Pittsburgh TV station throws shade at Patriots quarterback Tom Brady

The Patriots have adopted an us-against-the-world mentality, and they seem to get more fuel every few days.

Last week, the story of a 10-year-old Kentucky boy who won a science fair that “proved” Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was a cheater went viral.

You’ll note that both of those people loved what they saw.

Was it an accident? Or perhaps a response to the science-fair winner? Either way, it played well to Steelers fans.
