Trying to run up the score? You mean successfully playing a game until it is over.
Hate to steal arguments from Jim Rome, but they are professionals. There is no running up the score in pro sports. And especially in the NFL, where parity was born.

Heh heh. Public image? Brady? Does anyone have a bad thing to say about the guy other than he plays to win? Is he supposed to suck it down a notch because the competition can't keep up?

Pfft. Brady endorses a little handful of products. Look at MAnning. Is the guy ever NOT on TV? I wouldn't be surprised to see him endorsing the NBA.
And as for Brady being a "jerk"... The one, the only time he has ever flaunted himself was to Smith after the first TD against PHG. Brady is not jerk, no showboater. He never grinned or smirked all season long before week 11 when the Pats would win by 20 or 30 pts. You never saw him sitting on the bench laughing about it. He's the most professional QB in the league. If you argue that, you're watching something other than NFL.
