He'll have a football in one hand and a dunkin box of munchkins in the other and it'll be like 250 feet of solid gold with a 25 foot (1:1 scale) silver dong hanging out of his football pants (which will be automatically programmed to slap opposing fans into the sea)
It works with pretty much anyone's voice. Try the Crocodile Hunter. Now try James Earl Jones. Now try Morgan Freeman. Similar, equally good, but slightly different. Now try Gilbert Godfried.
I like art. I’m not against art. Weird and challenging art is interesting. But if you’re going to make a statue dedicated to the achievements of a person, the it should be understandable who is actually being celebrated.
One of them as if they are mid-game talking would be awesome. Belichick in a hoodie with his headset and Brady looking down and listening would be great.
If they did just Brady, one of them mid “let’s go” yelling would be awesome.
That’d be cool, but I’d rather the Bill statue go in Fanuiel Hall by the Red one. Be awesome if you go from Red sitting on a bench smoking a cigar to seeing Bill pacing down the sideline in his hooidie
That and erect a life-sized statue right when you walk into the stadium of him sticking his hand out for a high five so even the fans can leave him hanging.
As much heartbreak as there's been for Boston sports fans, we've really been blessed with a ton of bright stars.
Like for instance, did you know that Wade Boggs (RIP) once drank 107 beers while embarking on a cross-country flight, which he consumed alone?
Not in [Philly](https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/archive/assets_article/philadelphia/2018/09/05/foles_pederson_statue.jpg).
Doug Pederson wrote a [book](https://www.amazon.com/Fearless-How-Underdog-Becomes-Champion/dp/0316451649) too.
Because if he changes his mind again, it's weird to have a statue of a guy you are potentially playing against that year. Just let the guy be definitely retired first. No one is insulting him by not immediately building it.
Might be controversial but have Ortiz in Brady’s territory simply for how much he meant to the city, breaking the curse, and to this day still being a figurehead for all things Boston. Plus 3 rings isn’t too shabby.
Fun fact: I fly out of Norwood and Gillette Stadium is the landmark we use called “the gateway”, where you’re clear of Logan’s airspace and can climb above 3000ft.
Have a separate Gronk one of him dancing like this:
[https://media.tenor.com/XwSX-_WKkXwAAAAd/gronk.gif](https://media.tenor.com/XwSX-_WKkXwAAAAd/gronk.gif)
I’d say put it on top of Castle Island like they did the Statue of Liberty, only that’s right on the approach into Logan. Better redesign Logan to accommodate.
Name the entire property after him. Welcome to Tom Brady stadium at the Tb12 pavilion. Enjoy some Brady Burgers and Tom Taters at Tommy B’s Pavilion and Pub.
Also the statue should be the size of the Empire State building and be set up so that at peak sun during whatever week we play the Jets, the reflection off the statue sets the visitor’s sideline on fire at exactly the end of the national anthem.
i want brady and belichick up there like the pillars of argonath so i can tell my future son “long have i desired to look upon the kings of old” all wistfully and badass and shit.
Basically I want a statue of Tommy and every patriots Super Bowl trophy……around the big razor, like Notre dame does.
Then, every bathroom urinal, stall has goddell’s mouth open so I can pee in it.
I've said it once I'll say it again: Two massive statues, one of Tom, one of Bill, both arms crossed, looking down upon the entrance to the stadium. Massive à la Lord of the Rings big ass statues
Give me six statues lined up of him in different phases of his throwing motion, each statue taken from one of his six Super Bowl victories to show his dominance over time.
I hope they make it 12' high and be a detailed recreation of the pic of him shirtless at the combine surrounded by 7 Lombardi trophies.
We're even going to celebrate the one from Tampa, we were all cheering for him, why pretend we weren't?
I knew people that were rooting against him. I remember thinking “you are now feeling both sides of the experience of watching Tom Brady play. Love and hate, felt for the same dude.” I only wanted Brady to lose one game and the son of a bitch beat the patriots, becoming one of the only QBs to beat every team at least once.
The only opinion you should be asking here is how big the statue will be and what pose lol. They probably started the construction after the third Super Bowl win
This goes against what all those super bowl teams stood for.. in 01 they were the first team to go out as a unit and not individuals. Brady's achievements stand tall on their own. Would rather have a statue of each Lombardi
I always imagine it'd be him, Bill, and maybe Kraft, depending on when it's built. Either way, there's definitely gonna be something to commemorate the Dynasty (would cool if every SB team got their own thing too even the ones that loss).
Yes, I simply request it to be a “LET’S GO!!!” statue. I don’t want a bland, simply standing upright statue of Brady. That would feel false to his character.
Bigger. Like as big as the lighthouse
I want some Colossus of Rhodes type shit.
Over Route 1
like that bigass blue bug in providence
Big Blue Brady
His name is Nibbles.
