Tom Brady Shows Up at Rookie Mini-Camp

The New England Patriots held their rookie mini-camp this past weekend, and by all accounts it was certainly a success.  The rookie mini-camps signals a return to form for the Patriots.  It begins their post-draft workout routine and gives rookies their first taste of what life as a Patriot is all about.  Those rookies were the beneficiaries of a special visit this weekend when Tom Brady stopped by to work out and address each and every rookie, giving anyone who would listen his advice about NFL conditioning and practice, before taking off for the day.

This is what makes the New England Patriots special.  While Tom Brady is much-maligned for his famous girlfriends and his ability to attract the paparazzi from time to time, the man is clearly dedicated to his job as the quarterback of the Pats.  With three Super Bowls to his credit, I don’t believe anyone would take that away from him.  And yet, at times we forget that Brady is still a leader, still committed to his role as the man who sets the bar on the team.  He didn’t have to show up for rookie camp, but he did.  And that is something these rookies will never forget.
