If Tom Brady Were A...

Adam was reading this hilarious "If Tom Brady Were A..." (ITBWA...) column on Sunday to MGDub and me. Here's a sampling:

ITBWA..."television star he'd be Richie Cunningham, ever polite, always trying to do the right thing. He'd be the perfect son, and a great brother. He'd drink milkshakes and eat cheeseburgers with Ralph Malph and Potsie."

ITBWA..."beverage he'd be a tall glass of cold milk. Wholesome. Healthy. Good for the bones and those dazzling white teeth."

Later that day, the East Coast contingent of Team Bridesmaid gathered for brunch before going dress shopping. We batted around ideas for other If Tom Brady Were A... ideas. There were no takers for my inanimate object question, "If Tom Brady were a piece of jewelry...?" We decided that he would be Kermit if he were a Muppet because he definitely wouldn't be Miss Piggy. After much debate, we decided that Tom Brady would be Matt Damon (not Brad or Ben) if he were a movie star. Unbeknownst to us, Adam had neglected to read out load this relevant portion of the article:

ITBWA..."movie star he'd be Matt Damon -- modest, mindful of his roots, careful not to take on roles that don't fit, able to stay grounded in a starstruck environment, and smiling sheepishly when the compliments get too thick."

It's good to know the professionals agree with Team Bridesmaid's assessment and verdict.
