A 10-year-old kid won a science fair by proving Tom Brady is a cheater

Some kids make baking soda and vinegar volcanoes for their science fair projects. Others find a way to turn their passion into a science fair project.

Meet Ace Davis, a 10-year-old kid from Lexington, Kentucky who created a science fair project about Tom Brady. While kids in New England might be trying to figure out how to scientifically prove that Brady is the greatest quarterback who ever lived, Ace decided to go in a different direction. He created a science fair project that proves that Brady is a cheater.

This news story has been on a number of websites and it really hisses me off.

Root for Brady or root against him in any particular game, but how can any football fan not be a fan of Tom Brady?

"They" have glorified the kneeling scumbag Colin Kaepernick for over two years now and still do. While Tom Brady, not only a tremendous goodwill ambassador for the game of football, but an exemplary citizen as well, and this is what a number of stinking media outlets choose to display. A ridiculous so-called "science" project by a smart aleck kid encouraged by who I would be sure are his punk arze snowflake parents.

Just like we never saw Red Grange or Babe Ruth people 50 years from now will have wished they witnessed greatness.
We are lucky enough to have witnessed it. BTW, I'm a Bills fan. He's beats us like a rug for 17 years.

Tom Brady is a great football player.

He did walk out on his pregnant (or had a newborn) girlfriend (Bridget Moynihan, Blue Bloods ) when the chance to be with a multi millionaire supermodel came along.

Two guys closely asked with TB12 - Julian Edelman and Tom’s trainer - have been linked directly or indirectly with PEDs.

While I’m sure Patriot nation will hate my saying it, he looked like an evasive liar at the ‘DeflateGate’ presser - just a few short days after being a cocky jerk about it on local radio. Clinton sequel choosing of words that day...

So can we please slow down with all the ‘exemplary human’ stuff?

Well Pats fan here , I always assumed he was on PED's for at least the last 5 years. Anyway you can start out as an exemplary human and stay that way your whole life as long as you don't get rich or famous or both. As soon as you get surrounded by bootlickers and brown-noses you turn into a douche bag.

The other day morning sports radio did a bit where they played snippets of a TB-12 rubbish and mixed in gibberish about Scientology and the two were basically the same. Concussion water - invisible aliens same old same old

Actually that was not how it when down at all. Brady found out she was pregnant about 3 months after they split up but don't let facts ruin your narrative though.

Moynahan found out that she was pregnant just after she and Brady split.
https://heavy.com/sports/2015/01/tom-brady-ex-girlfriend-wife-bridget-moynahan-boyfriend/

Brady was shocked when he learned Moynahan was carrying his child. It was about three months after the two had split, and roughly two and half months since he and Bündchen had started dating

Yeah good luck with that conspiracy theory. Its been 10+ years since that split up and the whole "He did walk out on his pregnant girlfriend" statement has been proven entirely false.

He cheated, he got caught. Move on please. Not a big deal.

I do agree he is a fantastic football quarterback, might be the GOAT. If that makes me a fan I am, but I hope he doesn't win this year. Tired of him and the Patriots. Yes, they are great. PLEASE let the Rams (or anyone else) win the SB.

She peaked like 15 years ago , but at the time there were way hotter super models . Bridgette was as good looking at the time it was a lateral move except on a cash flow basis.

No, he lied. He took them. Andy Pettitte, who also took them, told the truth about it and again on the stand about Roger Clemens.

I don’t believe there’s many athletes anymore who get there without it. These guys are egomaniacs (90% of the time) who will lie, cheat and steal to get to the top.

Aside from Roger Staubach and Stan Musial, there aren’t too many guys in the GOAT discussions who would also qualify as great human beings. They’re mostly just like us...

1951WheatiesPremium · January 25, 2019 1:18PM

When the truth comes out, it gets spun and respun so the original details are murky at best by the end.

Experts on both sides weigh in, always with a high degree of certainty that they’re data is correct.

Here’s an easy question:

You ever know ANYONE who broke up with someone and was in a new ‘serious’ relationships two weeks later that wasn’t already going on during the previous one?

1951WheatiesPremium · January 25, 2019 1:21PM

Also, let’s pretend he didn’t know.

So a girl I dated for three years gets knocked up around the time we break up.

I find out two months later and wish her luck.

Salt of the earth or piece of...?

Because there all famous they all get a pass? If Bridget was my sister, Tom would have missed a second season to a knee injury.

