[h=1]Tom Brady gives Super Bowl MVP 2015 Chevrolet Colorado truck to Malcolm Butler[/h]



<time datetime="2015-02-03T00:23" content="February 3, 2015" class="datetime flexbox-item"> February 3, 2015 12:23 AM MST </time>
<section class="article-content"> <figure class="featured-video shaded--darkest media media--vertical padding--top padding--sides padding--half-bottom"></figure> The Detroit News reported earlier today (Feb. 2,2015) that Super Bowl XLIX gameday MVP Tom Brady handed the keys of his rightfully won 2015 Chevrolet Colorado to teammate and hero of the game Malcolm Butler, a cornerback for the New England Patriots. It's almost tradition for the Most Valuable Player of the NFL Superbowl to receive some type of car from General Motors. In recent years, Joe Flacco of the Baltimore Ravens was rewarded with a shiny new Corvette for leading the Ravens to a Super Bowl victory in 2013. But this time, Tom Brady always the class act, threw the keys of his 2015 Chevrolet Colorado to the real MVP of the fourth quarter, 24 year old Malcolm Butler.

</figcaption> </figure> All game long, Butler hounded Seahawks wide receiver Jermaine Kearse – he knocked away the pass that Kearse caught, miraculously, sitting on his back to set up the Seahawks with a first and goal at the 5-yard line in the final minute.On second and goal from the 1, Butler set up on the right side of the Seahawks’ formation, the Patriots’ third cornerback. Lockette slanted across the middle. For a moment, he came wide open at the goal line, with Butler standing three yards deep in the end zone. Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson fired the ball. Butler darted forward, doing what he did best during his time at West Alabama — making a play on the ball in the air. He knocked shoulders with Lockette as the ball arrived and snared the pass. Butler surged forward, dropped to his knees and rested his head on the turf. Consequently, the Patriots clinched a pivotal moment in the ending minutes of the game and went on to win Super Bowl XLIX.
The 2015 Chevrolet Colorado is GM's newest addition to its truck family and rightfully so since it's a return for GM to the midsize truck market. The Chevrolet Colorado was awarded Motor Trend's 2015 Truck of the year for good reason. The 2015 Chevrolet Colorado is a smart, capable, and refreshingly honest truck that makes a strong value and efficiency statement. It's perfectly sized and suited for the needs of many of today's truck users. The 2015 Chevrolet Colorado is an affordable mid-sized truck with a starting MSRP of $20,120.

I am sure Brady is hurting for money. Unlike most Colts fans, I admire the guy but why give these millionares cars. Pointless. They can all afford them with cash.

That was expected but still a good move.

its like giving famous rich people free gifts for going to and presenting at an award ceremony. Indeed, pointless.

It is kinda a slap in the face to the rest of America. Lets bring a brand new car out to a guy that doesn't give 2 shits about a car.

Part of it is the advertizing they get, think about it. Highest rated Superbowl ever, and they're not paying millions to buy a Superbowl ad. They gladly give that truck away.

Giselle made $34 million last year and I think their combined net worth is over $200 million.

Such a class act that he left his pregnant gf for another woman

Its not like he left Suzie O'Donnell from South Boston.

It was multi millionaire actress Bridgette Monyihan who pulled the goalie to get knocked up.

As a reward for his Super Bowl-clinching interception, New England Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler will get a great deal on a new truck.
Quarterback Tom Brady won the MVP vote for the game after throwing four touchdown passes in the Patriots' 28-24 win over the Seattle Seahawks, but he said Tuesday that he would love to give the annual MVP prize, which this year is a Chevrolet Colorado truck, to Butler instead.

Rather than subject Brady to potential taxes of up to $22,000 for the $35,000 vehicle, Chevrolet said it will give the truck to Butler directly. He will be presented with the vehicle Tuesday in Boston, a Chevy spokesman told ESPN.com on Friday.

Brady will avoid the gift tax of $8,000, but Butler probably will have to pay as much as $14,000 in income tax for the truck.

Looks like IRS is going to lose $8000 with Brady saving $22,000 Mr. Tax man is this legal..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbQiVQuiu04
