Tony Romo's crude Gisele Bündchen quip is problematic beyond tarnishing Tom Brady's historic moment

Gisele Bündchen is an incredibly accomplished woman, and in many parts of the world, she is more well-known and recognizable than her husband. She is a stalwart environmentalist, an activist for numerous other causes, a best-selling author, businesswoman, and mother.

But in an instant on Sunday, she was reduced to a piece of property that should be passed around like a bowl of Halloween candy for ... a piece of memorabilia.

Bündchen's husband is Tom Brady, as everyone knows at this point. On Sunday against the Chicago Bears, Brady did a pretty amazing thing: He became the first quarterback in the 101-year history of the NFL to throw 600 touchdown passes in the regular season.