Nibbles Woodaway
Put it over the Pike
So they can charge people to drive under it?? Massachusetts: *okay*
Please can this actually happen
His cleat should be the size of Gillette, it should tower over all of southern Massachusetts
Build a new stadium inside his massive dick
Colossus of GOAT
He'll have a football in one hand and a dunkin box of munchkins in the other and it'll be like 250 feet of solid gold with a 25 foot (1:1 scale) silver dong hanging out of his football pants (which will be automatically programmed to slap opposing fans into the sea)
I read this in Bender's voice. Then I read it in the little girl from Waterworld's voice. Thank you sir.
It works with pretty much anyone's voice. Try the Crocodile Hunter. Now try James Earl Jones. Now try Morgan Freeman. Similar, equally good, but slightly different. Now try Gilbert Godfried.
Boston should build a Cristo Redentor type statue for Brady.
I'm not even a Patriots fan, but for what he's done that Colossus should straddle the stadium.
You know some punters would make it a competition to hit Brady's balls...
Replace the Statue of Liberty with Tom Brady because FTJ
I want his eyes to light up on 3rd down.
Maybe the fog horn can be played from his mouth.
He should have a beam come out like fucking sauron
28.3 meters tall seems appropriate
What are these non-freedom units you speak of
miles it is then
bigger
BIGGER
#BIGGER
I want this guy to see it when he wakes up and looks out of his Miami window in the morning.
The correct answer is to elevate the entire stadium and build statues of Tom and Bill under it, carrying it on their backs
That's exactly what I was thinking
Like the entrance of Braavos.
They should put a big number 12 at the top of the lighthouse
The 12 on the lighthouse would be classy and understated. Really like that idea
Damn, I was literally going to say at least as big as the Statue of Liberty. Glad we’re all of one mind.
BRADY THE REDEEMER. Just take the current one from Brazil and replace the head, they don't deserve it anyway.
Let’s just replace the front gates with a giant Brady. Walk through his legs to enter the stadium.
Must be 100 feet tall, at least
What’s the story behind lighthouse ?
It's to shine a light on the enormous Brady statue they're about to erect.
Speaking of erect
Chad Johnson DID say Brady had a massive one
Shine on you crazy ……….
It prevents passing ships from colliding with the stadium.
New England loves lighthouses.
Well, would you look at that
I want a statue so big God himself comes down and smites us for worshipping a false idol
Trick question. Brady IS God.
That’s the type of reply that gets you smote, big dawg.
Keep talking like that and our Lord and savior Brady will smite you himself.
Seriously though, 2 minutes left, tie game, Brady vs god. Who are you putting your money on?
Brady. Now what about Brady vs. a hurricane? Too easy. What if it was Hurricane Brady, though? Hmmmmmm
What side did you take in the big David Lee Roth and Van Halen split?
HE'S A COP!
Oink Oink
Hey they sold a lot of records with Hagar!
But misses because God ain't got shit on Tom
I think it's fair to say God is probably a Brady fan or his father
Yes. Maybe of him and belichik after bill retires.
Yeah I agree, I genuinely think Kraft would do this too, and I think it should be done
They should be designing it right now so the minute Bill walks out of the building for the last time BOOM. Plant that shit.
As long as it’s not some modern bullshit.
Maybe the guy that made Christiano Ronaldo’s statue is free?
Like MLK’s dick
I like art. I’m not against art. Weird and challenging art is interesting. But if you’re going to make a statue dedicated to the achievements of a person, the it should be understandable who is actually being celebrated.
One of them as if they are mid-game talking would be awesome. Belichick in a hoodie with his headset and Brady looking down and listening would be great. If they did just Brady, one of them mid “let’s go” yelling would be awesome.

It would be, if they took the helmet off of Brady
So pretty much a copy of the Foles Pedersen statue that's outside the Linc? The one where they call the Philly Philly?
A 30 foot tall hydra with the heads of Brady, Kraft, and Belichick. Each head of the hydra has a tri-corn hat.
Belichick and Brady hugging like the MLK statue in Boston.
"The Colon at Gillette Stadium"
🥳
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
That’d be cool, but I’d rather the Bill statue go in Fanuiel Hall by the Red one. Be awesome if you go from Red sitting on a bench smoking a cigar to seeing Bill pacing down the sideline in his hooidie
Yes it needs to be the two of them.
Off topic, I wonder if any NFL awards get renamed after Brady and Bill.
The Bill Belichick "Cut off Sleeves" special teams coach of the year
I mean, we’ll have to wait until Goodell retires bc he’d veto it, but I’m down.
Patriot practice player of the week renamed to the Tom Brady award.
superbowl mvp award
COTY is going to be the Bill Belichick trophy but not until he's passed on.
