00:00This was the headline we really needed to discuss on the Let's Go podcast that I think

00:06is Tom Brady's alongside longtime sports broadcaster, Jim Gray.

00:11Bill Belichick was making a guest appearance, as he often has, and the new head coach of

00:16North Carolina, who has won six Lombardi trophies as a head coach in New England, suggested

00:22that they should rename the Lombardi trophy after Tom Brady.

00:28Donny, what say you?

00:30No, that's not going to happen.

00:32But you know what we can do in the NFL, which I think would be a pretty good deal, is the

00:35Tom Brady Award goes to the most cheatingest player in the National Football League for

00:39that season.

00:40You can award it just like the MVP, defensive MVP, player of the year, all that good stuff

00:44here.

00:45That would be fun to watch, like the Razzies in Hollywood.

00:47Like you have the Oscars, and then you get the award for the worst performance and the

00:51worst movie.

00:52That would be fun to do.

00:53But no, we're not changing it.

00:55Lombardi is iconic in football.

00:58If you raise the Lombardi trophy, everybody knows what that trophy is called at this point

01:02here.

01:03Why would you change it at all?

01:04It makes absolutely zero sense, and I understand what Bill Belichick, probably being a little

01:07tongue-in-cheek, playing it up to Tom Brady, it's his show, and they have a good repertoire

01:11between each other.

01:12I get it.

01:13But no way, shape, or form, the most iconic trophy in sports, outside of probably the

01:17Stanley Cup, would be changed.

01:18Like, what happens to the Stanley Cup?

01:20Like, hey, let's change it to the Gretzky Award.

01:22Like, yeah, that's cool.

01:23That's stupid.

01:24Don't do that.

01:25Absolutely not.

01:26I mean, what are we even talking about, right?

01:29Like, no.

01:30Never going to happen.

01:31Should not happen.

01:33What does Belichick need to slurp Tom Brady for nowadays?

01:36They're not even working in the same league.

01:38He didn't get the Raiders' job.

01:40You know why.

01:41I'm glad they're putting.

01:42You know why, though.

01:43What?

01:44Why?

01:45You know why.

01:46Because here's what happens.

01:47Tom, I got the number one quarterback on the line here.

01:48I promised that you would take him out to dinner and throw passes with him so he can

01:51come to North Carolina.

01:52Look, he's using that for back pocket fuel when he has to go after a recruit and or that

01:57should be a portal that goes, how about if you talk to Tom Brady and he sets you right

02:02here?

02:03Like, ooh, that's interesting.

02:04Yeah, he's greasing the skids right now.

02:05He is.

02:06Okay.

02:07Well, I'm glad that you said that.

02:08Listen, it's just so dumb.

02:10Like, that's one of the headlines that we react to, but it's so dumb.

02:14Vince Lombardi, by the way, five-time NFL champion, won the first two Super Bowls.

02:19His name will always be on the trophy.

02:21I'm pretty sure Tom Brady has won the most of anybody, any player, any coach.

02:26How do I?

02:27He has seven.

02:28Bill Bel...

02:29Yeah, go ahead.

02:30Who was the only team that Lombardi lost to in a championship game?

02:33I can't think.

02:34It was...

02:35He lost one time in a championship game.

02:37I can't...

02:38Oh, that's right.

02:39It was the 1960 Philadelphia Eagles, so knocking down dynasties, that's what the birds do,

02:44baby.

02:45So we can all go...

02:46It all goes back to the Eagles.

02:47It always does that.

02:48Always.

02:491960, the Green Bay Packers were eight and four, 12 game season, what are we even doing?

02:55Yeah.

02:56Let's go back to 12, man.

02:57Ooh, that's a good time.

02:58Ooh, I would have liked to have been there, frankly.

02:59Remember 1960?

03:00If you remember 1960?

03:01Tommy McDonald and the boys, man.

03:02I feel like I was reincarnated.

03:03It's probably somewhere up in the upper deck somewhere.

03:04Just didn't know it.
