Posted November 24, 200618 yr Tom Brady was born on August 3, 1977 in San Mateo, California. He attended Junipero Serra High School, the same high school which produced Barry Bonds of the SF Giants. He attended the University of Michigan from 1995 to 1999. He was a backup to Brian Griese when the Wolverines went 12-0 and won the national championship in 1997. Brady shared the starting quarterback job with Drew Henson in 1998 and 1999, but managed to compile a 20-5 record over those two years, including a 2-0 record in bowl games. The New England Patriots made him a sixth round draft choice in 2000, the 199th player selected overall in the draft. He spent 2000 as a fourth string quarterback behind Drew Bledsoe, John Friesz and Michael Bishop. In 2001, Brady elevated to second string quarterback behind Bledsoe as training camp broke. The fortunes for both Brady and the Patriots changed forever on September 23, 2001, as Bledsoe was hit hard by New York Jet linebacker "Mo Lewis", suffering a near life-threatening injury. Brady replaced Bledsoe in the contest, and has started every Patriot game at quarterback since. Bledsoe was never able to regain his starting job, as Brady led the Patriots on an 11-3 run to close the 2001 regular season, then led the Patriots through the playoffs and an improbable 20-17 win over the St. Louis Rams, a 14-point favorite, in Super Bowl XXXVI. After an ordinary 2002 season, Brady skippered the Patriots to one of the greatest seasons in NFL history in 2003. The Patriots began the season 2-2, then won every remaining regular season and playoff game, capped off by a 32-29 win over the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl XXXVIII. Brady followed that up with a second consecutive Super Bowl appearance in 2004, as the Patriots once again went 14-2 in the regular season and defeated the Philadelphia Eagles, 24-21 in Super Bowl XXXIX. Brady is 9-0 all-time in the playoffs in his career following Super Bowl XXXIX. In the first two Super Bowls he has played in, Brady was named the Super Bowl MVP, becoming one of only four players in NFL history to win this award more than once. Brady is 48-14 as a starting Patriot quarterback going into the 2005 season. His poise as well as his penchant for playing with incredible cool and precision in big games is drawing comparisons with the great Joe Montana, former SF 49ers quarterback. Led the New England Patriots to the their second NFL championship in three years with a 32-29 victory over the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl XXXVIII. Was named Super Bowl MVP for the second time. [2004] Named as one of "People Magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People" (2002). Chosen in 2000 NFL draft. He was slotted as the Patriots' third-string backup QB, but was elevated to second-string when the Patriots reassigned Michael Bishop to NFL Europe. Is dating actress Bridget Moynahan. Shares a birthday with Metallica frontman James Hetfield. With the New England Patriots' record-breaking 18th consecutive regular season win and record 21st consecutive overall win including playoffs, Tom Brady's record as Patriots starting quarterback as of October 2004 stood at 40-12 for the regular season, 3-0 in pre-Superbowl playoffs (his appearence in the 2001 AFC Title game was cut short in the second quarter to injury and Drew Bledsoe finished the game, a 24-17 Pats win), and 2-0 in the Superbowl. Was President George Bush's guest at his 2004 State of The Union address, and got to sit next to First Lady Laura Bush. Defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2005 playoffs extending his playoff record to 10-0 and setting the record for most playoff wins by any QB in playoff history. (Brady's streak ended the next week in a devastating loss to the Denver Broncos also ending any hopes of the first 3-pete in NFL history) A die-hard New York Yankees fan, he used to wear a Yankee cap around in the Patriots locker room until someone told him that he shouldn't. I cant believe there wasnt a thread for him. Tom Brady is the sexiest man ever. Also, Gisele has a huge crush on him.
November 24, 200618 yr Author The only thing I like about him is his girlfriend/wife.Really? I hate his girlfriend.She is a gold-digger. Tom is the highest paid NFL playerand she is just a B-List actress. He needs an upgrade.He should have hook-uped w/ Gisele when he had the chance.

November 24, 200618 yr Author BUNDCHEN EYES FOOTBALL STAR Newly-single supermodel GISELE BUNDCHEN has a crush on American football star TOM BRADY.The Brazilian, 25, and long-term love LEONARDO DiCAPRIO ended their on/off five-year romance earlier last month (NOV05).While Bundchen admits she thinks the New England Patriots sports ace is "cute", she hates the idea of stealing him away from his partner, actress BRIDGET MOYNAHAN.She explains, "Tom Brady, definitely not too shabby. He's pretty cute. All-American, that's a good way to describe him."But he has a girlfriend, right? He's cute, but if he has a girlfriend, he's gay to me."There are too many men in the world to go after a man who has a woman. Life is too short." 06/12/2005 09:29 My sourcehttp://www.contactmusic.com/new/xmlfeed.ns...football%20star
November 24, 200618 yr Author "He's gay to me..." Gisele is anything but a subtle wordsmith, it seems. Yeah, Tom thought Gisele's comment was kind of harsh. Tom Brady seemed a tad chagrined yesterday when he heard about supermodel Gisele Bundchen
November 25, 200618 yr On the other hand, there's worst things that can happen to a guy than a VS angel saying she quite fancies you. I think I'd walk around all week like I just won a Nobel prize after something like that.
November 25, 200618 yr Author Gisele isn't the only VS angel that is crazy for him. Karolina Kurkova had a thing for him too. But the story sounds like BS to me. At the launch for the Victoria
January 6, 200718 yr New England Patriots WHY THEY'LL ADVANCE: Two reasons: quarterback Tom Brady and coach Bill Belichick. This dynamic duo keyed their Super Bowl runs in the 2001, `03 and `04 seasons. Brady didn't throw an interception in his last 135 regular-season passes, and he has the NFL's lowest all-time playoff interception mark (five in 367 passes). A perennially stingy and bewildering defense has allowed the sixth-fewest yards and is led by Richard Seymour, Tedy Bruschi, Mike Vrabel and Ty Warren, the AFC's defensive player of the month in December. WHAT WILL STOP THEM: Brady is 10-1 in the playoffs, but this will be uncharted territory for his relatively unknown receiving corps. The Patriots will miss safety Rodney Harrison (knee) on run defense, and they'll have to rely on rookie kicker Stephen Gostkowski instead of Adam Vinatieri, whose field goals provided the difference in their Super Bowl wins.
January 18, 200718 yr According to the Boston HeraldDoes Tom have Secret he’d like to share?By Gayle Fee and Laura RaposaTuesday, January 16, 2007 - Updated: 01:24 AM ESTHas Tom Brady traded up? Word from San Diego is that supermodel Gisele Bundchen - who once professed her admiration for the New England Patriots QB/QT - was outside the Pats’ locker room after Tom & Co. shocked the Chargers on Sunday. “She was standing outside the locker room, just kind of leaning against the wall,” said our spy in the bowels of QualComm Stadium. “No one noticed her, she was dressed like a high-school kid, just in jeans and a T-shirt. But she is gorgeous.” Adding fuel to this possible Gisele-Brady hook-up is the fact that the Victoria’s Secret’s sweetheart was in the company of Tom’s go-to guy Will McDonough, (no relation to the late columnist). “He’s Tom’s Do-Boy,” said our spy. “If she was with him, she was headed for Tom.”
January 19, 200718 yr ahahaha I don't think anything is a creditable source, except the person themself or photos. No photos & no Gisele quotes.... no relationship. It would be a cute one though if they were bf & gf! Better than Leo anyways! lol
