When any beauty sports a new piece of hardware on her ring finger, people are going to ask questions. But when you’re Gisele Bundchen and you’re dating one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, everyone is going to be interested.
Bundchen was reportedly seen with the new ring when she stopped into LA’s Billion Dollar Brows salon and was quoted saying, by one attendant, “Tom bought it for me at Tiffany’! But I can’t wear it much around here. They are always at you.”She was referring to the paparazzi and why she’s afraid to show off the ring, raises speculation.
Now whether or not this was just a sweet little gift from Tommy boy or it was an actual engagement remains to be answered. I’m sure “they” will soon find out the truth about the meaning of that Tiffany’s ring.
There goes the perfect season and Tom Brady’s perfect Super Bowl record.
In what was supposed to be an easy win for the heavily favored New England Patriots, it turned into arguably the biggest upset in Super Bowl history. The New York Giants did what many believed was the unattainable, beating the Patriots 17-14 in Super Bowl XLII.
I watched the game and despite how close the Giants were willing to keep it, I really thought Bill Belichick and Brady would find a way to come through with a win like they had done the previous 18 games. And they almost did, as Brady drove the length of the field late in the game to take the lead, 14-10.
But it was Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning who was more Bradyesque than Brady himself. Manning led the Giants to a touchdown with under three minutes to play on a pass to Plaxico Burress. But it was wideout David Tyree who can take credit for keeping the drive alive.
On what looked to be a sure sack of Manning on 3rd and 5, the quarterback wiggled loose and heaved up a pass 32-yards downfield to Tyree, who pulled down one of the greatest catches in Super Bowl history. Tyree literally used all his arm and finger strength to come down with that catch. With Patriots safety Rodney Harrison covering, Tyree leaped and willed his way down with the ball over his head and with Harrison on his arm. After that catch, you just knew something remarkable was going to happen. That an upset was very near.
Now talks will switch to whether or not the Patriots season would mean anything with the Super Bowl loss.
18-1 and a Super Bowl loss doesn’t really have the same ring to it as 19-0.
Has Tom Brady revealed his achilles heel? Literally.
Well, apparently the New England Patriots quarterback has been spotted around Boston in a snazzy walking cast on his right foot. Now, how he did it and how severe the injury is, remains to be explained.
Although Brady said he’ll be ready to play in two weeks, the whole world will be keeping a close eye on that foot.
Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys were one of the many teams upset this weekend in the second round of the NFL Playoffs. Since Romo couldn’t lead his team to the NFC Championship Game, he can now spend some more PDA filled evenings with his new sweetheart, Jessica Simpson. I wonder if her parents will tag along again.
Here are the players who helped out their team this weekend and some who didn’t:
New York Giants 24, Dallas Cowboys 17
Eli Manning didn’t turn the ball over once and connected to Amani Toomer for two touchdown passes.
San Diego Chargers 28, Indianapolis Colts 24
Philip Rivers tossed for three touchdowns despite a non-existent LaDainian Tomlinson, who left with a leg injury.
Peyton Manning was his usual self with over 400-yards passing and four touchdowns, but it was his two interceptions in Charger territory that proved to be crucial.
New England Patriots 31, Jacksonville Jaguars 20
Tom Brady only threw two incomplete passes, connecting on 26 passes and throwing three touchdowns.
Green Bay Packers 42, Seattle Seahawks 20
Brett Favre and Ryan Grant each had three touchdowns, including 201 yards rushing for Grant.
Seattle’s running game was pretty much non-existent, as Shaun Alexander led the Seahawks with 20-yards.
Tom Brady is at is again, but Adrian Peterson was shutdown and held to only three rushing yards. Here are the players that made an impact this weekend.

Eagles running back Brian Westbrook had 116 yards rushing, 38 yards rushing and touchdown.
Here are the best of the best in NFL action yesterday. And surprisingly, Tom Brady wasn’t the most dominant player this weekend.
In a heartbreaking loss to the 49ers, Kurt Warner tossed for a staggering 484 yards and 2 touchdowns, but it was his costly fumble in the end zone that lost the game for the Cardinals.
Frank Gore did it all for the 49ers, running for 116 yards with 2 touchdowns and catching 11 passes for 98 yards.

Brett Favre was up there with Kurt Warner in terms of stats, but led the Packers to a win with 381 yards and 3 touchdowns.
Kellen Winslow caught 10 passes for 107 yards and a touchdown.
Drew Brees threw for 3 touchdowns and rushed for another one in a win over Carolina.
Chad Johnson had 3 touchdowns and 103 yards receiving on 12 catches.
Tom Brady passed for 380 yards and only 1 touchdown.
Here are the best of the best in NFL action yesterday. If you had one of these guys on your team this weekend, your team probably did really well.
I feel like I’m repeating myself every weekend, but here it goes. Patriots quarterbackTom Brady threw for 5 touchdowns. Again. And had over 300 yards. Again. Actually, 373 yards to be exact. The man has 38 touchdowns through 10 games this year.

Vikings running back Chester Taylor filled in nicely for the injured Adrian Peterson, capping off the day with 164 yards and three touchdowns.
