It’s still weird to see Tom Brady on the football field without a helmet on his head.
The former QB, widely regarded as the greatest football player of all time, is fully committed to living life from the sidelines as he starts his broadcasting career in earnest. The former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers field general recently made his first appearance as an analyst for FOX Sports.

However, his first foray into sports broadcasting didn’t happen in an NFL game, but at the biggest game of the UFL’s season. He was notably the person who presented the MVP of the UFL Championship with the MVP award.
However, his first major exposure as an analyst was met with fierce resistance. Whether he expected it or not is a different matter, though.

Brady presented Birmingham Stallions quarterback Adrian Martinez with the MVP award during the championship ceremony. It was evident that Brady was still adjusting to life as an analyst and was showing his support by being there for Martinez and the team.
However, not everyone was as happy as the Stallions when Brady presented the MVP trophy. Some fans voiced out their distaste for Brady, reminding him that they haven’t forgotten about his on-field antics at all.

The Spun’s Daniel Bates covered some of the fan reactions to Brady’s appearance at the UFL Championship:
“STL not forgetting [expletive]!” a user exclaimed.
“I’m not going to lie I was booing too! WE DON’T LIKE HIM!” another admitted.
“Never Ever getting over SPYGATE!!!” a fan tweeted. “$500,000 Fine!”
“They’ll never forget 2002,” another person said.
“God bless everyone who stayed until the end to make this happen,” another fan saluted.
It’s an interesting experience for Brady, but he’s probably used to this kind of treatment. NFL fans can only expect better things from the GOAT once the NFL season gets underway.