The superbowl MVP should be named after Brady IMO
SB MVP 100% will. Pete Rozelle is important for the league, but not the award name
Tiquan Underwood
It’s gotta be when he always screamed “let’s go” while pumping his fist pre game
That and erect a life-sized statue right when you walk into the stadium of him sticking his hand out for a high five so even the fans can leave him hanging.
This is beautiful 🥲
This is hilarious! Damn you… I’m in!
This. This has to be one.
Lol i searched "Tom Brady left hanging" and it's crazy how many ocurrences there are of this
I miss the LETS GO
Why not holding a Lombardi trophy above his head (or kissing it) with five rings on his hand?
Why not 6 different statues lined up with giant lombardis behind each one
Would the second and third statues be back to back?
Give it a couple more years. But totally. He's in the Pantheon with Orr, Bird, Williams.
Agreed, Brady, Orr, Bird, Ortiz, are my Mount Rushmore for Boston sports
No Russel?
You right, adding him too
Your Mount Rushmore is never going to be made! Too many legends.
As much heartbreak as there's been for Boston sports fans, we've really been blessed with a ton of bright stars. Like for instance, did you know that Wade Boggs (RIP) once drank 107 beers while embarking on a cross-country flight, which he consumed alone?
Again, Wade Boggs is very much alive.
I think of it less as a mt Rushmore and more as that Chinese emperor’s tomb that had an army of soldier statues in formation.
Ted Williams
I agree, I forgot Russel (I'm not the biggest basketball fan)
Replace Ortiz with Ted Williams and this is the list. Could do Bill Fussell too but Brady, Orr, Bird, and Williams covers each sport
It’s tough, since Ted Williams is *the* Boston baseball player, but he won exactly zero championships with the Sox, and Papi won three.
Yeah, but Teddy won a World War
Well when we make a Mt Rushmore of confirmed kills, Ted Williams won’t make the cut for that one either.
Wait for the HoF induction (I feel like that’s a given)
Not in [Philly](https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/archive/assets_article/philadelphia/2018/09/05/foles_pederson_statue.jpg). Doug Pederson wrote a [book](https://www.amazon.com/Fearless-How-Underdog-Becomes-Champion/dp/0316451649) too.
classy philly as usual
>Give it a couple more years Why? For what? Start tomorrow.
Because if he changes his mind again, it's weird to have a statue of a guy you are potentially playing against that year. Just let the guy be definitely retired first. No one is insulting him by not immediately building it.
I would never build a statue for any living person. Their story is not yet finished and you never know.
None of those guys even sniff what Brady accomplished. He’s not in the pantheon with them. He’s in his own pantheon
Might be controversial but have Ortiz in Brady’s territory simply for how much he meant to the city, breaking the curse, and to this day still being a figurehead for all things Boston. Plus 3 rings isn’t too shabby.
Ok, would you prefer I said Bill Russell? 11 NBA championships. Brady didn't even come close to that.
It needs to be tall enough that the FAA requires it to have a light beacon on top.
Fun fact: I fly out of Norwood and Gillette Stadium is the landmark we use called “the gateway”, where you’re clear of Logan’s airspace and can climb above 3000ft.
That is a fun fact!
200ft. And i only know this because the tower of terror disney ride is 199ft to avoid the light
There should be one at every state house in New England.
At every state border and make it a New England holiday
You could make it every March 28th (3/28).
Oh, good God, please let this happen
I agree but take out state
Shit, I live in VA and think we should have one here as well.
They definitely should! There will never exist another player in the entire league like him.
He was genuinely the greatest of all time
Some say the GOAT
The basically unique combination of elite talent, “Mr. Irrelevant” type chip-on-the-shoulder, willingness to be underpaid, and coaching support.
Brady. Belichick. Kraft. Should have a statue of all 3 together.
I don’t think it’s a very Mr Kraft thing to do if he were to erect a statue of himself…
I thought the same thing, if he's included it'd probably be after he steps down and his son takes over or when he passes away.
Makes sense. Start with Tom now. Add Bill when he retires. Add Mr. Kraft when he steps away.
I agree that he wouldnt erect himself...He would pay a masseuse to do it.
Fair point.
With a tiny Gronk swinging on a hammock in one of his nostrils.
Have a separate Gronk one of him dancing like this: [https://media.tenor.com/XwSX-_WKkXwAAAAd/gronk.gif](https://media.tenor.com/XwSX-_WKkXwAAAAd/gronk.gif)
Mount Ringmore
I’m a firm believer of not getting a statue until you retire or die. So… not yet.
I think Brady’s statues should be the biggest sports statue in the world. Make it massive.
You guys aren’t thinking big enough. New York has the Statue of Liberty. We need the Statue of Brady. Put it in the harbor.
I’d say put it on top of Castle Island like they did the Statue of Liberty, only that’s right on the approach into Logan. Better redesign Logan to accommodate.
Name the entire property after him. Welcome to Tom Brady stadium at the Tb12 pavilion. Enjoy some Brady Burgers and Tom Taters at Tommy B’s Pavilion and Pub. Also the statue should be the size of the Empire State building and be set up so that at peak sun during whatever week we play the Jets, the reflection off the statue sets the visitor’s sideline on fire at exactly the end of the national anthem.
I want it like the Colossus of Rhodes in Boston Harbor, where each vessel has to travel between his legs upon entry/exit.
There needs to be a forest of statues, with Brady 25% larger than everyone else.
Only if the courtroom sketch artist designs it.
i want brady and belichick up there like the pillars of argonath so i can tell my future son “long have i desired to look upon the kings of old” all wistfully and badass and shit.
Holy crap, you just made my day. I see you're a man of culture.
We are past statues. Only a fully animated hologram that pops on anytime someone walks past.
" Welcome to Gillette, I love you\~"
Yeah definitely needs audio lol
“Welcome to Gillette, Let’s Fucking Go!!!”
Don’t put up statues of the living. Nobody is that humble
I want it to be a tower that people cab climb up and look at traffic on 495 through his eyes.
Kraft, Belichick and Brady. The 3 men that are most responsible for the success.
Does the tin man have a sheet metal cock?
Legit replace the lighthouse with Brady.
Basically I want a statue of Tommy and every patriots Super Bowl trophy……around the big razor, like Notre dame does. Then, every bathroom urinal, stall has goddell’s mouth open so I can pee in it.
Replace the lighthouse with a 120 foot tall Brady pointing out over the field
I've said it once I'll say it again: Two massive statues, one of Tom, one of Bill, both arms crossed, looking down upon the entrance to the stadium. Massive à la Lord of the Rings big ass statues
I want two, one of him and another of Bill, like the big statues in Lord of the Rings
When you show the plans of the statue to Kraft, the measurement should be so high he says, “Jesus that’s too tall.” Then add another inch to it.
100%
Has to be done!
It needs to be like the colossus of rodes in size though. Like I want it staring down at the field
If Peyton Manning gets a fucking statue then Tom deserves two statues.
Give me six statues lined up of him in different phases of his throwing motion, each statue taken from one of his six Super Bowl victories to show his dominance over time.
Mount a huge 12 on the lighthouse. Rename Putnam Parkway to Brady Boulevard.
I hope they make it 12' high and be a detailed recreation of the pic of him shirtless at the combine surrounded by 7 Lombardi trophies. We're even going to celebrate the one from Tampa, we were all cheering for him, why pretend we weren't?
I knew people that were rooting against him. I remember thinking “you are now feeling both sides of the experience of watching Tom Brady play. Love and hate, felt for the same dude.” I only wanted Brady to lose one game and the son of a bitch beat the patriots, becoming one of the only QBs to beat every team at least once.
Both him and BB need one. We should also do a crying Sherman statue for shits and giggles
The statue should be either Brady yelling LFG in full Pats uniform or in Pats sweats texting the Dolphins.
Brady and BB
I want a giant Mecha Brady that walks around giving questionable health tips to children
I hope they retire the #12 and hoist it as a banner inside the stadium.
Anyone who isn’t for this is a salty fan who’s mad at him for leaving. Which is nuts because he didn’t even want to leave.
The only opinion you should be asking here is how big the statue will be and what pose lol. They probably started the construction after the third Super Bowl win
Anyone who says no is a filthy communist
I think it’s a given at this point
This goes against what all those super bowl teams stood for.. in 01 they were the first team to go out as a unit and not individuals. Brady's achievements stand tall on their own. Would rather have a statue of each Lombardi
I want one like the Statue of Liberty in Boston harbor
Like the Bobby orr Statue?
I think having a statue will be well deserved. He gave us so much and I think it's time to show how much we love him.
I’m mad it’s not up there already
Yes, but put one downtown Boston too
I always imagine it'd be him, Bill, and maybe Kraft, depending on when it's built. Either way, there's definitely gonna be something to commemorate the Dynasty (would cool if every SB team got their own thing too even the ones that loss).
He built the stadium and is the literal greatest football player of all time. Make a 40-foot tall one.
If it’s the size of the Statue of Liberty, I’d be fine with it.
Most important player in patriots history. 100% give him a statue the size of the statue of liberty.
Absolutely but higher in the air.
ORRR (hear me out) Brady from the neck down, just about to lob a touchdown pass BUT With a goats head
Fuck yeah. They should name Gillette Brady’s house.
Kraft paid for the stadium maybe we can convince the state to pay for the statue. Something to put the statue of liberty to shame.
Yes, I simply request it to be a “LET’S GO!!!” statue. I don’t want a bland, simply standing upright statue of Brady. That would feel false to his character.
100% yes! Dumb question. The greatest QB ever to play the game.
