I had a moment, yesterday, that was both profoundly disappointing AND deeply illuminating. Regular readers here know that I HAVE BEEN a long time fan of the quarterback Tom Brady. I have admired and do admire a collection of people; the sort of people that would be on my own Sgt. Pepper album cover in my mind. Of course, the characters are different. Alistair Crowley would be missing and maybe all of the others. I never paid a great deal of attention to who is on the Sgt. Pepper cover. I was going to list some of my admired souls but I am sure to forget several.
Yesterday, Tom Brady appeared at the White House and he cut his FORMER friend Donald Trump to doll's rags in a VERY mean and deliberate way. He did it publicly and he did it with the intention to wound. At least this is how it appears to me.
I discovered Tom Brady by accident at the very beginning of his career. I was following another quarterback on a team I had begun to like, as neither the Chicago Bears nor The Eagles were worth watching anymore. I was watching a game and the starting quarterback went down, and in came this Tom Brady. As I watched him something clicked in my head. The other quarterback became history, and I think it was the very next year that Tom led The Patriots to the Super Bowl. I was impressed with his quarterbacking skills but that would not have kept me fast for the long run. It was the way he carried himself that I liked. I liked that he seldom did commercials. He didn't act like a jerk like so many other sports figures do.
