In an interview after his game against the Washington Redskins this Sunday, Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady announced that he was excited for Uggs season to start up again in the next few weeks. “Usually by this time of the year I would have been wearing my Uggs for close to a month, but we have had such warm weather that I haven’t felt justified wearing them yet. Either way, after the game I got to look at the weather report for the next few weeks and it looks like Uggs season is definitely coming around. I’m excited.”

Following the comment, the room fell silent as journalists from the nation’s largest news organizations tried to figure out why Brady had just answered the question “What are your comments on the offense’s performance today?” in such an odd way.

The interview ended abruptly a few minutes later when Brady answered The Freudian Slip’s follow up question of “Do you think the Patriots will go undefeated this season?” by expressing his excitement about being able to break out his North Face jacket on a regular basis. Following the press conference, the NFL fined Brady $13 million for endorsing non-NFL affiliated businesses at a sports event.

Hipster Quote of the Week:

The message at the end of “The Tortoise and the Hare” isn’t that ‘slow and steady wins the race’, but actually a well-remembered quote from the 1977 Disney classic “A New Hope”: “Great kid! Don’t get cocky”. Bullshit that the hare was gonna lose that race if he didn’t choose to stop for a nap and a snack and whatever else he did. Bullshit that the tortoise was going to catch up in any capacity if the hare didn’t slow down for him. Maybe that platitude makes sense, but definitely not in this situation.

 

A race is a sheer contest of speed. No other skills go into that. The tortoise and the hare aren’t making miniature wooden horses and getting judged on the craftsmanship of their products alongside their finish time; they are moving from one point to another. In no universe does slow and steady win that race. Slow and steady wins no races, except for races where the point is to go as slow as possible. Even in cases where slow and steady could be considered a possible alternative to fast, such as the aforementioned miniature-wooden-horse-making competition, someone who can do similar quality work at a much faster pace still wins that competition.

 

Slow and steady does not win the race. Not being too full of yourself does.."
