Interesting article about a mysterious guy named Will McDonough. Apparently he's Tom Brady's boy and does everything for him. Take the time to read it. No really. Read it.
But here's what I think is even more interesting. Normally, when you hear about an NFL player that has a friend handle his personal affairs, the guys are referred to as a posse. And posse has a huge negative connotation. Whenever you see an in depth story about an athlete who has fallen on hard times, a posse is usually blamed.
My question is this. Why is this guy almost glorified in this article, while all other "posse" members are considered thugs. Could it be race? Maybe. Could it be the fact that Tom Brady is untouchable in Boston? Probably. Or could it be that since it's just one guy, no one thinks about a posse.
In the article, many people consider him to be a little creepy, but that's the worst of it. But he's surely not lumped into posse status and characterized as the the cause of the fall of mankind.
Come to think of it. I need a "Will McDonough." Or a posse member for this site, whatever you want to call it. Drew Rosenhaus is on the clock....
Tom Brady has a One Man Posse?
