People really, truly hate Tom Brady and the New England Patriots — even the staff of his new team, which he’s already led to the Super Bowl in Year 1.

Though you’d think Buccaneers employees like QBs coach Clyde Christensen would be grateful for Brady’s influence over his previously-misbegotten unit, apparently there’s still no love lost between the ex-Pats QB and his new “mentor.”

Christensen shared on the Pat McAfee Show on Monday that when Brady chirps at him and asks how many Super Bowls he’s been to, he shoots back by admitting that, while he’s been to fewer than TB12, none of his come with an asterisk.

To which we say: oh man, so original! Also, which Brady title has an asterisk attached? We actually aren’t sure what Christensen’s even talking about.

Does he mean Deflategate? That multi-time-debunked scandal that involved a 45-7 AFC Championship Game drubbing, a “battle” that surely wasn’t affected by football inflation? Because that just can’t be what he means.

Is he talking about SpyGate, by any chance? The equally goofy scandal that involved the ’07 Patriots, a team that didn’t win a ring?

Surely he can’t be referring to the erroneous notion that the Pats taped the Rams’ Super Bowl walkthrough, which nobody seems to believe anymore.

So which is it? Which ring did Brady not earn?

Fortunately for Christensen, Brady doesn’t plan to go anywhere for quite a while, and can rack up some late-career non-“Mickey Mouse” rings to keep him happy. Per the GOAT’s media day interview on Monday, 45 years old is no longer the upper limit of his remarkable NFL tenure.

How much more does Brady have to do in this league before the other 31 non-Patriots teams come to realize he’s the straw that stirs the drink?

Maybe if he wins a ring for every team in the NFL, the world will start to actually appreciate his greatness?

Until then, I guess we’ll have to keep shrugging off these snooze-worthy attacks on his assault on the record book, already written in ink after a remarkable Patriots career.
