“That’s pretty great for the city of Boston. They love baseball. When I got to the Patriots in 2000, it was entirely a baseball town and they were so ready for a world championship in baseball. Eighteen years later, they’ve got four championships. It’s been a pretty amazing run by that team. They’ve had an incredible year and really a dominating postseason, so what more can you say?” Brady said.

The Red Sox won their fourth championship and this is the city’s eleventh title since the New England Patriots managed to kick off the golden era of Boston Sports in 2002.

“For us as a team, it’s been incredible to part of an organization that’s had sustained success… and the Red Sox, they’ve done the same. They play in a very challenging division with the Yankees. It’s been amazing to see that transpire over the course of my time in Boston. I love baseball; I have since I was a kid. And to root for the Red Sox, to watch them win, to watch them win this year and dominate every single series all year was incredible. The Celtics are one of the up and coming teams with some incredible players. They had a great year last year and they’ve added back two of their best players this year in Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward. And the Bruins have had a great tradition,” the Patriots quarterback said.

“What a great place to be for sports. What a great era to be growing up in Boston, really the Northeast and the six states that make up New England, because there are a lot of winning teams to cheer for, and I know that really inspires a lot of kids because it inspired me when I was rooting for the 49ers. So maybe there’s going to be a lot of great athletes coming out of that region in about 15 years with all the winning and all the joy that really brings families together and makes you be a part of the community. It’s pretty special,” Brady added.
