The host of the Late Late Show, James Corden, loves to hang out with All-Universe quarterback Tom Brady. A week ago, Corden ran a segment on the show in which he pretended to find himself with a couple of hours to kill and called his BFF Brady to enjoy a little golf. At one point early in the segment, Corden referenced an anecdote Brady related on an earlier edition of the show that aired after Brady won his seventh Super Bowl, this one with the Tampa Bay Bucs. Apparently, after the game was over, Brady’s wife Giselle Bundchen walked on to the field and teased hubby by asking him what more he had to prove. Corden used the anecdote to tee up his own question to Brady.
Fear Didn’t Sink Ben Simmons, Satisfaction Did
When the Philadelphia 76er’s Ben Simmons passed up an open dunk under the basket with 3:29 to play in Game 7 of Sunday’s Eastern Conference semifinal, some saw it as simply the most egregious example of how the $30.5 million All-Star guard had become afraid to shoot when his team needed him most. During Philadelphia’s seven-game series with Atlanta, Simmons failed to take a fourth-quarter shot in five of the seven games and became a late-game liability by shooting a dismal 15-for-45 at the foul line.
