Tom Brady (aka “The Franchise”) says…
“I was actually trying to do something because I didn’t like the nickname and I wanted to make sure no one used it, because some people wanted to use it.
“I wanted to keep people from using it, then it got spun around to something different than what it was. Good lesson learned … trying to do things a little different in the future.” (via USA Today)
Well Tom Brady, thanks for looking out. Why don’t you give Nancy Seaver a ring and turn the TM over to her so she can keep it safe. Thanks Mr. October, we Mets fans appreciate it.
