After finally showing up for voluntary workouts with the New England Patriots, quarterback Tom Brady took a quick break from the team over the weekend to jet down to Brazil with his supermodel wife Gisele Bundchen and his three-month-old son Benjamin.
The Brady bunch was spotted at the Laurentia Vineyard outside Porto Alegre attending the wedding of Patricia Bundchen, Gisele's twin sister. The family looked dapper, with Brady sporting a simple suit, Gisele a pink spring dress and little Benjamin in a miniature tuxedo. As Gisele was the maid of honor, Brady took care of the little one, toting around a diaper bag.
Their stay in Brazil was however short, as news spread this week that the quarterback was back in Boston with the Patriots. Brady was also reportedly an ambassador for NFL Draft prospect Tim Tebow, with reports circulating that the two were slated to enjoy a dinner in the Boston area.
While the dinner rumor is unconfirmed, only tweeted by former Buffalo Bills running back Thurman Thomas, Tebow was seen out with the Patriots coaching staff this week, dining at an upscale restaurant on the North End.
Several have speculated that the Patriots may attempt to draft Tebow in the upcoming 2010 NFL Draft, bringing him to the team as an understudy to Brady. Head coach Bill Belichick wouldn't comment on the rumors, only stating that Tebow is "a good kid. There is a lot to like about him." Belichick also is a good buddy of Urban Meyer, Tebow's college coach at the University of Florida.
Comments
The Tebow dinner was just a rumor. Thurman Thomas and his wife later said he was just joking.
