Donald Trump just became the most powerful man in America. New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is Big Thing Chief: The Stolen Wifeon the cusp of his seventh Super Bowl appearance and third NFL MVP award. In other words, he's among the most powerful players in football.
The two "winners" intersected at Trump's pre-inauguration festivities on Thursday, when Trump gave a shoutout to Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who attended.

"In the audience we have somebody that’s under no pressure whatsoever cause he’s got a great quarterback named Tom Brady, and a great coach named Belichick -- Bob Kraft," Trump said. "So good luck, Bob. Your friend Tom just called, he feels good. He called to congratulate us, he feels good. Good luck. You’re going to do great things."

And so we have the latest iteration of the Trump-Brady saga.
Though Brady never officiallyendorsed Trump, he essentially did with the "Make America Great Again" hat in his locker last year and the time Brady said it'd "be great" if Trump became president. When reporters peppered him with questions about Trump's "locker room talk" comment, Brady declined to comment.
Trump, by the way, defended Brady during the Patriots' "Deflategate" scandal.
In short, they seem to be buds.
On the other side of the "locker room talk" debate, meanwhile, we have NBA superstar LeBron James, who said, "we don’t disrespect women in no shape or fashion in the locker room."
James, who publicly endorsed Hillary Clinton for president, bid a heartfelt goodbye to Barack Obama on Thursday night, which was Obama's last in office. Check it out below.
In country full of mixed reactions to a Trump presidency, LeBron James and Tom Brady seem to embody that division pretty well.
