On Sunday night in Foxborough, the New England Patriots crushed the Pittsburgh Steelers 36-17 in the AFC Championship game to advance to the Super Bowl.
Just one day prior to that, Patriots’ quarterback Tom Brady was preparing for the game by being the best hockey dad ever. Most NFL players would pass the duty of taking their kid to a tournament the day before the AFC Championship game over to a babysitter, but not Tom Brady. No, Brady is super dad, and took his son to the hockey tournament, cheered on the team, and even lugged around the equipment.
Our BarDown Toonz cartoonist, Pengellyink, saw our story on Tom Brady “Hockey Dad,” and decided he would create a topical comic on the subject. Of course, DeflateGate is back on everyone’s mind now that Brady’s revenge tour has brought him all the way to the biggest stage in football… but was Brady trying to give his son an advantage at the hockey tournament?
Tom Brady “Hockey Dad” might be our favourite version of Tom Brady.
We are desperately hoping to see more Tom Brady Hockey Dad pictures and video in the next two weeks leading up to Super Bowl LI.
