The NFL's Deflategate scandal is more than two years old, but Tom Brady Sr. isn't ready to make it a thing of the past just yet.

Speaking to KRON 4 News on Friday, the father of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady explained he had trouble watching his son get disciplined from afar:

When it happens to your son, it's a whole different context. Or your daughter or any one of your kids and I think any parent kind of understands that. They'd rather take the slings and arrows in the heart than have their kids take it.
