Tom Brady Calls Kobe Bryant a 'Superhero' in Emotional Twitter Tribute

New England Patriots legend Tom Brady, who currently remains arguably the most fascinating free agent in sports history, made headlines on Tuesday after posting a poignant monologue to his Twitter profile, that described the immense grief Brady is feeling ever since the untimely death of NBA icon Kobe Bryant.

Bryant’s death last month marked one of the darkest days in the history of sports, and the world of athletics continues to mourn the loss of a nearly god-like luminary who has ingrained himself in the hearts of so many people across the globe.

Brady’s lengthy eulogy talked about how Bryant became such an ambassador of not only the sport of basketball, but for life as well, as Kobe used his experiences as a basketball player to teach so many individuals how our sports games can be an important metaphor for life itself.

The biggest theme of Brady’s piece was trying to explain how Bryant’s void could possibly be filled, saying it’s never going to be one single individual who carry his torch, but ALL of us.

Brady expressed his deep sadness for Bryant’s loss, and called the Hall of Famer a ‘real-life superhero’.
