Moral Obligations … Not Always Fun
Athletes and Celebrities, NFL January 3rd. 2008, 11:59am
Looked at this photo for a solid 10 minutes, and there’s really nothing to say about it. Here’s JFK Jr., er, the NFL MVP, walking the streets of New York with Gisele. Is that a chain dangling from his back pocket? Do people still rock that? The whole chain-connected-to-wallet thing is pretty 2002, right?
Yup, see – there’s nothing left to say about Tom Brady. (Our female friend, who one day we hope to get a radio show with, wants us to relay this line: “She’s walking like she just got off the Tom Brady bone train.”)
One possibly talking point – Brady’s not the real MVP, Randy Moss is. Try telling that to USA Today, Scoop! Actually, we think Scoop has a fair point – without Moss, Brady is a very, very good quarterback; with 81, you can mention Brady’s name alongside the all-time greats. If you care to debate that point, please see the career of one Culpepper, Daunte.

We could use the opposite argument, TBL. If Randy Moss is so great, why couldn’t he make Andrew Walter, Aaron Brooks, and Kerry Collins winners?
And what a shock. Scoop Jackson thinks he’s the MVP. Talking point–OVER

In that second season, he was pretty injured all season, i think.

Those chains weren’t cool long before 2002 rolled around. But then, neither was having a handkerchief in your coat pocket, so maybe it’s not retarded, it’s trendsetting.

That chisled chin…that bed head…those crisp white kicks that havent been worn in yet…that “I just put it down grin”. Shes got that look on her face when a guy calls you something in bed that he wouldnt in real life and then post-coital your re-thinking the situation and realizing just what he called you. Price you gotta pay for f’ing one of the greatest QB’s in history.

Oh yeah. And Brady won three rings (almost four) without him. And Daunte Culpepper’s knee exploded.

I think of it this way: Take Moss off the Patriots, and the Pats still are a playoff team. Lose Brady and who knows. Brady can throw it to anyone on that team, he does not need Moss, but having Moss sure was nice for him this season.

Hazean, how’d you get the face there?
January 3rd, 2008 at 12:14 PM
Moss won’t win the MVP because he’s black.

Tom Brady could be strolling down the street with urine-soaked jeans…and the rest of us would be doing the same by the end of the week.

______ won’t ______ because he’s black.
/Every article by Scoop Jackson
January 3rd, 2008 at 12:36 PM
Well, Sanchez, there is also the “___________ won’t ________ because he’s NOT BLACK ENOUGH” article that comes out every now and then.
January 3rd, 2008 at 12:38 PM
“too black,” I guess I should say instead

Can I just punch him in the face?

WHy am I having the Matt Damon/Psychiatrist relationship from the Departed flash through my head? (Post fucking DiCaprio)

If she just got off the Brady bone train, she appears ashamed of it while Brady appears to be the prick asshole.
January 3rd, 2008 at 12:51 PM
She is just trying to figure out why Tom cried out Andrea Kramer’s name during their little romp in the sack a few hours ago.

Didn’t Whitlock write the Moss should be MVP but won’t article like a month ago?
January 3rd, 2008 at 1:26 PM
Isn’t this like saying without Harrison, Manning isn’t as good. Without Rice, Montana and Young aren’t as good. Who else…Aikman/Irvin, Bradshaw/Swann, Stabler/Biletnikoff. All the great QB’s have had at least one great WR. Big fucking deal. Brady won 3 Super Bowls and 2 SB MVP’s while Moss was elsewhere. Moss won jack shit elsewhere. They are great together, but Brady is the MVP.
January 3rd, 2008 at 1:27 PM
Brady has a look that says “She did it” and she has a look that says “My parents would be so ashamed of me!!”
As for MVP…if it’s not Brady, it ought to be Moss. But it’s splitting hairs. As long as it doesn’t go to someone like, say Eli Manning or Todd Collins, I think everyone should just relax.

hazean you the man
January 3rd, 2008 at 1:34 PM
i think it looks like tom just farted and giselle is tucking her nose into her sweater-neck but, hey, it’s open to interpretation i guess
January 3rd, 2008 at 1:37 PM
hazean gets a free post!!!
January 3rd, 2008 at 1:48 PM
Damnit. My stupid avatar isn’t showing. I am an assface. Somebody tell me WTF I’m doing wrong. Feel free to talk to me like the mental midget that I am.
January 3rd, 2008 at 1:48 PM
oh…there it is….nevermind
January 3rd, 2008 at 2:17 PM
So I created a Gravatar, now what? Do I have to do something here?
January 3rd, 2008 at 2:35 PM
hazean deserves to run the site this weekend
January 3rd, 2008 at 2:38 PM
What have I started?!? Haha, good stuff.

There is no question Brady is MVP. No WR has ever won the award, and it doesn’t look like it is going to happen this year.
January 3rd, 2008 at 3:30 PM
So now we are all avatar freaks…any good free sites to pull from?
January 3rd, 2008 at 4:28 PM
Re. tar. ded. How can you honestly compare Culpepper to Brady? I know ESPN gives the dude made face time, but is this just shameless backlash against that? Like its been noted, Brady has three rings while Moss has won jack. Yeah, Brady had his best year with Moss but when did Moss have 23 td catches without Brady?
January 3rd, 2008 at 7:11 PM
I’d say there’s a good case for Moss being MVP because of the overall effect he’s had on the Pats’ offense (Wes Welker should be sending him a case of Cristal each year for the rest of his life for the season he’s having), but in the end the ball doesn’t get to him if Brady isn’t there. Dude has been statistically great with jack at WR for years, won 3 Super Bowls without Moss… yeah, he’s the MVP.
