Show me an example of Brady being egotistical. Seriously. Just because he wins a lot and knows he's good doesn't mean he's egotistical. If anything, Brady is the epitome of a team player, a perfect teammate.
He is no Donald Trump, for example. Donald Trump is someone who is egotistical.
edit: I suppose I should clarify since we're conflating terms here.

I assume 'having an ego' means someone is egotistical. If that's not what Burn meant, then my mistake. Of course Brady has an 'ego.' We all do.
