    Even in these down times, good things can happen to Yankee fans who keep the faith. And here is a collector's edition photo of Patriot QB Tom Brady strolling the streets of Manahattan yesterday with his squeeze.

    Not only are they a fetching couple but Tom is rocking a New York Yankee cap ( note the interlocking NY ). This is suitbale for framing. Next time I am at the House that Ruth Built I will see if Tommy will autograph a couple for the JIf Mesiter and BDR. 8)

    Put a lid on it, Tom! But please, make it a Sox lid
    By Gayle Fee and Laura Raposa

    Say it ain’t so, Tom!

    The ever-vigilant paparazzi snapped New England Patriots [team stats] QB/QT Tom Brady [stats] sashaying through the streets of New York City yesterday shamelessly sporting a New York Yankees cap!

    Tom and his galpal, soon to be ex-Victoria’s Secret model Gisele Bundchen, were strolling hand-in-hand in the West Village when he was snapped committing the horrid topper transgression.

    Red Sox Nation was shocked and appalled and - as is our way - making excuses for the Bronx Bombers blasphemy.

    “We know that Tom has an array of Red Sox caps from which to choose,” said team spokesguy Dr. Charles Steinberg. “But we fully respect that he needed to wear a suitable disguise for his own health and protection. We don’t doubt that he’s a card-carrying member of Red Sox Nation.”

    Perhaps Tom was wearing the hat as a sympathy gesture. Alex Rodriguez & Co. are, after all, in last place.

    But avid Brady Bunchers know this isn’t the first time No. 12 has committed the ultimate in homer heresy. We told you way back in 2003 that Tom was sporting a Pinstripes lid when our ever-vigilant spies spotted him fueling up at a Dunkin’ Donuts in Foxboro.

    At the time, the excuse was that it was a gesture of solidarity with then-Yankees rookie Drew Henson, who, like Tom, is a former quarterback for the University of Michigan. Of course, that lame-o rationalization has gone by the boards now that Henson has ditched MLB for the NFL to play third-string quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings.

    And although Tom has sported a Sox cap on numerous occasions - including during a Super Bowl XXXVIII press conference - and he was in the Fenway stands rooting for Josh Beckett [stats] & Co. on Opening Day, he has been busted in Bombers’ mode before. He was also, need we remind you, caught in flagrante with A-Rod at Tao in NYC, shortly after the Yankees third baseman was declared Public Enemy No. 1 for slapping Bronson Arroyo! :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Of course, most of Tom’s Yankee-lovin’ has come when he’s been conveniently outside the jurisdiction. And now that the lovesick stud has semi-permanently relocated himself to the Big Apple - to be closer to Gi - he’s apparently in a New York (Yankees) state of mind!

    I'm not sure who you're quoting, Georgie, but apparently hate affected their grammar as well. :wink:


    As far as the Yankees lid, well, I guess you just have to take the good with the bad (and the ugly)...

    I just heard on the Yankee broadcast that Jeter has hit safely in 57 of his last 59 games.

    Wow :shock:

    A closer look reveals the reason for the yankee hat. Note Brady's right shoulder...

    Are you saying that JIF's QB is a swashbuckler?

    Not at all. But Brady is walking with a fashion model, the type of person that would insist on coordinating accessories such as purses and hats. It's just important to some people. Here's another example...

    BDR, nice touch.

    I would suggest to him that he wear it to his induction ceremony in Cooperstown which should be a scant few years after his 800th career homerun. :wink:

    I'd say about five years after his last home run, Buck-T, and I hope he wears it as well.

    I understand Cooperstown is considering moving the ceremony to April for the year of his induction. Fitting. :wink:

    Far be it from me to argue a point about April baseball with a RedSox fan.....with near a century record of successes, there can be no better authority! :wink:

    Jiffy, I never cease to be amazed that the RedSox didn't have a player worth a damn for over 90 years....not one. How can that be?
