  1. Is Tom Brady a Cheater?

This question is beginning to become my least favorite story line in the NFL comparable to how you just cannot see Beckham’s one handed catch for the 1,000th time.  This has been a two year saga that ended at the start of this season with Brady being suspended for four games.

Whether or not Brady cheated is relative to who you ask, though there is no denying the Patriot’s history of cheating. The biggest tell may have been when Brady was first asked if he was a cheater and his reply was a simple “I don’t think so” take it for what you will but he certainly didn’t seem willing to defend his own name.

On the flip side the NFL commissioner has a history of making very poor decisions surrounding players and how and when they should be punished by the league. The system is in a mess that is highlighted by Tom Brady’s situation.  Whether or not the Patriots win the Super Bowl and the Commissioner has to hand Brady the trophy this will continue to be a story line for many years to come and sadly taint Brady’s career even after the Patriots quarterback decide to hang it up.
