It sure sounds like Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie simply does not like Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. He made that pretty clear in the past couple of seasons when he has gone as far as to call the New England quarterback an “a——.”
However, there is now some photographic evidence that may suggest otherwise. In the moments following the Patriots’ 37-16 drubbing of the Jets, the two embraced and Cromartie appears to be smiling.

Of course, this brings about a few questions. The most obvious would have to be, when did Brady and Cromartie become so close? Following that question, we can ask, why does Cromartie look to be so happy following a 21-point loss in front of a national TV audience? Is Brady just a really funny guy who can make jokes around anyone? Is Cromartie just really happy someone like Brady would talk to him?
So many questions.
