Stand by your Man.

  I'm not a Tom Brady fan. I'm not a Gisele Bundchen fan. And I'm certainly not a Patriots fan. But you've gotta give the girl credit, she loves her husband. The last four Superbowls have all been decided during the last two minutes of the game. And this year's was no different. With just seconds left Brady threw up a Hail Mary pass and hearts of Patriots fans' everywhere stopped. Only to watch a sea of Giants jerseys dash their Lombardi trophy dreams. And then the drama began...

As Mrs. Tom Brady made her way through the sea of media to her husband's locker room after the game she was bombarded with heckling. "Eli owns your husband." "Eli rules!" She snapped. Barking back at photographers, "You have to catch the ball when you're supposed to catch the ball," and she didn't stop there. Gisele went on to lash out at Patriots players, specifically wide receiver Wes Walker, "My husband cannot f--king throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time. I can't believe they dropped the ball so many times." Once Mrs. Brady had spoken her peace, she and her QB hubby left the stadium steering clear of reporters. But while the reporters Gisele mouthed off to brushed off her anger fueled tirade news stations across the country weren't as forgiving. Boston blogs blew up with fan backlash from the use of the f-bomb to Ms. Bundchen's criticism of her husband's teammates. 

  Fans weren't the only ones to speak their minds on the topic. Giants' running back Brandon Jacobs let the press know his feelings on the matter stating Mrs. Brady should "continue to stay cute and shut up." And I must say I have to agree with Mr. Jacobs. I'm all for defending your man but not at the expense of his fellow teammates. It is absolutely expected for a wife or girlfriend to be upset after their husband or boyfriend loses in the Superbowl but save it for the car ride home.  My Noni always said "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all," in today's media driven society that phrase should instead read "If you don't have anything nice to say, post it on Twitter, Facebook, blogs, or sell it to the press." She might be able to strut down a runway in 50 ft light up angel wings but Ms.Bundchen is no sports commentator. She might be married to an athlete but she's not the one in the pads throwing the football and even her husband, who IS the athlete, had his wits about him to keep his comments to himself. Hopefully everyone learned a lesson from this episode of "When football wives attack" especially Gisele Mrs. Tom Brady Bundchen. 

Here's some fun little social media humor I found that would make even Wes Walker laugh:
