[Husker] Re: NU v MU (fwd)

[Lynette Tillner]

Sorry, Tommy Brady DID start for Michigan.  They didn't have super
teams in those years but he was a good QB.  I don't think anyone
expected him to do what he's done in the NFL though.  He wasn't one
of those $50 Million bonus babies (like Alex Smith) that falls on his
face the first year, that's for sure!  

My son played Little League with Tommy.  He was always a "big" kid
and very athletic in all sports.  His 3 older sisters where Softball
stars at Hillsdale High School in San Mateo, California.  Hillsdale
had awesome Softball teams when those girls were there!  Brady's Dad
pushed all the kids in their sports endeavors.  

My 2 cents here. 

What an awesome win last night!  Go BIG RED!
