There's no avoiding it, inside of New England Tom Brady is one of the most beloved athletes of his generation despite the Deflategate controversy.
However, outside of New England Tom Brady has been labeled a cheater.
But if Tom Brady is going through with his appeal to rehab his image, Andy Hart explains why the opposing fans' perception of him won't change either way.
"Outside of New England he was a cheater after '07," said Hart. "Everybody assumed the beneficiary was the quarterback, right? So he has been branded a cheater. He's done pretty well since then. He's won Super Bowls, he's made a lot of money, he's signed endorsement deals. I think he might just have to fall on the one-game sword."
