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.”
LOL!
Just be thankful that none of these people listed their occupation as "NFL center".
In his dreams.
I'm sure Brady is really honored. Not.
Covering what this crowd thinks about him should be an embarassment and if I were Brady I'd be furious.
Obviously you've never played "Smear the Queer".
Has Brady issued a statement repudiating these gays?
Yes, we played it, but when I was a kid in The South, we called it "One MAN for Himself"..........I never knew of the other name until I was an adult beyond 30......
waiting for the requisite tight end jokes......
___________
I think in this case Brady has a lot of willing WIDE RECIEVERS
I'd say there's a whole bunch of linebackers and free safeties who'd "hit it".
So to speak.
The writer should be fired.
The writer should be flogged.
Somehow I doubt that.
Speaking of old Patriot QB's, does anyone remember the name of the back-up QB to Jim Plunkett in 1972? The guy would fit right in with this article. His name was...
Dick Shiner, I kid you not.
That's funny. Come to think of it, Tony "it's not my team" Eason was another one.
Video of skit from Saturday Night Live - "Sexual Harassment and You" starring Tom Brady - in his underwear!

Remeber Tony Eason? My dad told me, "Any guy thats nickname in college is Champagne, is no good."
Steve Grogan was awesome but I will always have a warm fuzzy for Jim Plunket. He was a man's man.
As I said to my brother-in-law last week when he asked me about my new HDTV...Brady looks even cuter :)
LOL, my wife is buying a 60" HDTV for the SB. Same reason !!
