It's a great week for football fans. The Super Bowl is coming up this Sunday and it should be an electric game between the New England Patriots and the Atlanta Falcons.

New England quarterback Tom Brady is nothing but focused on the game, refusing to talk about anything else when questioned by reporters.

When Brady was asked about his alleged ties to Trump, he said he didn't want to talk politics.

"I just want to focus on the positive aspects of this game, my teammates and the reason why we are here," he said. "It has taken a lot of hard work to get to this point. I just want to focus on the positive nature of two great teams competing at this level."

Well, Brady is nothing but consistent. I did some digging and it turns out he's just really focused on his football career.

1. On why he tried to order a burrito at a pizza restaurant.
