Traina Thoughts: John Lynch Inquired About Trading For Tom Brady

When Bill Belichick told John Lynch that Jimmy Garappolo was not available, Lynch asked about Tom Brady.

1. Give John Lynch credit. According to FOX Sports' Jay Glazer, when the 49ers GM tried to inquire about trading for quarterback Jimmy Garappolo before the season, Bill Belichick told him Garappolo was not available. So Lynch then turned his attention to acquiring Tom Brady

2. So, Deion Sanders got all pissy because Tony Romo said that Prime Time was not a good tackler during yesterday's Chiefs-Cowboys game. Sanders ripped into Romo on the NFL Network, citing Romo's playoff record and interceptions.

But guess what? Romo was right. Sanders was an awful tackler.

3. Sure, it's not exactly a potato sack race, but don't sleep on Chris Long's sack celebration. The Eagles defensive end busted out a solid effort yesterday.

4. Astros third baseman Alex Bregman stopped by the SI.com office today and I discovered he had a cracked iPhone. Terrible look for a World Series champion.

5. Puff Daddy needs to be sued for copyright infringement. The rapper announced yet another name change, this time going to Brother Love. Any old-school WWE fan knows there is only one Brother Love.

6. As proven in the video below, every video of Giants coach Ben McAdoo needs Curb Your Enthusiasm music.

7. It's always interesting to see what stories athletes respond to. Obviously Dwyane Wade feels strongly about this issue.

BONUS ITEM: I have no idea how you'd even go about picking tonight's Lions-Packers game. I'm thinking under 42.5.
