Hip Hop + Lifestyle : Super Bowl

After last night's thrilling Super Bowl LI finish, following the on-field trophy presentation, Tom Brady retreated to the Patriots locker room to celebrate with his teammates and realized that somebody had taken his game-worn jersey.
Flanked by a couple of security guards, #12 searched the locker room but to no avail. He even informed Patriots owner Robert Kraft about his missing jersey, who replied, "Well, you better look online."
When leaving NRG Stadium, USA Today asked Brady if the situation had been resolved to which he said;

"No," he replied. "It is going to be on eBay soon, I guess."

The missing jersey is still unaccounted for today, despite claims that one of the Patriots' equipment managers had taken it for safekeeping.
Brady was again asked about the jersey during a press conference following his Super Bowl MVP trophy presentation and said it's still MIA.

Per the NYPost:

“The jersey, I put it in my bag and I came out and it wasn’t there anymore,” Brady told reporters.
“It’s unfortunate because that’s a nice piece of memorabilia. If it ends up on eBay, let me know.”
According to reports that jersey could be worth $500,000.
Check out Tom's initial reaction, as well as a statement from Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick regarding the search for the missing jersey.

SUPERBOWL: Brady leads biggest comeback, Patriots win 34-28 in OT

Brady leads biggest comeback, Patriots win 34-28 in OT

HOUSTON - Tom Brady led one of the greatest comebacks in sports, let alone Super Bowl history, lifting New England from a 25-point hole to the Patriots' fifth NFL championship in the game's first overtime finish.

The Patriots scored 19 points in the final quarter, including a pair of 2-point conversions, then marched relentlessly to James White's 2-yard touchdown run in overtime beating the Atlanta Falcons 34-28 Sunday night.

Brady, the first quarterback with five Super Bowl rings, guided the Patriots (17-2) through a tiring Atlanta defence for fourth-quarter touchdowns on a 6-yard pass to Danny Amendola and a 1-yard run by White, which came with 57 seconds remaining in regulation. White ran for the first 2-pointer and Amendola did the deed with a reception on the second.

Brady finished 43 for 62, the most attempts in Super Bowl history, for 466 yards and two touchdowns.

"You know, we all brought each other back," Brady said. "We never felt out of it. It was a tough battle. They have a great team. I give them a lot of credit. We just made a few more plays than them."

Before the stunning rally — New England already held the biggest comeback in the final period when it turned around a 10-point deficit to beat Seattle two years ago — the Falcons (13-6) appeared poised to take their first NFL championship in 51 seasons. Having never been in such a pressurized environment, their previously staunch pass rush disappeared, and Brady tore them apart.

"Deflategate" far behind them, Brady and Bill Belichick won their 25th post-season game, by far a record. It's hard to imagine a tenser victory.

Belichick became the first coach with five Super Bowl crowns.

The Patriots won the coin toss for overtime and it was no contest. Brady completed six passes. A pass interference call took the ball to the 2, and White scooted to his right and barely over the goal line.

His teammates streamed off the sideline to engulf White as confetti streamed down from the NRG Stadium rafters.
