Gridiron Irony

So he is likely already going in the NFL Hall of Fame. But the talk is only going to get bigger and bigger this week as the New England Patriots (won their first season game) but lost their hero, Tom Brady due to a sever ankle injury that is going to require surgery.

So fans of the NFL, in general are happy, realized...
Boston residents, Patriot fans around the USA are stressing out and worried and upset.
Some controversy centers around the play...was it 'dirty,' as Randy Moss speculated? (probably nothing)


But my post today is around the irony of the injury. (Despite the fact I am a Pats fan and was even BEFORE Tom Brady!)
The Irony is this
this week before the game, Tom Brady was NOT on the injury list...the FIRST time he was OFF the injury list since the 2005 Super Bowl!! ( A whooping 32 games consecutively on the injury list! Including going 16-0, last year!)
But this week, before having to be taken off the field to this year ending injury, Brady was NOT on the proverbial, almost common-life injury list.....