Is Tom Brady perfect? Of course not, none of us are.

Is Tom Brady great? Of course he is, and it's not even debatable.

The sky is the limit for Brady moving forward after playing football. Whether it's continuing in football in some capacity, more business projects, or it wouldn't surprise me at all if he ventured into politics.

Repeating something you typed earlier doesn't still make it true the second time around. And how exactly did he just wish her luck again?
He's been a great father to that kid since he found out they were having him which,again if you actually spent 60 seconds researching online,wasn't till months after the split.

From Wiki:
Brady and Moynahan ended their relationship sometime in early December 2006, around the time Moynahan became pregnant.[425] John Edward Thomas Moynahan[426] was born on August 22, 2007

Do the math here,9 months earlier would have been the third week of December. They split "early December". How many people do you know that found out they were pregnant literally a week after conception? It became public in mid February
when, from all reports,Brady found out. Stop trolling already.

Umm, what?

Answer the question. You typed a bunch or garbage but didn’t answer the question. Take the names out.

Boy meets girl. Boy dates girl for 3 years. Boy gets girl pregnant but they don’t know at the time. Girl tells boy two months later she’s pregnant. He’s 6 weeks into a new relationship and says ‘We’ll come visit’ Girl gives birth to child nine months after they break up. Alone.

They way I was raised, that boy has character issues to put it mildly.

Maybe the problem here is just your upbringing and not this kid's. That pretty much says it all right there.

and FYI,"those tabloid articles" asked psychotherapists about this exact topic and their assessment isn't even close to yours.

I don’t judge anyone on fidelity unless they don’t take care of any kids involved. Brady absolutely takes care of his kids and seems to be a good father so regardless if he cheated or not it’s nobodys business to judge him. As far as him being a “Good guy” none of us know one way or the other.

I thought it was a driving reference because most people that don't travel to Boston much usually complain about getting cut off when they come here. Some of us Massholes cut you off while drinking Koo-Aid so beware.

All I was trying to say that what was said above wasn't true,that is all. Brady has three older sisters & a mother who I'm pretty sure wouldn't ever let him skimp out on his fatherly duties if he ever tried to but it was never like that at all.
Here in NE,Brady farts and its all over social media and anyone paying attention can see that his relationship with his first son is pretty special. Not every professional athlete turns into Antonio Cromartie with 14 kids all over the country.

I’ve always disagreed with the “arguing on the Internet similarities to special Olympics” thing. It’s not at all true, a lot of us have been here for north of ten years and in a lot of ways actually know a lot about each other, that being said I always conduct myself the exact same way I would if I was standing in front of you guys talking face to face. I’m not saying I get angry and think about stuff here once I log off but there is nothing wrong with spirited debates and minor arguments, belittling people is another story though, that is moronic behavior in any fashion

I’m not saying I get angry and think about stuff here once I log off but there is nothing wrong with spirited debates and minor arguments, belittling people is another story though, that is moronic behavior in any fashion

You are talking about discussion - which I love, Paul - and I have good ones with you and others. The ‘similarities’ is that once you start arguing, name calling, and closing your mind...

...the analogy become very apt.

ok this has blown past contentious

how about we let bygones be bygones and go play rankingball together?

There’s a great expression that talks about the bottom line similarity between those arguing on the internet and those competing in the Special Olympics.

Knowing this, I’m never doing much more than smiling while typing - this a fun outlet and not a place to belittle others. Not a behavior I engage in much anymore.

Often the smiles come from the cards pictured here and the stories around them, occasionally from a post.

You threw out a comment that has been repeatedly proven to be false in the past 10 years then you kept commenting on how you were raised in your replies to me. Yes,my joke was in jest and pretty ironic seeing that I also grew up Irish Catholic as well but maybe people shouldn't pull comments out of the rear then pretend that they're facts. The whole "Brady dumped his pregnant girlfriend" rant was about as believable as the "Bridget Moynahan purposely got pregnant to save her relationship with Brady" rants that came out at the same time.
How about just leaving the tabloid article stuff entirely to the tabloids?

Lets not act like everything is hunky-dory in this place,you were the same guy that got all bent out of shape a week ago when this Pats fan suggested NY cuts Eli to sign Foles and another member suggested NY drafting Kyler Murray and that argument basically turned into a Giants fan-Eagles fan slapfest on who had the bestest team.

Freshly imported Italian welfare cheese can only go so far.

Not that anyone expects Yahoo to do journalism, but no, he didn't.
