guy. The supermodel wife is probably enough for most guys but he now has four Super Bowl rings.
February 2nd, 2015 at 8:42 AM ^
is usually enough for a guy
or Bridget Moynihan. . .
and yet he still managed to upgrade from that.
And has a $20 million mansion . . .
Not bad for the kid who was benched in favor of Drew Henson

Tara Reid is fucking crazy [hot].
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:03 AM ^
Maybe in 1999...
February 2nd, 2015 at 12:32 PM ^
Looked pretty good in the American Reunion movie from a couple years ago.
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:50 AM ^
She may have been hot, but she is still crazy. In any case, Tom Brady doesn't have to settle for hot and crazy because he can get hot and not crazy.

are deep.
February 2nd, 2015 at 10:04 AM ^
That mansion has a damn mote
February 2nd, 2015 at 10:14 AM ^
That would be moat... a mote is a tiny thing. Brady's moat is quite large (actually was quite large - he sold the mansion last year).
February 2nd, 2015 at 10:26 AM ^
it really helped keep the black knight at bay

against Michigan State in 1999 I believe it was.
The game where LC put him back in the game and couldn't pull it out on the final drive.
February 2nd, 2015 at 10:25 AM ^
Seriously. The guy is married to a supermodel. He just won MVP of the Super Bowl and that's still not the best part of his day.
February 2nd, 2015 at 8:40 AM ^
Understatement of the year...: UM team captain, married to a supermodel, multi-superbowl winner/MVP, best player EVER in the NFL, dashing good looks, New England eating out of his hand, and now movie star (See Ted 2!). Yeah, just a little lucky

Rice is a great player, no doubt...but the best player ever has to be a quarterback when a qualified candidate is available. Do you choose a player who touches the ball at best 15 times a game, or a player who decides which play to run and where the ball goes on every play of a game. I will always go with the later.
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:12 AM ^
that Peyton Manning/Fat-Ass Philip Fulmer/ Tennessee fans made in 1997.
As far as GOAT, why not Lawrence Taylor?

I bet Tom would rather throw to healthy and sedate Randy Moss.
February 2nd, 2015 at 12:01 PM ^
I'm a homer admittedly: Moss was faster and Rice had better hands and ran routes like clockwork.
But man, Megatron is still absolutely ridiculous.
February 2nd, 2015 at 3:47 PM ^
February 2nd, 2015 at 4:48 PM ^
call into the Sean Belugian show about 3:30 today? There was a dude arguing this same thing. Belugian agreed with him, which means it is patently false.
February 2nd, 2015 at 5:58 PM ^
Rice had Joe Montana and Steve Young throwing to him his entire career. Brady's receiving corps has been a random collection of dudes that changed every year. Put any of the top 20 all time receivers on Brady's team for all those years and that guy would probably have Rice numbers and be considered in the conversation for best receiver of all time with Rice.
February 2nd, 2015 at 7:35 PM ^
The greatest pro I ever saw was Jim Brown. He was the original Beast, and he was beastly on every play.
February 2nd, 2015 at 9:41 AM ^
he's about as much as a movie star as Brett Favre right now (Soemthing About Mary)
February 2nd, 2015 at 10:47 AM ^
that part was kind of a joke
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:55 AM ^
I'm pretty sure most of us understood that.
February 2nd, 2015 at 8:43 AM ^
You're Blessed! And Brady repsonds: "Yeah! Blessed!"
February 2nd, 2015 at 9:09 AM ^
Funny, I didn't like that.
February 2nd, 2015 at 9:30 AM ^
February 2nd, 2015 at 8:47 AM ^
By all accounts, TH works incredibly hard studying film, practicing, weights, staying fit, etc. etc. Almost no one is going to out-prepare him. Other than his looks, much of the rest are just byproducts of his and the Patriots hard work. Many congrats to him though! I was so happy for him at the end of the game.
February 2nd, 2015 at 9:04 AM ^
True ... results are more often a result of preparation rather than luck.
"Fortunate" might have been the better word, but that word and "lucky" are often used interchangeably nowadays. (It's like "eager" and "anxious" are often inter-mixed.)
Brady is a hell of a QB ... they speak of the game "slowing down" for the good QBs ... to Brady it must all be in slow motion ... he sees it all and reacts to it in near perfect time.
February 2nd, 2015 at 10:01 AM ^
Don't forget genetics. In addition to a bunch of physical gifts, it takes a special ability to process what an NFL QB must do on every play. Only a handful of QB's at any given time have both the physical skills and the mind to be elite.
What makes Brady's achievement so outstanding is that, as Sam and Ira were noting this morning, he accomplished his SB wins in an era with salary caps. Montana and Bradshaw had tremendous stability in terms of their supporting cast of players. Brady has won four SB's and made it to six with some very good talent that consistently changed.
February 2nd, 2015 at 9:54 AM ^
Who the hell is TH? :P
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:35 AM ^
(TH) is (TB) because of the h's proximity to B. Pure speculation...... : P
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:38 AM ^
The H is silent.
February 2nd, 2015 at 1:46 PM ^
both come from Old Saxon meaning
"Winner who wields sword and shovel".
February 2nd, 2015 at 10:29 AM ^
when you make it to six superbowls the luck arguement loses a bit of its shine.
February 2nd, 2015 at 7:46 PM ^
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:59 AM ^
I got the impression that he meant that he's lucky to be part of a consistently good team. A lot of great QBs have spent their careers with mediocre teams. He'd still be considered great if he played for the Lions or Browns, but it's not likely he'd have achieved the same level of success.
February 2nd, 2015 at 8:50 AM ^
February 2nd, 2015 at 8:54 AM ^
never gets hurt, what's Tom Brady's life like then?
There was a certain amount of luck involved.
February 2nd, 2015 at 9:33 AM ^
February 2nd, 2015 at 11:02 AM ^
Nationwide.
February 2nd, 2015 at 10:03 AM ^
Or the tuck rule.
The thing is when the great ones catch a break they don't give it back.
