Getty Images Shalise Young, the Patriots beat reporter for the Boston Globe, tweeted this earlier today:
@shalisemyoung shalise manza young
there is a box of Uggs in front of/inside every player’s locker…likely gift from Brady
Then this:
@shalisemyoung shalise manza young
last comment on the Uggs: they’re the Stoneman, dark brown. not too bad looking
But suddenly her twitter reporting started showing holes:
@shalisemyoung shalise manza young
turns out, Uggs may not have been gift frm TB12. there was card in ea box: “Congratulations for making it to Super Bowl XLVI, the Uggs team”
Controversy ensued:
@shalisemyoung shalise manza young
@AllIcareisjets @RapSheet um…overreact much?? never said he took credit. assumed it was gift from him. it was through company
So did national Uggs spokesman Tom Brady gift these sweet foot rides or not? We prefer to think that he did, because that’s just the kind of guy he is. Share the Uggs, share the hugs. And if Brady didn’t do it directly, the Shoe Fairy arriving at Patriots headquarters was certainly there because of him.
More as this story develops.
