These guys know how to connect with you about Boston sports.

Where do you think people, I'd blank.

Go.

Felger and Mazz on 985, the Sports Hub.

All right, calls, as promised, we started with the Brady stuff,

mixing some Red Sox and U.S. Open stuff to your phones. Again, here's Matt in Hanover. Go ahead, Matt. What do you got first? Hi. I just want to say that about Brady. Go ahead on Brady. Yes. Oh, I'm sorry. There's an old phrase that says you kind of are the company that you keep. And I'm just

thinking about lately, you know, there's no disputing Tom Brady on the field, but off the field,

the guy hangs out with Michael Milken, Anthony Robbins, Donald Trump, Alex Guerrero, and Giselle

Blanchin. Are these the people that you would want to be associated with? Well, I mean, let's not turn Giselle. I mean, she's annoying. Certainly in this contest, because it feels like she's pulling him away from football. But is she a bad person? No, no, no. I get no issue with her on that list. Right, me neither.

No, the other people, though, I think does give you some insight as to how Brady sort of thinks. A little bit of a creep show. I mean, Tony Robbins, for sure. Creep show. I mean, and people have mentioned this. I mean, there's a time during that Oprah interview where there's a cutaway, and there's Giselle with the headset on listening and Jim Gray

right behind her. Yeah, what the hell was he doing there hovering

around? Well, because... Remember

it when I... where there's a cutaway, and there's Giselle with the headset on listening, and Jim Gray right behind her. Yeah, what the hell was he doing there hovering around? Well, because... Remember to enunciate, Tom. Well, the timing is this interview was actually taped right before he went to the Malkin Institute with Jim Gray. So maybe they were on their way there, or it was part of one little trip and gray tagged along

or something I don't know but it's sort of like I don't know I mean that was a creepy cutaway

you've got to admit totally I mean the hell is he doing what the hell what the hell I'm telling

you gray has got something on these guys so he just has to. But, yeah, it's sort of

turned into a little bit of a creep show. It's not Scientology, but it feels like it, right?

Bill and Westford, go ahead, Bill on Brady. Yeah, so just quickly, I think, I don't think this

has been raised before. I think it's physical. I think he's probably losing his arm strength or something, and all this stuff is like some kind of a distraction. What makes you think that? Because it's like, how did he go from being like a ruthless competitor, you know, one year pushing Garoppolo out? And then all of a sudden he's like, oh, I'm all about my family. I want to on Oprah. Right that's a... He's like a middle-aged guy trying to deal with physical weakness that just comes upon you naturally. Okay. Well, that's another theory. I don't see one centillion of it. I mean, if anything, the infield stuff has remained as consistent as anything. No, and I would say that, you know, if he loses a little, that's not going to affect him a ton. I mean, a little bit. You know, if he loses a lot, that's a different story. He, I don't think he relies purely on arm strength. So on field, I mean, really, the last four years have been pretty consistent. I think if you go dial it back six years, you say that there was some slippage there, but since they drafted Garoppolo, he elevated his game and he's been the same since they drafted Garoppel. I don't see that. But there is something off the field that has changed in him. There's no question about it. We skip in practices that he's in town for. Like, that's unheard of for him. So what is it? What is it? Is it he's just pissed at Bill? Doesn't want to look at his stupid face? Is he leveraging for a contract, which is what I'm getting to hope? Or did somehow overnight, he just say, you know what? I'm actually 41 and maybe this isn't that important, which would be the absolute worst of the three.

Absolute worst of the three. I mean, to me, this thing is about, they leverage him with Garapolo. He get tired of Bill, and that sort of goes hand in hand anyway, because that's how Bill operates. He leverages you all the time. And now Garapolo's gone, and he says, oh, so what are you going to do now? and he's feeling his oats and he's being a dink about it.

And again, I just think that the move,

because again, to me, this is all about the fact that Garoppola was here and now he's not.
