Tampa Bay's Johnson pokes fun at teammate Boyle, Tom Brady in tweet
Tom Brady and the Patriots have ruled most of the headlines in the sports world lately, and many Patriots fans are facing the backlash from the rest of the sporting world over Deflategate. No Patriots fan is safe -- not even the professional hockey players who root for the Patriots.
Tampa Bay Lightning forward Tyler Johnson recently took aim at Brady and Tampa teammate Brian Boyle when Johnson suggested that he would send some beer with an anti-Brady message on the can to Boyle. The brewing company for the beer, Sun King Brewery, is based in Indianapolis and they sell beers at Indianapolis Colts games. The Patriots, of course, allegedly used deflated footballs in the AFC Championship against the Colts.
Boyle is a native of Hingham, Mass., and played college hockey for Boston College before turning pro. He once retweeted a tweet from teammate Alex Killorn calling Tom Brady the "greatest of all time".
