Essay On Tom Brady

I chose Tom Brady as my manager for this project. I picked Tom Brady because he is one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time and he is very successful off the field in his business. I believe that Tom Brady is one of the greatest leaders of all time. Even though I am not a Patriots fan I still admire him. I admire how he was a late draft pick and no one believed in him. Or how he had an awful combine and was really weak and small. I think Tom Brady is one of the greatest leaders and hardest working athletes that I know.

Tom Brady is the quarterback of the New England Patriots. Tom played baseball and football at his high school in California. He played on his JV football team as the backup QB. That team never won a game.
