STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. A Super Bowl defeat is a moment for self-effacing statements. You say the other team just played better and you pretend not to be seething inside. None of this applied to the wife of defeated Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. Supermodel Gisele Bundchen complained about receivers dropping Brady's passes. The Patriots had no comment after TheInside.com quoted her saying, My husband cannot throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time. It's MORNING EDITION.
