Pittsburgh doesn't get to beat Tom Brady and the Patriots very often. In Brady's career, he's gone 7-2 against the Steelers, and the Patriots' most recent Super Bowl run involved a beatdown of the Steelers in the AFC Championship Game. So, it's understandable why Pittsburgh doesn't consider itself a fan of Brady.
I bet you can guess what happened when Brady posed for a picture with the Stanley Cup.

Pittsburgh reacted predictably:
Why is this happening???

Ugh.

Get your hand off the Stanley Cup, Tom.

for Stanley's sake please get his filthy hands of that grail

You get the point. Pittsburgh fans wanted to know how the Penguins could let Brady near it:
Is this from 2017? What Penguin let him get anywhere near it?

There was even a Spygate and Deflategate burn:
Unlike a super bowl, you can't cheat your way to a Stanley Cup!

There you have it: That's how Brady managed to spoil Pittsburgh's most recent championship in a sport he doesn't even play. He really can do it all.
