When the New England Patriots kick off their eighth training camp practice later today, it will not take long for the fans in attendance to recognize a birthday: Tom Brady turns 41 today, and the signs and songs honoring the NFL’s greatest ever quarterback will surely be plentiful. Brady has celebrated each of his birthdays since the year 2000 during the Patriots’ camp – and things have changed quite a bit since then.
“Over the last few seasons I’ve become a lot more aware of time, in general. It’s not just training camp or football – it’s everything,” Brady recently told Religion of Sports.
