Queer eye for this Brady guy: Ladies man Tom is gays’ fave, too

Tom Brady still has a ways to go before celebrating a fourth Super Bowl title, but gay men across the country have already embraced him as their champion
Gay-oriented sports Web sites from coast to coast are ablaze with desire for Tom Terrific.
“It’s equal rights. We get to look at him the same way women do, we get to want him the same way women do,” said “Robert,” a 41-year-old gay South Shore fan of the Patriots [team stats] heartthrob - one of many men jonesing to pit their pigskin palpitations against those of run-of-the-mill female groupies.
Robert said Brady, 29, who is rumored to be dating Gisele Bundchen, Victoria’s Secret’s spokes-bod, ought to be flattered the other team wants him on their side.
And Robert’s not talking about the Indianapolis Colts.
“We may not end up with him,” he said, chuckling, “but 99 percent of the women won’t, either.”
“Matt,” a self-described sports blogger and Iraq War Marine Corps veteran, doesn’t declare his sexual orientation online, but sure sounds obsessed with Brady, who he repeatedly calls “Dreamboat.”
“Tom Brady [stats] is the Derek Jeter of football,” Matt gushed Tuesday at withleather.com, “only hunkier and less annoying.”
Aghast that Manning bested Brady in a Sony poll of who women would rather drool over on TV, Jon Clougherty, 32, a gay “huge Colts fan” living in Boston, said, “There is no way - even though I will be in Indianapolis screaming my head off for Peyton and crew - that Manning outdoes Brady in the looks department. Tom’s a hunk, a dream boy, whatever you wanna call him. How ’bout HOT!”
Outsports.com, a Los Angeles-based Web site devoted to gay sports enthusiasts, named Brady an “Editors’ Pick” earlier this month for his playful on-field embrace of cornerback Asante Samuel after the Pats beat the New York Jets [team stats] in their Wild Card playoff match.
Brady also scores big with towleroad.com, “a blog with homosexual tendencies.” And who could forget “Brady,” the man-love ballad written for the quarterback that, as of last night, had been viewed 403,865 times on YouTube.com.
“We watch sports the way women watch sports,” he said. “I think we can share Tom.”
Enjoy Freepers, enjoy!!

You've just queered the superbowl for me.
TMI
Not exactly, Robert. Not exactly.
I wish Tom wasn't a metrosexual, but... Go Pats!
No wonder he's so good at scrambling!
I know the hometown papers are supposed to root for the team and all, but this is disgusting.............There's no swishing in football!.........
Where's Steve Grogan when you need him?
Do we really HAVE to insult the best sport on the planet, football with the fag issue? Can we just drop it !!!
Quarterback or Tightend?
It's those tight football pants that do it for me.
Tom's Girlfriend...
Now, in a normal Brady vs. Manning thread there would have been 50 posts the first 12 minutes from Brady fans running Peyton in the ground.Where y'all at?
These admirers are not Gay they are HOMOSEXUALS and they are mucking up the Globe.
Such trash talk is truly sick.
Yes, it just made cheering for THAT team a "homosexual team".
How could we exect anything else when Pepsi pushed to become the "gay soda" with a superbowl commercial.
Is there a reason he was segregated? Is he only being seen with a woman in order to have a beard?
These guys are dreaming if they think Brady will ever penetrate their end zone.
LOL!!
I hear ya.
