I was expecting that time to be his 40. /s

Club - I remember a print advertisement for the Volkswagen Beetle several / many years ago.
The content of the add was...
"Zero to 60. Yes."
February 12th, 2023 at 8:40 PM ^
Well.. we’ll all knew he had the endurance.
February 12th, 2023 at 8:49 PM ^
Pfff. I can drive way faster than that.
February 12th, 2023 at 11:57 PM ^
Not in your big ole tractors, you can't. 😁

You mean after the half hour shoveling to get to the truck? Ten minutes trying to start the diesel since it is bio. The one hour plowing the drive. Pulling onto the ice covered crowned road staring down the tractor sized drainage ditches.
I am betting no until the 2 month summer arrives. :)

we're set up pretty well to handle winter. 4WD trucks and van. we are fully mobile even in a blizzard!
February 13th, 2023 at 11:56 AM ^
Just teasing.

Giselle must be impressed!!!
February 12th, 2023 at 9:07 PM ^
Tom Brady extend the brand....TB13:26
February 12th, 2023 at 9:18 PM ^
I clicked on this. Shame on me.
February 12th, 2023 at 9:35 PM ^
Does the new Tom Brady have a Beav?
February 12th, 2023 at 9:36 PM ^
Why does Tom Brady look like a terminal cancer patient
February 12th, 2023 at 11:05 PM ^
Yeah, he does look kinda sickly, doesn't he?
February 12th, 2023 at 11:59 PM ^
That kid has no future in any sport.
February 13th, 2023 at 7:43 AM ^
Great poster boy for the Gittleson weight training program. You too can go from a skinny freshman to this ripped specimen in 4 short years. First round here we come.

Failing retirement within 10 days this time. Dude is a phenomenon.
February 12th, 2023 at 10:12 PM ^
Yeah, that call was weak, but unsurprising
February 12th, 2023 at 10:16 PM ^
To his parents...why you do?
Same like the OSU player a few years ago Michael Jordan
February 12th, 2023 at 10:22 PM ^
In his parents' defense, he was probably born in 2001 (his freshman year was 2019-20), back when Tom Brady was just a good ex-Michigan QB and not, well, Tom Brady.
February 12th, 2023 at 10:42 PM ^
No way, it's more like Michael B Jordan having the same name as THAT Michael Jordan. Just like the track Tom Brady was born before anyone thought the football Tom Brady would become the GOAT, Michael B Jordan was born in Feb 1987 when MJ was a prolific scorer, but not yet the GOAT.
February 12th, 2023 at 10:40 PM ^
Just think how much faster he would have been if he didn't stumble at the end?
February 12th, 2023 at 10:50 PM ^
I feel for the guy.
February 12th, 2023 at 10:53 PM ^
What about Lloyd Brady?
February 13th, 2023 at 7:19 PM ^
The entire story regarding Lloyd Brady just cracks me up. Has he ever met Tom (The football one)? If not that would be great fun.
February 13th, 2023 at 12:24 AM ^
I just ran a 10k and it took me 45 minutes and I was hurting literally the entire time, I almost passed out after crossing the finish line, and my body now hurts. And I'm in pretty decent shape.
I can't imagine running a 5k in 13 minutes. Goddamn.
February 13th, 2023 at 8:18 AM ^
TB5K!!!
February 13th, 2023 at 11:40 AM ^
Tom Brady is having a great running career. He placed 3rd in the Big-10 cross country meet at the U-M golf course last fall. The 13:36 time for 5K is a stellar performance. He should qualify for the US Olympic Trials in 2024 in either the 5K or 10K or both.
BTW; that 5K mark was set by past Olympians and American record holders.
Anyone interested check him out on MGo Blue.com/track and field.
