Foul Ball
Columnist has had enough with Tom Brady's injury

I just do not understand, I guess, why the media and sportscasters always have to talk about the huge stars in a professional sport.
I know that not every player is as good as the next, but they are all professionals and they all deserve the spotlight at some point instead of only pointing out the not-so-good players out when they do something wrong.
If you were not from Arkansas or were not a Jacksonville Jaguars fan, you probably have not heard much about former Jaguars wide receiver Matt Jones.
That is, until they blasted his face on the air when he was caught with some illegal substances - then everyone wanted to talk about him.
Why not talk about the man when he made a one-handed 75-yard touchdown reception?
If Randy Moss or Terrell Owens had done that, they would have been on The Best Damn Sports Show Period's Best Top Damn 50 Catches of all time the next week.
I just think the media needs to lay off of the Tom Brady saga and focus more on the season at hand.
But don't worry Patriots fans; Bill Belichick will cheat for you even if they are playing the worst team in the NFL.
