Only Brady didn’t sit for an interview with pop-culture guru Chuck Klosterman. But Brady’s six Super Bowl appearances (and his dominance in their head-to-head matchups) tilt the scales of hagiography in his direction.
Klosterman, one of the top pop culture authors, had interviewed three people this year before his planned sit-down with Brady: Taylor Swift, Kobe Bryant, and Eddie Van Halen. When Brady calls Klosterman, he says he has 45 minutes to talk. He explained how this is an incredible experience, and how you never really know what the actual score is, and that there’s always some sort of side bet, and that Trump always goes home with the money.
Brady says, when asked about the Wells report, “I don’t really wanna talk about stuff like this”. Here’s what the 38-year-old Super Bowl profitable National Football League quarterback had to share with the mag: On Deflategate: “I’m not speaking about that, ’cause there is nonetheless ongoing litigation”.
“I try to have fun with certain things, you know, but some things a lot of times get taken out of context”.
“I don’t want to keep revisiting what’s happened over the last eight months”, he said.
TB: I’ve already answered all those questions. It’s something that – obviously I wish that we were talking about something different… But like I said, it’s still going on right now. Maybe they will. But to me, the increasingly shrill tone of Klosterman’s Qs when he realized Brady wasn’t cracking revealed as much about the writer as it did his subject. “Most of the time I still like those comfort foods especially when it gets to be like 20 degrees and cold out in the wintertime”.
So, no clarity from Brady on the ball issue.
Others, who’ve been bringing “Brady for President” signs to games for years, point to a kind of precedence: If Ronald Reagan could turn his Hollywood celebrity into some formidable political capital, why not Tom Terrific?
