Tom Brady, the lucrative $37.5 million per year NFL player, has been chosen to award the UFL Championship MVP trophy on Sunday night during the game between the San Antonio Brahmas and the Birmingham Stallions in St. Louis. Despite his Super Bowl MVP trophy wins five times in his career, some argue that calling the game would be a better fit for him, rather than simply handing out the trophy. However, with Brady’s connection to the Super Bowl XXXVI win over the Rams, which some believe involved cheating by the New England Patriots, there is uncertainty about his reception in St. Louis. The city currently holds animosity towards the Rams due to their past rivalries with the Los Angeles Rams and St. Louis Cardinals. Some former Rams players like Kurt Warner and Marshall Faulk still have suspicions about Brady’s involvement in this controversial game.
With no hometown Battlehawks featuring in this UFL Championship game, it is unclear how many St. Louis residents will attend it. However, given that Brady has only played one game in St. Louis since the Patriots’ cheating scandal where they defeated the Rams 45-7, his appearance to award this MVP trophy will surely add an interesting element to this already controversial event.
Despite some skepticism regarding his involvement in Super Bowl XXXVI win over Rams and other accusations of cheating against them, Tom Brady’s reputation as one of NFL’s greatest quarterbacks makes him a fitting choice to award this prestigious trophy on Sunday night during UFL Championship Game between San Antonio Brahmas and Birmingham Stallions at STL’s Enterprise Center stadium.
