Reddit has built a reputation for being brutally honest, often turning into a harsh battleground for celebrities and athletes. Jake Paul was being dragged on the platform after calling himself the “future of boxing.” Similarly, Russell Wilson was mocked endlessly for his “Let’s Ride” slogan. Even pop culture figures like Jared Leto have faced brutal Reddit threads questioning their acting choices. In all such cases, fans didn’t hold back.

This is exactly what NASCAR star Joey Logano recently experienced after posting a Super Bowl snap with NFL legend Tom Brady. While Logano likely intended the X post to be a fun, casual flex, it quickly became the subject of debate on Reddit, where fans unleashed their unfiltered opinions.

Sports worlds often collide in fascinating ways. And this year’s Super Bowl was no exception. The championship game not only attracted die-hard football fans but also brought some unexpected crossover moments from other sports. Among them was NASCAR star Joey Logano, who shared a photo on Twitter with NFL legend Tom Brady before the big game, captioning it: “Game day chat w/ @TomBrady 🐐 #SuperBowl.” For a motorsports star like Logano, mingling with icons outside of NASCAR circles was a headline-worthy moment.

Both athletes have built impressive legacies. Brady is widely regarded as one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, while Logano’s NASCAR résumé includes multiple Cup Series titles and Hall of Fame-worthy achievements. It’s no surprise that this meeting of champions made waves across social media, where the crossover of two very different sports worlds always stirs discussion.

Of course, when it comes to social media, no interaction goes unnoticed—especially on Reddit. The platform is well-known for its brutally honest fanbase. While some saw the Logano-Brady moment as a celebration of champions, others took the opportunity to critique, discuss, and debate Logano’s career in NASCAR compared to Brady’s status in the NFL. And let’s just say, the Reddit crowd didn’t hold back.

Does Joey Logano deserve to be mentioned alongside Tom Brady, or is it just wishful thinking?

Reddit wasted no time dissecting Joey Logano’s Super Bowl moment with Tom Brady. One fan kicked things off with a pointed comment: “Okay, we have to reassess the word GOAT if we are using it to hold TB12 and Logano in the same vein lol.” While acknowledging Logano as a Hall of Famer, they questioned whether he’s ever truly been among NASCAR’s elite.

Another user took things further. He called Logano’s GOAT mention “wild” and hinted that the comparison was a bit of a stretch. Logano’s successful NASCAR career may be filled with highlights, but putting him in the same league as Brady raised more than a few eyebrows on Reddit.

Some fans weren’t convinced that Tom Brady even knew who Joey Logano was. “I wonder if Brady knows who he is or just thinks he’s some ‘special’ fan,” one commenter joked. Another quipped, “Tom’s like, ‘Who the f— is this nerd?’” The sharp humor is par for the course on Reddit, where users rarely miss the chance to drop a savage one-liner.

Not everyone’s comments were purely comedic, though. A few took a more serious tone, questioning Logano’s consistency and dominance compared to other NASCAR greats. One fan summed it up succinctly: “NotMyChampion #brokenformat.” For some, Logano’s aggressive driving style and rivalries in NASCAR might still linger in their minds, making him a divisive figure in the community.

Reddit’s merciless trolling culture spares no one. And given Logano’s reputation for how he has handled hate, it will be interesting to see if he claps back. At the end of the day, moments like these highlight how social media gives fans a space to voice their thoughts, whether insightful or downright savage.
