Tom Brady rewards linemen by giving them huge carbon footprints
No one wants to be a jerk about Tom Brady. Not only is he a fantastic quarterback, he spends the off-season using his fame to support charities that help children with intellectual disabilities. But while he'll lend a helping hand to kids in need, he's less interested, it seems, in doing the same for the environment.
At a press conference celebrating the success of his collaboration with Best Buddies International, he thanked three of his teammates who had also donated their time and money to the cause. In return for their generosity (and for "their protection"), Brady gave the offensive linemen really expensive cars to drive around next season -- which sounds nice (because hey, who wouldn't be excited about a $50,000 automobile?), but when you consider that the Audi Q7 gets 12-14 mpg, these hot rides suddenly seem a little less appealing.
Especially considering that Audi has been working on a hybrid version of this model for almost a year, it seems silly to dish out that forward-thinking SUV's gas guzzling cousins instead. Tom, I expected better.
