After Tampa Bay’s loss to the 49ers, LB Dre Greenlaw, who picked one of the quarterback’s interceptions, came to him after the match. He met and asked Tom Brady to sign the game ball for him. TB12 had sportsmanlike conduct and signed it for him. He relived the moment during the Let’s Go! podcast.
Tom Brady mentioned, “It was [expletive] for me, to be honest. It was complete [expletive]. But I try to be a gentleman. It was a great play he made. I’m happy he’s got the ball. I wish I didn’t throw it but I’m trying to be a good sport. Because a lot of times I’m not a good sport. I can be a pretty bad sport. In the moment when they get me in the right frame of mind I’m actually a good sport.”
Credit where due, it was a great play. Thanks for joining this week @AdamSandler @TracyMorgan Episode out now: apple.co/3PvtEvy
TB12 thrusted for 253 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. He had a hard time while facing the NFL’s number-one defense. Moreover, a loss near his hometown of Santa Clara may look awful for the Buccaneers QB1. But his interaction with Greenlaw deserves praise.
Despite the woes, Brady and the Bucs are sitting atop their division. They have four games left in the regular season, which could determine their playoff fate.

Tom.. A goal for your team would be the first team to have a losing record in the regular season but make the playoffs and win the Superbowl. Now that would be inspirational. I'd laugh at the sports announcers crying.
