Tom Brady
If he could do something over, he would not have let his post Super Bowl commitments keep him from his annual vacation with his father. He would have shared more of his success with friends. He would have skipped some of the parties.

His time remains at a premium, but he will not let it interfere with what is truly important to him. When, for instance, offensive coordinator Charlie Weis awoke from stomach reduction surgery that initially left him comatose, the first person he saw was his wife. The second was his young quarterback, who had kept a vigil at his bedside.

"He said, `If I didn't come, I was afraid you were going to yell at me again,' " Weis recalled. "He stayed for 48 hours. He even told my wife, `Go. Eat.' I'll wait here.' "

2. OH BOY
Wow! what a story. Gee i think you ought to nominate him for the Nobel Prize! In fact I think they should just bypass the Nomination and give it too him directly. I can see it now, no speech, the Members of the Nobel committee just carry him out on their shoulders as confetti showers down and the crowd chants "BRADY NUMBER 1!!"

4. Yeah, I really like Tom, but this story is a little much....
...leave it to the media to either hate someone or want to sleep with them!

5. God! I'm so sick of the Super Bowl!
And it hasn't even happened yet. Hardly anything on the news this morning but the game...showing alot of stupid looking Pats fans in Texas. One guy said he'd spent $60,000 over the years on the Pats...Jesus...I wonder if his kids are going to be able to go to college. And then there are news stories about the ads...about the ads. I just don't get it. :eyes:

6. I was in Houston yesterday...
not for any Super Bowl related nonsense, just visiting friends. And I have NEVER seen so many people in one place before in my life. Driving through Houston was a mess. *big sigh* I am SO happy tp be home.

8. I don't like the NFL
I can't get caught up in the Pats hoopla and thankfully my husband isn't a football fan either. My sisters think I'm nuts but I'm counting the days til spring training. :)

It's all over the news, the papers, the radio. Arghhhhhhhhh

The temps actually got above freezing today for the first time in years, I swear.
