TOO HOT TUESDAY!! NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS QB TOM BRADY

He may not be the latest Super Bowl MVP following the New England Patriots' loss to the New York Giants this past Sunday, but Tom Brady IS this week's official "THT" winner in our special Super Bowl-themed TOO Hot Tuesday!!

Tom Brady was born August 3, 1977, in San Mateo, California where he went on to attend Junipero Serra High School.  He played college football @ the University of Michigan, and was the team captain his senior year.  Brady was drafted by the New England Patriots in 2000 in what the NFL network has deemed "the greatest "steal" in the history of the NFL Draft".

Brady became the starting quarterback the following season and went on to lead the team to the first of three Super Bowl Championships that same year, when he was also named the Super Bowl XXXVI MVP . . . a title he would regain two years later during Super Bowl XXXVIII.  He led the Patriots to an undefeated regular game season in 2007, but they failed to make it a perfect season by not gaining the ultimate "feather in the cap" with Sunday night's Super Bowl loss.

In 2007, Brady put his sexy cleft chin and rugged good looks to use as a male model when he was selected to be the new "Stetson Man", and appeared in an ad campaign for the cologne.  It's reported that Brady refused to wear the iconic Stetson cowboy hat during the shoot, which caused some initial controversy, but I personally think the shots came out great.  Check out a few images from the campaign below:

Brady's personal life has been heavily featured in the gossip columns as of late. He dated actress Bridget Moynahan from 2004 until late 2006 . . . at which time he began dating Brazilian supermodel Giselle Bundchen. On February 18, 2007, Moynahan confirmed to PEOPLE magazine that she was more than three months pregnant with her and Brady's child, having gotten pregnant just before the two ended their relationship. Brady was present when the baby, John Edward Thomas Moynahan, was born on August 22, 2007 at Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica.

Despite the recent drama surrounding his personal life, Brady seems to be a relatively wholesome all-American kinda guy. I had trouble finding the shirtless photo of him below, which (to me at least) was surprising given the numerous photo shoots he has taken part in during the course of his career. Despite his movie-star looks, he is apparently modest about his appearance.  Go figure!

So there you have it . . . the uber-sexy Tom Brady. Enjoy! ~Warren
