Fans of the New Orleans Saints are still relishing the loss by the Atlanta Falcons in Super Bowl 51 although they had to root for another team in the New England Patriots that they share a bit of disdain for.
But watching quarterback Tom Brady tear up during a press conference when asked who his hero was(answering his dad), his mother with a scarf on her head and weak from battling cancer hugging her son at the Lombardi trophy presentation erased some of that, at least for me.
Oh yeah, and Patriots owner Tom Kraft going full Salt Bae at Commissioner Roger Goodell in his trophy acceptance speech helped as well and it was sneaky discrete.
