You never QUITE know when you’re about to become a meme. Michael Jordan didn’t know that his Hall of Fame speech would become one of the most widely used memes in the world. JR Smith’s time-clock error in Game One vs. the Golden State Warriors wasn’t a ‘planned’ viral moment. And do you really think Nick Young planned to be known as the guy with question marks on either side of his confused face?
The point is, there’s sometimes just nothing you can do about it. Memers gunna meme.
Tom Brady, who has been the subject of so much internet content that it’s hard to keep track, once again became a meme when a photo surfaced of him showing teammate Ryan Jensen… something to do with a towel.
Well, as it turns out, it may have been the old (and excuse the crudeness) “swamp ass” problem that Tom Brady has talked about with his centers in the past.
Jensen had a sense of humour about it, tweeting this out in response to the photo going viral.
Seemingly involved in all things social media, Brady wasn’t about to miss out on this opportunity. Instead of laughing it off or trying to explain himself, Brady owned the hygienic practice, eluding to it being one of the keys to his lengthy, legendary career.
Who’s to say otherwise?
