Happy 38th Birthday Tom Brady
holy cow am I old. This is disappointing.
Don't feel bad there are people here older than you! As an almost 50 year old I'm going to probably be in that category.
Now get off my lawn!
Mr. Brady and I are about the same age. Seems like only yesterday...
"You know what the greatest honor I've ever received as a player is? In my 4th year and my 5th year I was named team Captain. That, to this day, is the single greatest achievement I've ever had as a football player. Because the men in this room chose me to lead their team."
Those are BIG words from a guy who has pretty much won everything there is to win in the game at the pro level. You can hear his desire in this speech and I think that desire is really something that has been missing in recent years. I think guys now are being held accountable and are learning how to hold others accountable as well. Michigan will be back to a senior led program and I think that's something that will eventually contribute to bringing team success back as well.
you guys get him anything yet? I'm having trouble - what do you get the guy who has everything?
A cell phone. I hear his old one was accidentally smashed.
\ (too soon?)
That is for the "other" football.

How about a dozen of these balls from Roger himself with the easy pump!
You are right as he seemingly has everything. From Gisele's instagram today....
I would probably hate him. Jealousy is a bitch.
Happy Birthday Tom, enjoy it and (in Bo's voice) To Hell With Roger Goodell!!!
You never know who amongst the current Maize and Blue could be the next legend.

I remember my 38th birthday, when I realized that maybe I only had one or two more Superbowl MVPs left in me, and that soon enough I'd be heading to the HoF after segueing into another career after leaving the NFL. It's a bittersweet day.*
(Happy Birthday Tom - Any issues you're facing now may be related to many of us saying that Goodell can suck balls. Maybe his minions took that literally, leading to this mess.)
*Wait, did I say "remember"? Truth be told, I've not had half the accomplishments in pro sports that Tom Brady has enjoyed. Maybe even less than half.
Well, if there is anyone that could stand a more cheerful day in football lately, it might just be Tom Brady. I don't know that a Brady-worthy gift is quite in the budget, but tweeting out birthday wishes will hopefully suffice. I keep forgetting that Brady is less than a year older than me - not sure why except perhaps it is simply a rare event for someone to have had the career that he has had for as long as Brady has.
capitalizing the H in happy and B in birthday?
Technically it maybe grammatically incorrect, but when used as an interjection (expressing emotion from the part of the speaker) it is commonly accepted to have it capatalized. Hey if Harbaugh likes to capatalize random letters for emphasis, I'm ok with it too.
Old school refresher....
My kids use to eat this shit up. They learned while they were at it. Should be required watching. Right before the 3 Stooges.
touch yourself at night.
Hard to believe he's still at the top of his game.
