Security Guards Claim They Were Fired For Taking Pictures With Tom Brady

Two Reliant Stadium security guards claim they were fired for taking pictures with Tom Brady Sunday when New England played Houston at Reliant Stadium. Joel Williams and Christopher Moore got pictures with Brady after New England’s comeback win, and moments later, they were fired. Williams doesn’t think he should have been fired because he was about to clock out. Moore says that other employees take pictures with athletes all the time. From KHOU:

"“What they say and what they practice are two different things,” Moore said, “What we see on a daily basis, whether it be Reliant or CSC employees, is them taking picture and asking for autographs from players.”"

CSC – Contemporary Services Corporation – released this statement about the firings:

"“It is strictly against CSC policy for its employees to request photos or autographs from players. CSC stands by its decision to terminate the two employees who violated this policy.”"

Hard to argue with that. It just sounds like Williams and Moore got caught. Much like the Texans, they probably won’t win this one. [via KHOU]
