Emotional Tom Brady on his mother being at the Super Bowl: ‘What a hell of a game for her to be at’
"She's been through a lot."
After accepting his Super Bowl MVP trophy, Tom Brady spoke about his mother, Galynn who has been battling cancer.
“She’s been through a lot,” Brady said, choking up as he spoke. “Way harder than what I went through last night, way harder than what our team went through last night.”
According to reports, Galynn has been through chemotherapy and radiation to treat the cancer. For Brady, her toughness (and his father’s support) has been an inspiration.
“They set such a great example for me,” Brady. He also noted that her timing was impeccable.
“She hadn’t been to a game all year, so what a hell of a game for her to be at.”
Here’s the full soundbite:
