'''Tom Brady''' is a [[National Football League]] (NFL) quarterback for the [[New England Patriots]]. He was born on August 3, 1977 in  San Mateo, [[California]]. He is 6 foot 4 and 225 pounds. He was suspended a record four games in 2015 for his alleged role in the Patriots' "Deflategate" scandal. Rather than apologize, Brady fought the suspension in court but ultimately lost at the appellate level. Brady has been the quarterback in the Super Bowl a record six times, winning it four times, in 2002, 2004, 2005 and 2015.  Brady received the "Sportsman of the Year" award from the magazine ''Sports Illustrated'' in 2005, which has not retracted the award despite the Deflategate scandal.

'''Tom Brady''' is a [[National Football League]] (NFL) quarterback for the [[New England Patriots]]. Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr. He is one of only two players, and the only quarterback, to win five Super Bowls, and the only player to win them all playing for one team. After playing college football for the University of Michigan, Brady was drafted by the Patriots in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft. In Brady's 15 seasons as a starter, he has quarterbacked the Patriots to seven Super Bowl appearances, the most for any player in history.

Brady has won four Super Bowl MVP awards (Super Bowl XXXVI, XXXVIII, XLIX, and LI), the most ever by a player, has won two regular season MVP awards (2007 and 2010), has been selected to 12 Pro Bowls, and has led his team to more division titles (14) than any other quarterback in NFL history. Brady is fourth all-time in career passing yards, fourth in career touchdown passes, and third in career passer rating. His career postseason record is 25–9, winning more playoff games than any other quarterback, and he has appeared in more playoff games than any player at any position. His 208 combined regular-season and postseason wins are also the most of any quarterback in NFL history. Because of his accomplishments and accolades, many analysts and sportswriters consider Brady to be among the greatest quarterbacks of all time, and because of his late draft selection Brady is considered to be the biggest "steal" in the history of the NFL Draft.

During the 2016 to 2017 NFL season Brady became the target of a great deal of scrutiny from many left wing fake news organizations, such as the Huffington Post. These organizations were largely angry with Brady's strong support of his dear friend Donald Trump's campaign for President. Brady has in the past been seen with a "Make America Great Again" hat in his locker and has spoken of his strong friendship with Donald Trump. Both Brady and his head coach Bill Belichick endorsed the future President Trump prior to the general election. Trump announced their endorsements during a rally in New Hampshire.

Prior to the 2016 attacks by fake news against Brady he has been subtly politically active on other occasions. He refused to visit Barack Obama at the White House following Super Bowl XLIX and was frequently a gold partner of former President George H.W. Bush in the early 2000's. Brady went out of his way to attend State of the Union addresses by George W. Bush, and has been blessed at the Vatican by Pope John Paul II.
