Quotes about brady (16 Quotes)


    He enforced Missouri's Brady bill, its gun registration bill, even though he wasn't crazy about the law. And with respect to abortion, he rendered opinions as attorney general that were contrary to his personal beliefs but which upheld Missouri law and were in accord with, in fact, the pro-choice position at that time, because it was the law,

    Federal commandeering of state governments is such a novel phenomenon that this Courts first experience with it did not occur until the 1970s....later opinions of ours have made clear that the Federal Government may not compel the States to implement, by legislation or executive action, federal regulatory programs.... Even assuming, moreover, that the Brady Act leaves no 'policymaking' discretion with the States, we fail to see how that improves rather than worsens the intrusion upon state sovereignty. Preservation of the States as independent and autonomous political entities is arguably less undermined by requiring them to make policy in certain fields than (as Judge Sneed aptly described it over two decades ago) by 'reducing them to puppets of a ventriloquist Congress.'


    After reaching an agreement earlier today, we continued talks and all parties were interested in exploring an extension. Brady has worked extremely hard to develop his skills and has become one of the league's most dependable centerfielders and leadoff men.

    My introduction to the Brady book was an attempt to nail the exact same idea since Brady addressed the point. And since I write pornography, naturally, something of an obsession for me.


    Rohan has a strong throwing arm, so he was definitely able to give us the look when we faced big-armed quarterbacks who could throw the ball deep. Hes a professional. He always came in and did his job and you always want a guy like that, not someone with a bad attitude. He accepted his role knowing that he was behind Tom Brady and had to help get the defense together. He was competitive with it, and I think that helped. Those are the things that made him a good quarterback.

    And we do talk a lot about my past and my impression of things and how it relates to what we're doing now. The Brady Bunch, in its heyday, was really the genesis of when TV started to become the force that it is today.


    This administration has been the greatest of friends to us. We had worked for seven years to get this Brady Bill passed ... it wasn't until Bill Clinton came along that it became an issue in a campaign for the presidency and then, much to our thrill and surprise, it one of the number one priorities for the administration.



    Four of the 13 Patriots on the injury list didn't make the trip to Pittsburgh and are definitely out of today's game. Cornerbacks Randall Gay and Tyrone Poole , and safety James Sanders will sit with ankle injuries, while receiver Andre' Davis remained home because of an injured foot. Linebacker Tully Banta-Cain (knee) practiced this week, even participating on special teams, and could play for the first time. Reserve tackle Brandon Gorin (thigh) hasn't played and didn't travel to Carolina a week ago, but made the trip here . . . Miller, who banged up his shoulder last week attempting to make a tackle, said he should be OK today. Adam Vinatieri is the emergency punter. He was the kicker and punter at South Dakota State. Vinatieri has two punts to his credit in the NFL, both pooch kicks . . . Steelers safety Troy Polamalu is tied for the league lead in sacks with three. The Steelers blitz often, with players coming from a variety of positions. The Patriots often keep a running back in to pick up blitzes, but tight ends are asked to monitor the blitz and, of course, quarterback Tom Brady and his receivers are charged with exploiting blitzes when they see them. ''They've had a bunch of secondary sacks here in these first couple of games, Belichick said. ''Even if you blitz a lot out of the secondary, it's still only eight, 10 times a game. There's just not that many opportunities. Polamalu has hit them all. ... Staley told the paper. ''I don't know how much. I can't make that decision, but I'll go out and see where I'm at.

    They are more alike than you think. I think Jake would like to be on the cover of 'GQ' himself with that hair. Actually Jake was in GQ. Nobody knows that. I was reading GQ, and it was something about his beard. It was like him, Tom Brady and David Carr, and they were saying something like the caveman look works for them. So I think they are more alike than they think they are.



    The book grew out of the introduction I did for Brady's Gates of Janus. I knew that the writing in that introduction had a better than average chance of being read by people involved in Brady's life - parents of victims, police, Brady himself.
