We were affected by some things that people had said, that they were selfish or whatever… [but] that’s an essential element of comedy, since Shakespeare and forever.

NJ.com says Tom Brady fans were recently left furious after he showed poor effort at a $3,600 event. Tom allegedly rushed through the meet-and-greet, which led to "subpar" scribbled autographs on many items. He also changed his mind after agreeing to sign over 100 items without any restrictions. Tom reportedly would only sign photos and copies of his book, despite the hefty cost of the event.


Attendee Brad Jarrett says, "Tom, [your] words were motivational, until we saw the lack of effort that you put in on the signatures we paid a lot of money for. $3,600 isn't cheap, and to hear you preach one thing and then act completely opposite really loses a lot of credibility with your fans and the people that spent their hard earned money for this experience. Reflecting on the words of Tom and focusing on what I can control, I'm grateful that I wasn't one of the people that received a worse quality signature than what I got. I'm grateful I'm one of the people that actually got my item signed. But Tom, you owe better effort to those that paid you their hard earned money expecting better from you."

Collectors have referred to Tom's rushed and scribbled signatures as "Tornado Tom."

Dear Fonseca,

I am an administrative professional and should be happy because today is Administrative Professionals Day. I'm not happy at all. I work for a very well-known family company in the area. The husband and wife run the corporation. She came to me the other day and asked if I would spy on her husband. He is the president of the company while she is the vice president. She says money is missing and she thinks he may be using it on a mistress or for gambling purposes. I have to give her my answer by Friday. My father says I shouldn't get involved. My mother says I should because if I don't I will get fired. She says that the wife is really the boss, not the husband. Is this true? What would you do if you were me? Spy or not? I could lose my job either way so I'm not sure what to do? Is the wife really wearing the pants in the family? Is my mom right? Is she really the boss?
