wallets for a new one!!!!
Of course we know, that if a black athlete makes this mistake, and is forced to pay for a new one, black racist groups and their White / Jewish virtue signallers, will scream racism.

“The pit in the stomach”

One of my pet peeves: Millenials and younger saying, “I have a pit in my stomach” - it’s actually “a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach”. Unless, I guess, he swallowed a peach whole...
