Growing up in New England, I am sure we have all known what Sunday’s in the fall meant. It meant our dad’s were up early, with their Patriot’s gear on, already getting started on a beer and fresh batch of wings. Luckily for me, I grew up with the opportunity to go to many games at Gillette with my season ticket holder dad. Watching Tom Brady run out on the field seems to be every middle aged man’s most exciting moment. The fireworks go off and that famous AC DC song starts blaring throughout the stadium. The “TB12” chants begin as soon as the world famous quarterback begins to warm up. So why is Tom Brady recognized as a God? Isn’t one of the ten commandments “Thou shalt have no other gods before me”? Here are five reasons why Tom Brady is the only exception.

1. Him and his supermodel wife, Gisele Bundchen, are single-handedly one of the wealthiest, attractive, successful couples in the world.

2. His dream house and perfect kids add to his image as the literal “American Dream”

3. Besides being one of the greatest quarterbacks in history, he somehow manages to have time to be a model (and a good one I might add)

4. His priceless reactions will forever go down in Patriot’s history

5. Tom Brady is easily the most hated quarterback in the league but has still managed to bring home four Super Bowl rings during his career.
