Tom Brady Faces Backlash Over Super Bowl Stance
Tom Brady has stirred controversy among New England Patriots fans and former teammates after choosing not to publicly support the team in the upcoming Super Bowl LX matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Initially expressing neutrality, Brady later faced significant backlash for his stance, leading him to send a message to Patriots owner Robert Kraft, urging him to pursue a seventh championship ring. Former players and Patriots legends have criticized Brady, asserting that he should show loyalty to the team that defined his career. Despite the protest, Brady attempted to mend fences with a supportive message to Kraft, but many in the Patriots community remain discontented with his lack of allegiance during this pivotal game.
