When Tom Brady said Sunday that he hoped there would be more people at the Patriots’ Super Bowl victory celebration than there were at the team’s send-off at Gillette Stadium, the New York media played up Brady’s premature party planning.
“The game has to be played on Sunday,’’ Brady said. “That’s going to be the only thing that determines the outcome of the game. No talk, no media, no speculation, no parties are really relevant at this point.’’
“We wouldn’t have boarded the plane if we didn’t expect to win,’’ he said. “I think that is the bottom line. We have come here for one thing and one thing only which is to win. We are expecting to win this game come Sunday.’’
Tom Brady and other Patriots players are talking to the media and, as expected, they’re not giving the New York Giants any bulletin board material for the 2012 Super Bowl.
Here’s what Brady had to say on media day:
“A win means everything. That’s why we’re here. We’re trying to go out there and win this game. It’s certainly not going to be easy. There’s a lot of buildup around the fact that we played these guys four or five years ago but those were very different teams, too. The team that wins on Sunday will be the team that plays the best and that’s what we’re going to try to do, go out there and play our best.”
