When Tom Brady steps onto a football field he turns into a throwing machine, one of the NFL’s all time greatest quarterbacks.

Sketches of Brady’s Wednesday court appearance have drawn the ire of anyone who has ever seen a photo of the charming quarterback. Some have even transformed the sketches into a meme.
How bad are they? See for yourself.

“I don’t tend to flatter people,” she said, according to the reporter.
