Tom Brady recently left the New England Patriots to sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in NFL free agency, but that hasn't stopped Boston sports fans from defending their favorite team's former quarterback.

Patriots fans (judging by the many replies to this tweet) were quick to defend Brady and remind ESPN that it had left out the legendary quarterback, who, like NBA legend Michael Jordan, has won six championships and often is considered the greatest player in his sport's history.
