Tom Brady's Hair Transplant Secret

Publication: National Enquirer
Date: 29 November 2010

For the most part, the Only Ten Magazines That Matter leave athletes alone when they get involved in scandals, Tiger Woods being the obvious glaring exception. Other than Tiger, most of the other athletes mentioned this year only got noticed because their wives or girlfriends are of interest to the gossip rags. So it's a little odd that with the scandals that swirled around Super Bowl winning quarterbacks Brett Favre and Ben Roethlisberger this year, it's Super Bowl winner Tom Brady who makes it to the cover of The Flagship because he... has a hair transplant.

Allegedly.

Unlike Favre or Roethlisberger, Brady is married to someone famous in her own right, Victoria's Secret model Giselle Bundchen, but she isn't the kind of famous the supermarket rags are interested in.

This is a remarkably weak story and I'm surprised the Enquirer thinks the general public would care about this but not about Favre sending a picture of his private parts to some woman who refused to sleep with him.

Usually I hate The Flagship for having no sense of honor. Today I hate them for having no sense of perspective.
