Anyone who isn't a Patriots fan would like you to stop calling Tom Brady the G.O.A.T. Brady would like that too.

In a Tuesday appearance on Good Morning America, Michael Strahan mentioned how "a lot of people call" Brady "the G.O.A.T.," also known as "the greatest of all time." But before he could even ask how that makes Brady feel, the quarterback said "I don't like that, that makes me cringe." Brady would rather you say "you're trash, you're too old, you're too slow, you can't get it done no more," adding that "I would say 'Thank you very much, I'm gonna go prove you wrong.'"
