Tom Brady made his weekly radio appearance Monday on WEEI’s The Greg Hill Show and he was certainly in a festive mood after New England’s 24-17 win over the Buffalo Bills on Saturday.
Among the many topics he spoke about, he touched on his dad being “banned” from speaking to the media, suggesting the media blackout was semi-serious.
“He’s told me, ‘Dad, please respect my privacy,'” Brady’s father said. “‘If you say something, it comes back at me.'”
That didn’t stop Brady Sr. from talking to the media anyway.
“Well apparently he doesn’t listen because he’s still talking to the media. My dad, he’s just an amazing man. He’s very forthcoming with information, so I keep telling him, ‘Dad, of course they are going to keep calling because you keep talking.’ When he speaks (everyone) thinks I am speaking, but I am not speaking. I said, ‘It’s hard for me to tell you anything…’ What I have learned is I just can’t tell my dad anything. He has his own opinions and dads do what dads do.”
“I love my dad,” he added. “He’s an incredible man and he’s been my role model my whole life. But, he does like to talk.”

You can’t blame Brady for wanting a little bit of privacy. He’s one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game, so everybody wants a piece of him.
