Tom Brady once showed up as a scrawny kid at practice, nobody thought he could have a football career. Now he goes as the undisputed best player in this sport and leaves a lesson for generations to come.

This picture. Tom Brady stands there wearing only gray love killer shorts. The shoulders are slumped, the right one a little more than the left; Abdominal muscles cannot be found even with an intensive search, but a bit of love handles. He looks like someone put him there against his will and didn’t pick him up, which is exactly what happened. This photo was taken in February 2000, and Brady had just completed an underwhelming practice session: he scrambled 5.24 seconds for 40 yards, missed the start of the cone steeplechase, and shoulders hung even more than the photo during throwing practice.
