Tom Brady took shot at Peyton Manning in e-mails

As part of that, 1,408 pages of emails from Brady’s Patriots account were submitted, and they have become the topic a of a number of reports since, not least in the Boston Globe, where they detail much of what was contained in those messages. With that said, Brady should be ashamed to talk about Manning that way in private when he displays what is now realized as a possible false respect for Denver’s signal caller in the public light. This goes on a while, when finally Brady asks for a white cover and is told that the company has no white covers.

What was seemingly an endless list of reasons as to why Colts fans simply loathe Brady, just got even longer. Every time we play a Peyton Manning-led team it comes down to the wire. “I’ve got another 7 or 8 years”.

One email between Brady and childhood friend Kevin Brady discussed a Grantland article written by former Grantland editor-in-chief Bill Simmons that compared Brady and Manning. “I’ve got to be durable”.

Flannelly writes: “LOL front runners LOL”. “Manning needs things to be flawless to succeed, weather, his system, etc.”, the friend wrote, who also noted “how well” Brady was “moving”.

Much like anyone else’s work email, it turns out that when Tom Brady is in the office, he’s mainly emailing about boring stuff that really wouldn’t interest most of us, but it turns out that he did have one good line, which nearly verged on a barb, aimed at his long-time rival Peyton Manning. “Proud of U… GO BLUE!!!”

It’s certainly not the most inflammatory statement of all time, but it’s the type of comment that Brady nearly never makes publicly, so as not to provide any bulletin-board material for the other team.

In the email, which the New England Patriots quarterback had sent to a friend during the 2014 season, he wrote that he believed Manning had two more years left in the league where as he can probably play another seven to eight years. “Our best is still ahead of us”, ESPN has learned.
