Tom Brady showing his personality as Buccaneer

Reporters who covered Tom Brady for two decades in New England rarely expected anything enlightening or entertaining to emerge from the quarterback’s mouth. Keep to the straight and narrow, reveal nothing about yourself or your team, and just win.

So when Brady began cracking wise as a Tampa Bay quarterback and, once again, as a Super Bowl MVP, people took notice. One media member even noted: “Hey, he’s funny.”

And then Brady, perhaps a bit inebriated, chucked the Lombardi Trophy from one boat to tight end Cameron Brate on another during the Buccaneers’ victory celebration. Well, that video nearly broke social media.
