Matt Damon And Ben Affleck Fight For Tom Brady's Love In New Ad
Ron Dicker
They’re hunting for Tom Brady’s good will.
Actors Matt Damon and Ben Affleck fight for the star quarterback’s affection in a comic bit for charity posted Thursday. They compare notes on who’s closer to the Patriots icon and accuse each other of sucking up to him ― while Brady listens.
Damon makes the scoring play of the clip with a dig at Affleck’s panned film “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice.” But nobody mentions Deflategate. Guess some things are sacred.
